doc-linux 2005.12-1 source package in Ubuntu

Changelog

doc-linux (2005.12-1) unstable; urgency=low

  
  * new upstream release (20051211)
  * Updated HOWTOs:
    DB2-HOWTO FBB Font-HOWTO Howtos-with-LinuxDoc
    IP-Masquerade-HOWTO LILO Leased-Line
    Linksys-Blue-Box-Router-HOWTO Linux+WinNT
    Linux-Complete-Backup-and-Recovery-HOWTO
    Quake-HOWTO TimePrecision-HOWTO
  * All above mentioned HOWTOs are free, except for the DB2-HOWTO
  * Francesco Poli did a license audit for the free
    HOWTOs and pointed out some ambigous stuff which
    needs to be sorted out with the respective authors:
    + Moved Boot+Root+Raid+LILO and Root-RAID to
      non-free until their license contains explicit
      permission to modify
    + Moved the HOWTOs under the old-style ESR license
      (Installation-HOWTO, Oracle-8-HOWTO, Reading-List-HOWTO,
      Wacom-USB-mini-HOWTO) to non-free for similar reasons
    + Same for Oracle-7-HOWTO, NCD-X-Terminal and TT-XFree86
      which probably derived their license come from an old,
      misleading LDP template
    + Some of the arguments against the CC Attribution
      licenses also apply to CC-SA 1.0. Move K7s5a-HOWTO
      to non-free
    + The TeTeX-HOWTO tries to introduce invariant sections
      and includes the GPL for other purposes than its own
      license text. Seems to be clearly non-free. Moved.      
    + All other HOWTOs mentioned in the bug report will remain
      in main even though they still might need some clarification
      of their licenses. I will also not move any of the GFDL
      (no invariants) stuff to non-free yet. Just too much of it.
    (Closes: #335220) All parts of the bug not solved yet are now
    covered in separate bug reports.
  * Updated Replaces in control file accordingly
  * Use debhelper compat level 5
