From 3853343918b7569df90d82d65e8bbb3313e8ceb0 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: deepend Date: Mon, 16 Feb 2026 14:34:23 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] Added a new 2.18.0-pre1 top entry in changelog.rst (dated 2026-02-16) for the GTK3/packaging work on this branch, and preserved the existing 2.17.4 entry instead of rewriting it. Added a new AppStream release block for 2.18.0-pre1 and restored the prior 2.17.4 release record, so release history remains additive. Fixed Debian changelog handling by prepending a new pre-release entry 2.18.0~pre1-1 and restoring the historical 2.17.0-1 / 2.17.0-0 entries unchanged. --- changelog.rst | 9 +++++++++ data/misc/net.zoite.Zoitechat.appdata.xml.in | 12 ++++++++++++ debian/changelog | 11 +++++++++++ debian/control | 2 +- meson.build | 2 +- packaging/solus/package.yml | 4 ++-- win32/version.txt | 2 +- 7 files changed, 37 insertions(+), 5 deletions(-) diff --git a/changelog.rst b/changelog.rst index 586cc8a5..ff58bd7f 100644 --- a/changelog.rst +++ b/changelog.rst @@ -1,6 +1,15 @@ ZoiteChat ChangeLog ================= +2.18.0-pre1 (2026-02-16) +------------------------ + +- Switched Debian packaging/builds to GTK 3 (Build-Depends, Meson flags, and package metadata). +- Added Debian package split install manifests so files are assigned to the correct binary packages. +- Fixed Debian packaging coverage for the man page and MIME XML to avoid unassigned-file (dh_missing) failures. +- Updated Debian CI packaging workflow and artifact upload paths for actions/upload-artifact@v4 compatibility. +- Improved GTK3 font consistency by applying the configured input font to channel tree and user list theming paths. + 2.17.4 (2026-02-03) ------------------- diff --git a/data/misc/net.zoite.Zoitechat.appdata.xml.in b/data/misc/net.zoite.Zoitechat.appdata.xml.in index c030cdd2..8c3280d6 100644 --- a/data/misc/net.zoite.Zoitechat.appdata.xml.in +++ b/data/misc/net.zoite.Zoitechat.appdata.xml.in @@ -25,6 +25,18 @@ zoitechat.desktop + + +
