========================================================================
WHY PACKAGING THIS?
========================================================================
A ~40KB pure C99 screen color CLI for X11 and Wayland that solves
15-year-old legacy engine bugs in Redshift and Gammastep.

CORE ARCHITECTURE & TECHNICAL HIGHLIGHTS:
 - Pure C99 & Micro-Footprint: Compiles to a ~40KB binary with near-zero
   memory footprint; reconstructs active gamma ramps directly from hardware
   state without running background daemons.
 - Modular Wayland Plugin Design: Uses dynamic runtime plugin loading to
   isolate Wayland protocol code (wlr-gamma-control-unstable-v1),
preventing
   a runtime dependency on libwayland-client on pure X11 installations.
 - Fixes 15-Year-Old Legacy Engine Bugs: Resolves long-standing X11/RandR
   issues found in legacy tools (Redshift, Gammastep, sct):
   * Fixes "Hotplug Chaos" (display index/array swapping during hotplugs).
   * Eliminates synchronous blocking XCB round-trips.

QUALITY & MAINTAINERSHIP:
 - I am the upstream author and active maintainer.
 - The package is 100% Lintian clean (0 errors, 0 warnings).
 - Technical feedback, code reviews, and packaging suggestions are highly
welcome and appreciated!
========================================================================

Changes for the initial release:

 qredshift (1.0.0-1) unstable; urgency=medium
 .
   * Initial release of standalone QRedshift. (Closes: #1143208)
   * Added Wayland support via wlr-gamma-control-unstable-v1 protocol.
   * Added dynamic backend loading via dlopen().
   * Added native multi-monitor control (-d flag).
   * Upgraded packaging to source format 3.0 (quilt).
