Revision Date: 2008-03-17 23:16:20 UTC

[ Frans Pop ]
* Disable debugging output in boot scripts.

[ Otavio Salvador ]
* Applied patch from Robert Millan <rmh@aybabtu.com> to integrate
  win32-loader. Closes: #440220.
* Applied patch from Robert Millan <rmh@aybabtu.com> to fix image
  generation with read-only mirrors. Closes: #441397.
* Applied patch from Robert Millan <rmh@aybabtu.com> to use win32-loader
  for autorun when CD is being used on Windows. Closes: #441846.
* Exclude dhcp-client-udeb since it's not being used and transition for
  dhcp3-client-udeb has over.
* Exclude multipath-udeb and libaio1-udeb since they're not being use
  yet.
* Fix autorun.inf generation when win32-loader is present.
* Applied patch from Nicolas François <nicolas.francois@centraliens.net>
  to allow README.html translation using po4a.
* Remove the 'Last Modified' date from data/lenny/README.html.in since
  it's useless.
* Use DEBOOTSTRAP_SCRIPT, BASE_INCLUDE and BASE_EXCLUDE variables to
  calculate the base packages set
* Hide image creation command if not using verbosing make

[ Steve McIntyre ]
* Make daily i386/amd64 lenny builds work again - don't attempt to copy
  the win32-loader files into place if they don't exist.
* Remove Depends: on sysutils. Closes: #437497 (again)

[ Jérémy Bobbio ]
* README.html: Integrate a new look for README.html done by Kalle Söderman.
  Huge thanks to him!
* README: Improve the wording when building a netinst or business card by
  being a little bit more specific than just saying: CD 1 out of 1. This
  meant adding new defines "DISKTYPE$DISKTYPE".

[ Joey Hess ]
* Include dmraid deb. Closes: #443991
* Add acpi-support-base to generate_di+k_list.

[ Steve McIntyre ]
* Newer versions of debootstrap have moved the scripts from /usr/lib to
  /usr/share. Add a sym-link to cope - let's keep compatible with etch
  as much as possible. Also, log what debootstrap told us (in
  debootstrap-list) rather than just including the results directly in
  rawlist.

[ Frans Pop ]
* build_all.sh: don't source CONF.sh after already sourcing $CF earlier.
* CONF.sh: add non-invasive option to avoid sourcing CONF.sh twice when
  using wrapper scripts.
* CONF.sh: Don't set MAXCDS by default; was probably changed by accident.
* boot-{mipsel,sparc}: Parse website directory index case insensitive so
  that both "<a href=" and "<A HREF=" are recognized.
* Include busybox for architectures that use initramfs-tools; base-installer
  will try to install it.
* tools/update_tasks: ignore comments and blank lines in tasks/task.list.
* tasks/task.list*
  - add missing l10n tasks: gujarati-desktop, malayalam-desktop, tamil
  - comment out l10n tasks for languages not supported in D-I, for
    Icelandic, Irish, Serbian, Welsh and Xhosa
* lenny tasks: update for current task lists; set svn:keywords so the date
  header gets updated.
* Instead of including all alternative dependencies in list2cds, only
  include the first one. This reduces the size of the netinst and improves
  what's included on CD1. Only loss is console-{data,common,tools} so these
  are now added in generate_di+k_list. Reduces impact of #410418.
* exclude-udebs: exclude any libdirectfb udeb instead of particular version.
* exclude-udebs: exclude kbd-udeb and console-setup udebs (not yet used).
* During installation debootstrap will complain about an invalid Release file
  if there is no Packages file for the local section. Create an empty Packages
  file if one is missing.
* start_new_disc: make multi-arch CD/DVDs and CD/DVDs that are not part of a
  set (e.g. KDE/Xfce CDs) recognizable through info in .disk directory.
* Makefile: debootstrap no longer accepts options with empty values; change
  the way include/exclude options are passed accordingly.

[ Steve McIntyre ]
* Significant cleanup of list2cds. Closes: #451237
* tools/imagesums: use newer features in latest mkisofs/genisoimage to grab
  pre-calculated MD5 and SHA1 checksums directly from the jigdo file.

[ Otavio Salvador ]
* Make sure we include laptop-detect on arches that are know to have
  laptops (i386, amd64 and powerpc).
* Make sure we include grub-pc since it's used when GPT disk label is
  chosen.

[ Steve McIntyre ]
* Fix a bug in start_new_disc - cope with MAXCDS not being set.
* Temporarily disable boot support for arm CDs - the netwinder images are not
  being produced at the moment.

[ Raphael Hertzog ]
* Switch to genisoimage as default ISO generator as mkisofs has been dropped
  from Debian. Closes: #468850
* Add Vcs-Browser field.
* If genisomage is not available, try to fallback on mkisofs.
* New OMIT_DOC_TOOLS option to be able to work with mirrors that do not
  contain the doc and tools directories.

[ Frans Pop ]
* Ensure that the correct version of the Installation Guide is included.
* Lenny will be version 5.0.
