* New upstream release 12-8 (2012-08-15) (8.982).

* The radeon backlisting is now handled by glx-alternative-fglrx.
  - Bump glx-alternative-fglrx dependency accordingly.
  - Remove obsolete conffile /etc/modprobe.d/fglrx-driver.conf.
  - Purging fglrx-driver is no longer required for switching to Radeon.
* debian/watch: Mangle the version of upstream beta releases.
* debian/rules get-orig-source:
  - Support "funny" upstream naming schemes by allowing RVER and ZVER
    overrides for the version number used in the .run and .zip files.
  - Download beta releases and mangle their version.
  - Repack into .xz, about 24% size reduction over .bz2.
* Switch .deb compression to xz, saves 12 MB (27 %) on amd64.
