  it an empty password. In this day and age the latter is not really a
  defensible default (LP: #296841).
* Update description of dip group, based on a suggestion by Osamu Aoki
  (closes: #512938).

* Moved to bzr.debian.org; add Vcs-Bzr control field.

  (thanks, Nicolas François; closes: #326550).

Add and document static group plugdev, gid 46, for use by pmount and
similar tools to allow local users to mount removable devices without
the need for entries in /etc/fstab (closes: #283233).
