doc-debian (6.5) unstable; urgency=medium

  [ Changes by Joost van Baal-Ilić ]
  - doc/Makefile: apply patch contributed by intrigeri in
    <email address hidden>: "Once applied, doc-debian can be built
    reproducibly in our current experimental framework."  This fixes an
    issue reported earlier by Daniel Kahn Gillmor: "currently, lynx
    produces text output on the basis of the locale.  this means that as
    the locale differs, the generated .txt files change." (Closes: #791673,
    #826544)
  - debian/control: move from Vcs-Svn on anonscm.debian.org aka Alioth
    (which was long gone) to Vcs-Git at
    https://salsa.debian.org/ddp-team/doc-debian.git. (Closes: #922929)
  - doc/constitution.wml, doc/constitution.1.6.wml: add missing end of
    sentence "er than V(D,A)." in Item A.6.3.2, cf
    https://www.debian.org/vote/2015/vote_003. Thanks Kurt Roeckx and Paul
    Gevers. See also www.debian.org Bug #896067.
  - debian/control: add myself to uploaders after OK from Javier
    Fernández-Sanguino Peña in private communication (Message-ID:
    <email address hidden>).

          from that document.  (Closes: #342871)
        * compat.sgml: Add note on LSB to answer "How compatible is
          Debian".  (Closes: #342823)

          needed dependency packages, mention libraries too.  See Bug
          #315861

          better mention Progeny Debian, Linspire, Knoppix and Ubuntu.
          Mention CDD when talking about Debian-derived distributions.  (I
          guess the note on "Linux for Hams" should probably either get

        * support.sgml: refer to relevant social contract clause when

          transition

          use faqstatic.ent.
        * basic_defs.sgml: More reasons to choose Debian: DFSG, Social
          Contract, # packages, # architectures. Gentoo exists, Debian is
          no longer "the only Linux distribution that is being developed
          cooperatively by many individuals through the Internet".
          (Closes: #340655)

          of FAQ, intended audience, assumed knowledge (Closes: #333504)
