vprerex provides a Qt interface to prerex by integrating the prerex editor with a PDF viewer. This allows conveying coordinates of course boxes, arrows and background points back to prerex through the use of the clipboard.
prerex is an editor for creating esthetically pleasing course prerequisite charts using the TikZ LaTeX package.
Course prerequisite charts allow students to easily determine which prerequisites, corequisites and recommended prerequisites they need for a given course and their time slots. Course prerequisite charts also highlight the courses required by a degree.
prerex is used by departments in several universities, including Queen's University and Suffolk University.

Ubuntu 20.04 focal/universe: Version 1:6.5.1-1 introduced
2020-01-07
- New upstream release: this marks a fork from the prerex source package into two source packages. Because prerex used to provide the vprerex package under the prerex version (which is greater than the vprerex version), we need to bump the epoch.
- Switch to Qt5 (Closes: #875104, #883503)
- Bump standards version to 4.1.3
- Dropped menu files
- Make Vcs-* URLs secure
- Updated copyright file
- Drop MimeType from desktop files
- Install and use vprerex icon
- Completely turn on hardening flags
- Update the watch file to point to CTAN.
- Build-depend on debhelper >= 11, bump compat level to 11, and drop dh-autoreconf because debhelper runs it for us under compat >= 10.
