Comment 4 for bug 224446

partman-target (55ubuntu1) intrepid; urgency=low

  [ Evan Dandrea ]
  * Ensure that if we clear the root partition, / is owned by root:root
    (LP: #224446).

  [ Colin Watson ]
  * Resynchronise with Debian. Remaining changes:
    - Use UUID= fstab syntax for all partitions if a UUID is available, and
      add a comment above each UUID to indicate the corresponding device at
      install time.
    - Disable automatic mounting of USB removable devices.
    - Don't use UUIDs in fstab for those device types that volumeid.postinst
      refuses to convert.
    - Mount CD-ROMs and floppies with 'exec'.
    - Use the path of the file associated with a loop device in /etc/fstab,
      rather than the filesystem's UUID or the loop device path.
    - Always set the loop option for loop devices.
    - Remove critical system files from the existing filesystem before
      installing.
    - Preserve the UID and GID of the initial user, if possible. Requires a
      patch to user-setup.
    - Mount CD-ROMs and floppies with the "utf8" option by default.
