swi-prolog (8.2.0+dfsg-2) unstable; urgency=medium
SWI-Prolog core system is now shipped in swi-prolog-core package,
which provides SWI-Prolog interpreter itself. SWI-Prolog core
packages, which do not depend on external libraries (except zlib) are
now shipped in swi-prolog-core-packages package. Previously core
system and core packages where shipped in swi-prolog-nox, but there
were some requests to provides these components separately to reduce
install size of SWI-Prolog basic setup and reduce the number of its
dependencies.
Also, swi-prolog-core now provides the following virtual packages:
swi-prolog-abi-$(swi-prolog:ABI)
swi-prolog-api-foreign-$(swi-prolog:FABI)
swi-prolog-abi-binary-${swi-prolog:BABI}
swi-prolog-abi-qlf-${swi-prolog:QLF}
swi-prolog-abi-states-${swi-prolog:SSTATES}
The names of these virtual packages are based on the output of
$ swipl --abi_version
Other packages may depend on specific SWI-Prolog ABI or ABI compotent.
or FABI (see, README.Debian for more information).

Documentation (including interactive documentation) and examples are
shipped now in swi-prolog-doc, which is Recommended. Without
installing this package it is not possible to use help query in
SWI-Prolog interactive interpreter, but it saves some disk space for
those who don't need it.
