Changelog

mdadm (4.2-5ubuntu1) lunar; urgency=medium

  * Merge from Debian unstable, remaining changes:
    - Ship finalrd hook.
    - Do not install mdadm-shutdown.service on Ubuntu.
    - Drop broken and unused init scripts in favor of native systemd units,
      which can cause failure to reconfigure mdadm package under certain
      confiment types.
    - Drop /etc/cron.d/mdadm and migrate to systemd mdcheck_start|continue
      timer units.
    - Drop /etc/cron.daily/mdadm and migrate to system mdmonitor-oneshot
      timer unit.
    - mdcheck_start.timer configures the mdcheck on a first sunday of the
      month, with a randomized start delay of up to 24h, and runs for at
      most 6h. mdcheck_continue.timer kicks off daily, with a randomized
      start delay of up to 12h, and continues mdcheck for at most 6h.
    - mdmonitor-oneshot.timer runs daily, with a randomized start delay of
      up to 24h.
    - One can use systemd drop-ins to change .timer units timings, set
      environmental variables to decrease/increase the length of checking,
      or start the checks by hand. Previously used checkarray is still
      available, albeit not used by timer units.
    - Above ensures that previous daily / monthly checks are performed, but
      are randomized, such that performance is not as impacted across a
      cluster of machines.
    - Honor the debconf daily autoscan setting in the systemd timer.
    - d/p/mdcheck-fix-empty-spaces-in-timer-unit-files.patch:
      - The spaces were causing a FTBFS situation, triggered by
        dh_installsystemd not finding units.
    - Mention mdmonitor-oneshot.service instead of /etc/cron.daily/mdadm
      in /etc/default/mdadm
  * Dropped changes, included in Debian:
    - Install /usr/share/apport/package-hooks/source_mdadm.py with install
      instead of a second call to dh_install, which clears the execute
      permission on /usr/share/mdadm/mdcheck
    - Drop /lib/udev/rules.d/64-md-raid-assembly.rules from mdadm-udeb,
      no longer built
    - Ship /etc/mdadm directory again to prevent dpkg warning:
      unable to delete old directory '/etc/mdadm': Directory not empty
    - Display $(DEB_VENDOR) $(DEB_VERSION) in mdadm --version output

    mdadm-udeb, no longer built there
