  * libudev uses $SYSFS_PATH, not $SYSFS. Fix test suite accordingly.
  * debian/tests/system: Raise a more specific exception if headers for
    the running kernel are not installed. Thanks to Jean-Baptiste Lallement
    for the intial patch! (LP: #1021386)

  * debian/tests/control: Drop undefined "no-build-needed" feature.
  * debian/tests/system: NVidia and FGLRX drivers produce some stderr output
    when installing the packages. Don't fail on them, but do show the output
    in the test suite.

  * UbuntuDrivers/detect.py: Add nvidia-* for automatic installation after
    discussion with Chris. The proprietary driver is still the better choice
    (if you click "proprietary 3rd party drivers" in Ubiquity) until Nouveau
    enables power management.
  * tests/ubuntu_drivers.py: Update test_auto_install_chroot() for above
    change, as nvidia now does get installed automatically.
  * Quirks/quirkapplier.py: Update to current xkit API: Call write(), not
    writeFile(). (LP: #1014728)
  * UbuntuDrivers/detect.py: Change system_modaliases() to return an alias →
    sysfs_path map, instead of just a list of aliases.
  * UbuntuDrivers/detect.py: Change system_driver_packages() to return a
    package → info map, instead of just a list of packages. UI can use the
    info to show which device requested a driver, whether it is free or
    proprietary, and whether it is a distro or third-party package.
    (LP: #1013665)
  * Fix fd leaks from subprocess in the test suite.
  * Add debian/tests/system and debian/tests/control: Add autopkg test to
    check that we can detect, install, and remove the nvidia, fglrx, and bcmwl
    drivers. Due to their nature of being compiled on the client side and
    depend on matching kernel headers/API, they are inherently a bit brittle
    and thus we should spot regressions immediately.

  [ Martin Pitt ]
  * UbuntuDrivers/detect.py: Auto-install virtualbox-guest-dkms.
  * UbuntuDrivers/PackageKit.py: If packagekit.enums is not available, fall
    back to aptdaemon.pkenums. This will allow us to move to Python3 without
    waiting for PackageKit.
  * Revert Dmitrijs' relative imports and move back to Python3 compatible
    absolute imports.
  * quirks-handler, setup.py: Move to Python 3 as well.

  [ Dmitrijs Ledkovs ]
  * NvidiaDetector/nvidiadetector.py: Use python3 compatible syntax.
  * Convert package to python3 only.

  * debian/control: Drop hard packagekit/aptdeamon dependencies, and move them
    to Suggests/Enhances. We do not need them for the core code, just for the
    PackageKit plugin.
  * UbuntuDrivers/PackageKit.py: Drop system_driver_packages(), as it is
    really not that useful: For UIs using the PackageKit API you cannot call
    it, and for Ubuntu specific UIs you can use the faster
    UbuntuDrivers.detect API. Instead, provide the functionality through the
    WhatProvides(HARDWARE_DRIVER, "drivers_for_attached_hardware") call, which
    is defined in PackageKit. Adjust tests accordingly.
  * debian/control: Update description.
  * debian/control: Drop obsolete XB-Python-Version.
  * debian/control: Move packagekit-backend-aptcc from Breaks to Conflicts, as
    it is unversioned.
  * UbuntuDrivers/PackageKit.py: Add pkcon example for HARDWARE_DRIVERS to
    header comment.
  * UbuntuDrivers/detect.py, packages_for_modalias(): Avoid returning the same
    package multiple times.
  * Add README: Document purpose, interfaces, and detection logic.
  * Add debian/ubuntu-drivers-common.apport: Apport hook to include the output
    of "ubutu-drivers debug". Add dh-apport build dependency and enable in
    debian/rules.
  * Add dh-modaliases, moved from the obsolete Jockey package:
    - Add debhelper/dh_modaliases: Debhelper program to produce a
      ${modaliases} substvar from scanning .ko files or
      debian/packagename.modaliases.
    - Add debhelper/modaliases.pm: dh_auto sequencer for dh_modaliases.
    - Add debian/dh-modaliases.install: Install above files.
    - debian/control: Add dh-modaliases package.
    - debian/rules: Create manpage from dh_modaliases POD.
  * Add debhelper/test_dh_modaliases: Old test script for dh_modaliases from
    Jockey. This is not integrated into "make check" and uses the
    snd_hda_intel kernel module from the system; this needs to be run manually
    for now.
  * debian/rules: Respect "nocheck" in $DEB_BUILD_OPTIONS.

  * ubuntu-drivers: Add --package-list option to create a file with the list
    of installed packages in "autoinstall" mode.
  * Add ubiquity/target-config/31ubuntu_driver_packages: Ubiquity plugin to
    install all packages that "ubuntu-drivers autoinstall" installed into the
    live system. Install it in setup.py.
  * ubuntu-drivers: Stop meddling with the debconf environment variables. It
    is wrong (and too late anyway for Ubiquity) to do it here. The complete
    environment setting is now done in Ubiquity's simple-plugins.

  * detect-plugins/sl-modem.py: Do not log an exception when
    /proc/asound/cards does not exist (such as in the buildds), as it causes
    the test_plugin_errors test to fail.

  * Fix exception, print, and assert syntax to be Python 3 compatible.
  * Fix octal number and iteration syntax to be Python 3 compatible.
  * Add .gitignore to ignore built stuff.
  * tests/run: Clean up generated settings.py file on exit.
  * Add detect-plugins/sl-modem.py: Custom detect plugin for the
    sl-modem-daemon special case (formerly handled by Jockey's sl_modem.py
    handler).
  * debian/rules: Simplify running the tests.
  * tests/ubuntu_drivers.py: Fix temporary log level changing.

  * ubuntu-drivers: Fix duplicate system modalias debug messages.
  * UbuntuDrivers/detect.py: Disable two debug messages which cause excessive
    debug log spew and are not very interesting.
  * ubuntu-drivers autoinstall: Do not reinstall already installed drivers.
  * Add detect-plugins/open-vm-dkms.py: Custom detect plugin for the
    open-vm-dkms special case (formerly handled by Jockeys' vmware-client.py
    handler).
  * setup.py: Install detect-plugins/*.
  * tests/ubuntu_drivers.py: Add PluginsTest to check that shipped plugins
    work without errors or crashes.
  * UbuntuDrivers/detect.py, _check_video_abi_compat(): Disable NVidia driver
    if X.org's log shows that the Intel driver is loaded. This prevents
    breaking hybrid systems as long as the NVidia driver and X.org do not work
    on those.
  * debian/ubuntu-drivers-common.templates: Drop trailing whitespace, to stop
    lintian from complaining.
  * debian/control: Add missing ${misc:Depends} to transitional package.
  * debian/control: Add missing ${shlibs:Depends} for hybrid-detect.
  * debian/control: Set priority of the nividia-common transitional package to
    "extra" to quiesce lintian.

  * UbuntuDrivers/detect.py, system_modaliases(): Catch/log IOErrors when
    trying to open "modalias" files in /sys. On powerpc we get a "No such
    device" error on some files, causing test failures.
  * tests/ubuntu_drivers.py, ToolTest: Explicitly set --log in the chroot's
    DPKG::options::. The buildds seem to have a dpkg configuration which needs
    that, otherwise it's trying to write into the system log file.

  * Rename to ubuntu-drivers-common, as this package is already necessary for
    fglrx as well, and will soon get support for more drivers (replacing
    Jockey). Update file references and names everywhere, and drop the
    obsolete debian/README.Debian and debian/nvidia-common.preinst.
  * debian/control: Fix for current python packaging policy (XS- → X-), and
    drop obsolete debian/pycompat.
  * debian/control: Add Vcs-* tags.
  * setup.py: Move from distutils to setuptools, to get an egg info (needed to
    provide PackageKit plugins). Add python-setuptools build dependency.
  * Add tests/fakesysfs.py: Provide a fake sysfs directory for testing.
    Adapted from upower's integration test suite.
  * Add tests/testarchive.py: Class for building an apt archive with test
    packages.
  * Add UbuntuDrivers/detect.py, tests/ubuntu_drivers.py: Hardware/driver
    detection functionality.  These are borrowed and streamlined from Jockey.
  * Add aptdaemon/PackageKit (apt backend) plugin for what-provides MODALIAS:
    - Add UbuntuDrivers/PackageKit.py: The actual plugin, which checks the
      query against the patterns packages specify in their "Modaliases:"
      header. Also provides a system_driver_packages() function to get all
      driver packages applicable for the system.
    - setup.py: Install the new UbuntuDrivers Python package and register the
      plugin entry point.
    - tests/ubuntu_drivers.py: Add tests cases for UbuntuDrivers.PackageKit,
      using a test aptdaemon instance on a local session bus.
    - debian/control: Add python-aptdaemon.pkcompat dependency. Also specify
      packagekit as an alternative, but conflict to packagekit-backend-aptcc
      for now, as this does not support the MODALIAS what-provides query, nor
      plugins. This means that you cannot currently install this package
      together with packagekit as long as the latter hard-depends on the aptcc
      backend. Also add aptdaemon/dbus build dependencies to be able to run
      the tests during build time.
  * tests/run: Exit with a nonzero code if there are failures or errors.
  * debian/rules: Ensure that our egg-info is built before running the tests,
    and removed again on clean.
  * debian/copyright: Rewrite using copyright 1.0 format.
  * Add ubuntu-drivers: Command line tool to list available driver packages
    for this system and auto-install them. This replaces the functionality of
    "jockey-text --auto-install". This does not use any D-BUS communication,
    so is safe to run in chroots.
  * debian/control: Switch to Architecture: any, we are already building this
    package anywhere but powerpc.
  * setup.py: Remove commented code for updating .mo files. This package is
    not supposed to show user-visible strings, and if we ever get them it
    should rather use python-distutils-extra.
  * setup.py: Only build hybrid-detect on x86 machines.
  * debian/control: Bump Standards-Version to 3.9.3.
