  + Updated translations.

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Wed Sep 19 09:11:13 UTC 2012 - dimstar@opensuse.org

- Update to version 3.5.92:
  + Fix running 'gnome-boxes filename.iso' from the command line
  + Fix changing the amount of RAM when libvirt-glib 0.1.3 or newer
    is used
  + Make sure all running boxes are finished suspending before
    exiting Boxes

  + Updated translations.

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Fri Sep  7 18:01:59 UTC 2012 - vuntz@opensuse.org

- Create a gnome-shell-search-provider-boxes for the GNOME Shell
  search provider. It will automatically be installed if
  gnome-boxes and gnome-shell are installed.
- Add a gnome-shell BuildRequires for directory ownership.

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Mon Sep  3 20:26:29 UTC 2012 - dimstar@opensuse.org

- Update to version 3.5.91:
  + Download OS logos on demand instead of shipping them in
    gnome-boxes or in a non-free package.
  + Allow to customize box memory and maximum disk size before
    creating it.
  + More responsive box removals.
  + Make stopped/saved boxes easier to distinguish. Saved boxes
    show a grayed out thumbnail of their display and stopped boxes
    show a black screen.
  + Add the ability to use an additional ISO with extra Windows
    drivers for use during unattended installs. For now, Boxes can
    use it to install the Windows system to a virtio disk. It also
    needs to be made available manually (this will be improved at a
    later point), 'make win-tools.iso' can be used to download it,
  + Tweak auto-hiding of fullscreen toolbar.
  + Improve box display scaling (when using a very recent
    spice-gtk).
  + Various UI fixes and improvements.
  + Updated translations.

Tue Aug 21 20:55:37 UTC 2012 - dimstar@opensuse.org

- Update to version 3.5.90:
  + Add search feature, both inside Boxes and in GNOME Shell.
  + Selection view now looks a lot prettier (i-e like in
    gnome-documents) and we now retain the selection when switching
    away from selection view.
  + Add an info text column under the box in collection view.
    Currently its used to indicate installation or live status of
    VMs.
  + Asynchronously launch machines so the UI doesn't hang and user
    sees that something is actually happening.
  + Make 'favorite' button in selection view, actually work.
  + Express installation:
    - Use the new info text column to show the progress of the
      installation.
    - Don't set SPICE password. Our own created VMs are supposed to
      be private to user (at least by default) so there is no need
      to add password protection to display connection.
    - Allow password-less Fedora VM, just like Windows XP and 7.
    - Require user to input product key for Windows XP.
    - Remove work around for broken QXL drivers on Fedora 16 ISOs.
    - Use the new schemas for detecting the keyboard layout.
  + 'check' commandline option:
     - Add a check for SELinux context.
     - Add check for whether we have the kvm capability on
       qemu:///session.
     - Prettier output.
  + Add 'open-uuid' commandline option that allows to open a box by
    its UUID.
  + Fixes to satisfy recent valac.
  + Fix issue of Fedora installations looping forever.
  + Fix a series of small issues in the UI.
  + Updated translations.
- Add pkgconfig(uuid) BuildRequires: new dependency.

  + Create VM based on host capabilities: Choose the virtualization
    type (KVM or Qemu), architecture and features (acpi, apic and
    pae) of the created domain based on host capabilities. This
    means we now allow creation of VMs even when KVM is not
    available.

- Update to version 3.4.1:
  + Express installation:
    - Require password for Fedora express installation since

      selection page.
    - Forget the selected file/URL when box creation is cancelled.
    - Install Fedora 16 and older from remote repository.
    - Add SPICE agent channel to newly created domains so that
      features like copy&paste with client/host work for guests
      with vdagent drivers installed.
    - Sane default sound and video devices for unknown OSs.
  + Rid of theme parser warnings.
  + Bugs fixed: bgo#670306, bgo#672159, bgo#672160, bgo#672528,

Tue Mar  6 17:55:46 UTC 2012 - dimstar@opensuse.org

- Update to version 3.3.91:
  + Box creation wizard:
    - Correct architecture comparison so that all medias don't get
      presented as 64-bit.
    - Present OS logos. Due to legal reasons, we are currently
      limited to Debian, Fedora, Ubuntu and openSUSE.
    - More reliable way to retrieve user's avatar.
    - Fedora express install: Correct commandline to add user to
      'wheel' group.
  + Instead of presenting a boring empty space on first launch,
    start the wizard.
  + Allow changing of RAM allocation and storage capacity.
  + Disable screenshots when machine is deleted.
  + Some other functional and non-functional improvements and fixes
  + Bugs fixed: bgo#664774, bgo#670003, bgo#670539, bgo#670573,

Tue Feb 21 20:05:53 UTC 2012 - dimstar@opensuse.org

- Update to version 3.3.90:
  + Box creation wizard:
    - Present bootable medias and user's ISO files on 'Source'
      page. For fetching/tracking user's ISOs, we make use of
      Tracker.
    - Teach the Wizard to accept 'qemu..://' sources.
    - Move to 'Preparation' once file/media is selected.
    - Display notification against errors during 'prepare' and
      'create' steps. In case of 'prepare', we go back to previous
      step since user is very likely to be able to fix the issue.
    - Add mnemonic accelerator to 'Continue' button.
  + More reliable tracking of installations. Previously, Boxes used
    to forget ongoing installations once user quit the application
    and that would lead to installations looping forever.
  + Don't take post-installation steps for saved domains. Saved
    domains are stopped as well so them being stopped doesn't mean
    that first boot is done and its time to perform post install
    setup.
  + Launch new domain in fullscreen, unless express installations
    is going to be performed on it.
  + Make user deletion work for saved VMs.
  + Leave fullscreen when going back to collection view.
  + Fix the white triangle stats graph.
  + Ability to disable source by manually editing source file.
    Useful for debugging.

Tue Feb  7 22:48:03 UTC 2012 - dimstar@opensuse.org

- Update to version 3.3.5:
  + Fix startup against latest gtk+.

    using XDG_CONFIG_DIR as VM image directory.
  + Don't choke on unknown installer media.
  + Fix build against git master of libvirt-glib.
  + Confine file chooser dialog in creation wizard to local
    filesystem.
  + Be slightly helpful to users when they are typing URL manually
    in creation wizard.
  + Fix recent regression in non-express installations.
  + Express install:
    + Support 32-bit Windows 7.
    + Add user to 'wheel' group in Fedora, rather than editing the
      sudoers file.
  + Disable screenshots on machine deletion.
  + Choose resources according to media architecture.
  + Don't use gettext since we're using intltool.

  + Box creation wizard:
    - Don't accept empty URL.
    - Add a sound card device.
    - Add devices based on what is supported by the OS.
    - Put VM images in XDG_DATA_DIR, not XDG_CONFIG_DIR.
    - Express install:
      . Fix a race-condition by adding a missing 'yield' keyword.
      . Disable first boot menu for Fedora.
      . Single password setup: User now need to only authenticate
        once when selecting the box using the password provided at
        box creation time and not inside the guest.
      . Use floppy image only for Windows OSs.
  + Use ngettext where appropriate.
  + Various other functional and non-functional improvements and
    fixes.
  + Bugs fixed: bgo#665812, bgo#666354, bgo#666355, bgo#666366,

  + Updated translations:
- Changes from version 3.3.3:
  + Instead of manually writing the libvirt's XML strings, we now
    make use of libvirt-gconfig to deal with the XML for us.
  + Protect user from accidental deletion of boxes by providing an
    'undo' button until after 6 seconds of deletion.
  + Rely on libvirt for automatic assignment of unique SPICE port
    for new VMs.
  + Don't destroy boxes on reboot.
  + Also entertain medias of i686 architecture.
  + Define a log domain for easier filtering of console log.
  + Adapt to libosinfo 0.0.3 API for better OS media detection.
  + Make the VM thumbnail in the properties view insensitive.
  + Box creation wizard:
    - Make wizard topbar a real toolbar. This way, the window can
      be moved, and it can be styled correctly.
    - Only return from wizard to collection view if box creation
      succeeds.
    - Skip directly to 'Preparation' step when URI is passed
      through commandline argument.
    - Bump default storage allocation to 20 GiB.
      . This should be adequate storage for most OSs out there.
      . We use the dynamically growing storage format (qcow2) so
        actual amount of disk space used is completely dependent on
        the OS.
    - Special handling of live and unknown OS media:
      . Create initially transient box and only make it permanent
        if media installs anything on the storage.
      . Skip 'Setup' and 'Review' pages.
    - Only boot new VMs from hard drive after something is actually
      installed on the storage.
    - Accept path for URI as well.

        OS.
      . UI to set admin and user password.
      . UI for specifying product key for Windows XP and 2003.
        Note that product keys are not required by recent Windows
        (Vista, 7  and 2008) installers.
      . Install QXL on Fedora guests to take full advantage of
        SPICE's efficiency.
      . Enable X/graphics for Fedora.
      . Add user to admin group for Fedora.
      . Automatically timezone and keyboard layout setup. This
        currently only works for Fedora.
      . Automatically language setup. Currently it only works for
        Windows 7, Windows 2008 and Fedora.
      . Fix user account setup for Windows 7 and 2008.
      . Fix some fundamental issues with Windows 2008. Now at least
        most of the installation is automated.
      . Fix express installation floppy image and in turn express
        installation of Microsoft Windows XP.
