* Sun Apr 24 2016 jengelh@inai.de
- Update to new upstream release 7.6.32
- Remove boinc-client-AM_CONDITIONAL.patch, boinc-configure.patch
  (no longer needed)
* Fri Apr 22 2016 aaronpuchert@alice-dsl.net
- Replaced quick fix for compiler errors by a proper solution,
  which is already upstreamed.
- Removed dependency to mysql, because that is only needed for the
  BOINC server, which we don't build anyway.
- Removed dependency to libboinc, because it's meant to be
  statically linked to science apps and not necessary for end user.
* Sun Mar 27 2016 aaronpuchert@alice-dsl.net
- Update to version 7.6.22. The main advantage: GPUs running on
  the open source stack (Mesa) are now recognized and can be used
  for BOINC. Additional packages are needed though:
  * libOpenCL1,
  * libMesaOpenCL,
  * libclc.
  Further, the GPU device in /dev/dri needs to have r+w rights for
  the BOINC user, since it doesn't have access to the X session.
- Fetch from GitHub instead of SVN, removed the fetch script
- Rebased all patches, removed obsolete boinc-LC_MESSAGES.patch
- Fixed compiler errors because openSUSEs wxWidgets is configured
  with wxUSE_STL=1, which is incompatible with BOINC. There is an
  open issue on GitHub: https://github.com/BOINC/boinc/issues/1515.
- Building the manager and locales separately is no longer
  necessary.
- The icons seem to have disappeared.
- The BOINC manager should be called with the data directory
  instead of the binary directory. Otherwise it can't connect.
* Wed Jun 24 2015 jengelh@inai.de
- boinc-client.service: replace ControlGroup= by Slice=, since
  ControlGroup is gone since systemd-205 already. We now use the
  "background.slice". Configuration of the background.slice is
  left to the administrator since it may be shared by other
  packages, and is subject to preferences. If you need some default
  to begin with for the first time,  use
  `systemctl set-property background.slice CPUShares=2`.
* Wed Mar 18 2015 jengelh@inai.de
- Reduce logrotate from Requires to Recommends.
- Remove Requires: cron. This seems only for the server parts
  (not in this package).
- Remove systemd requires to allow for a minimal container setup.
* Sun Nov 09 2014 Led <ledest@gmail.com>
- fix bashism in pre script
* Tue Jun 17 2014 tchvatal@suse.com
- Remove needless rpmlintrc lines to ease error spotting when there
  really are some.
* Tue Jun 17 2014 tchvatal@suse.com
- Cleanup with spec-cleaner for better readability
- Move lang packages from Requires to Recommends
* Tue Jun 17 2014 tchvatal@suse.com

  anyway
- Provide rcboinc symlink for easier usage.
* Wed Mar 26 2014 chris@computersalat.de

* Tue Aug 25 2020 Jan Engelhardt <jengelh@inai.de>
- Update to release 7.16.9
  * Linux client: fix X-based idle detection
  * Drop X11 fallback as Wayland can show a desktop session with no
    X11 servers, but XWayland can be started temporarily (and is
    useless for idle detection).
  * client: avoid CPU starvation when GPU computing is suspended
  * client: do nott allow an empty GUI RPC password
  * client: let a project master URL change from http: to https: without involving the user.
  * Fix CORS for GUI RPC via HTTP
  * Converted Java parts to Kotlin

  slightly different solution, though)

  * Let project specify directories in logical file names.

  * Enable "Other options" in simple view if no client connected.
  * Clear "vm_extensions_disabled" flag on startup.
  * Fix work fetch bug when max_concurrent used.
  * Unsuspend jobs before telling them to quit.
  * Sanity check job runtime limits.
  * Fix overflow in OpenCL GPU FLOPS calculation.
- Do not ignore errors from groupadd/useradd
* Tue Sep 10 2019 Christophe Giboudeaux <christophe@krop.fr>
- Build boinc-client using -ffat-lto-objects
* Sat Dec 15 2018 aaronpuchert@alice-dsl.net
- Update to version 7.14.2.
  * Fix GPU detection when run with --detach_console or using $PATH
  * Update NVIDIA GPU detection for recent models

  * If using a dynamic account manager, show AM user name in
    Manager rather than randomly-generated project account names
  * Move new-version URLs from cc_config.xml to nvc_config.xml
    (so that WCG can customize)
* Mon Aug 06 2018 jengelh@inai.de
- Remove unnecessary ldconfig from devel subpackage
* Tue Jul 24 2018 aaronpuchert@alice-dsl.net
- Update to version 7.12.1.
- Remove doc package, since the files have been removed from the
  source. Actually it wasn't even the documentation, but the
  server code.
- Disable idle detection via the XSS API and remove dependency to
  libXScrnSaver-devel. This feature requires access to a running
  X server, which the BOINC client does not have in OpenSUSE.
- Rename the devel package and provide the correct dependency.
  The devel package provides the headers for libboinc, and has
  nothing to do with the BOINC client.
- Add conflict to original devel package.
- Remove unnecessary dependency to libxslt.
- Update systemd service file with changes from upstream: start
  after network-online.target, and use "ProtectHome=true".
- Move bash completion file to /usr/share tree to fix rpmlint.
- Declare license files as %license.
- Don't install `notes` and `todo` - these are internal notes of
  the developers and not helpful to users.
- Drop 0001-MGR-support-wxWidgets-without-webview.patch, which has
  landed upstream (commit 27bb3c9e).
- libboinc-shared.patch: Build shared libraries for client and
  static libraries for science apps. Science apps are distributed
  as binaries over the BOINC network, so dynamic linking doesn't
  make sense. But we can use dynamic linking for the client.
- build-client-scripts.patch: Add some targets to fix build.
- Fix default path for boincscr.
* Wed Jul 11 2018 chris@computersalat.de
- Update to 7.8.6
  * can't find any useful ChangeLog :(
