bridge-utils (1.5-2ubuntu1) oneiric; urgency=low

  * Merge from Debian unstable (LP: #483427, LP: #377474).  Remaining changes:
    - Add an upstart job which triggers on each net-device-added event, to
      see whether we need to add this to a bridge.
  * Changes merged in Debian:
    - debian/rules, debian/bridge-utils.sh, debian/dirs, debian/ifupdown.sh:
      factor out the parsing of bridge_ports into a reusable shell library.
  * Replace the upstart job with a udev rule instead; thanks to Manty for
    the suggestion.
