screen (5.0.1-3) unstable; urgency=medium

  * Screen now sets TERM=screen5 by default in /etc/screenrc.
    You may hit compatibility issues when you ssh from inside screen
    to a remote host without the screen5 terminfo. Remote full-screen programs 
    can fail with errors such as:
      'screen5': unknown terminal type.
    Quick workaround:
      TERM=screen ssh host.example
    For persistent per-host/per-user workarounds, see the "Debian Screen Q&A"
    section in /usr/share/doc/screen/README.Debian.gz.
  * Default bufferfile moved from /tmp/screen-exchange to
    $HOME/.screen-exchange.
    No action is needed unless you use readbuf/writebuf (without an
    explicit filename) or custom scripts that reference /tmp/screen-exchange.
    Update scripts/tools to use $HOME/.screen-exchange, or set your own
    bufferfile in ~/.screenrc.

screen (5.0.1-1) unstable; urgency=medium

  * 24-bit colours can be enabled with "truecolor on"
  * hardstatus/caption %{...} colour syntax changed: old letter-based
    colour codes (e.g. %{= kr}) no longer work; use numeric/hex forms
    (e.g. %{1;0}, %{#F00;#000}).
  * Use "auth [on|off]" (off by default) if you previously relied on the
    old "password" command
  * Legacy commands time, debug, password, maxwin, nethack, and the
    deflogin/login bindings no longer exist.
    Remove them from your screenrc files.
