Change logs for debian-cd source package in Karmic

  • debian-cd (3.1.2) unstable; urgency=low
    
      [ Frans Pop ]
      * Add support for squeeze.
    
      [ Colin Watson ]
      * Luk Claes has taken over alpha, amd64, mips, and mipsel daily d-i
        builds.
    
      [ Steve McIntyre ]
      * Don't call images beta if they're using OFFICIAL_VAL == 2.
        Closes: #516353
      * Add wpasupplicant to tasks/*/forcd1 . Closes: #517298. It's a small
        package that should fit easily.
      * tools/sort_deps: Sort dependencies better: if A dep B then we should
        NOT list A before B. Closes: #518145.
    
      [ Joey Hess ]
      * Add firmware-linux to firmware task.
      * Re-add zd1211-firmware to firmware task.
    
      [ Steve McIntyre ]
      * tools/imagesums: Add support for more checksum types. genisoimage
        will shortly start generating sha256 and sha512 sums too.
      * Recognise and ignore Breaks: lines. Closes: #523444
      * Re-add code to generate install.bat on x86 machines. Thanks to Samuel
        Thibault for the patch. Closes: #518807
      * Modify README.html: only attempt to link to the release notes and
        installation manual on release-ready builds, otherwise suggest the
        alioth version of the installation manual. Closes: #330398

  • debian-cd (3.1.1) unstable; urgency=high
    
      [ Frans Pop ]
      * sparc: remove bogus default "append=cdrom" line from silo.conf template.
      * sparc: ensure the default 'install' option also gets KERNEL_PARAMS set.
      * start_new_disc: fix a typo so that DISC_PKG_HOOK might work. Thanks to
        Jonathan Hall for the patch. Closes: #513421
      * boot-x86: drop support for no longer really useful ISOLINUX_DEFAULT
        environment variable (see #512303 for discussion).
      * x86: clean up compatibility code that was needed for D-I Lenny RC1
        isolinux configuration files.
    
      [ Otavio Salvador ]
      * do not exclude libaio1-udeb from CDs.
    
      [ Steve McIntyre ]
      * Merge patches from Jonathan Hall:
        + Add better support for extra components, improve non-i386 mirror
          support (Closes: 514237)
        + tools/update_tasks no longer assumes i386 for all builds (Closes: #513497)
        + tools/which_deb no longer assumes i386 for all builds (Closes: #513498)
      * For source-only builds, don't do any task updates as they're not
        useful anyway.
      * Last high-urgency upload, ready for Lenny!

  • debian-cd (3.1.0) unstable; urgency=low
    
      [ Frans Pop ]
      * Don't include brltty on netinst images as it pulls in libicu which causes
        a 5MB size increase of the image, which is out of proportion given its use.
        This should not affect users as netinst installs should normally use a
        mirror and thus the package will be installed from there if needed.
        brltty will still get included on full CDs and DVDs through forcd1.
      * Remove references to no longer used files rawlist.exclude and list.exclude.
      * Clean up no longer needed compatibility code in lenny x86 boot script.
    
      [ Steve McIntyre ]
      * Rename list2cds to sort_deps.
      * Fix how directory trees are created in update-cd. Closes: #503911.
      * Update update_popcon to cope better with errors; now uses curl instead
        of wget.
    
      [ Raphael Hertzog ]
      * Don't try to copy sbm on etch CD images as it got removed.
      * Also extract isolinux.bin from the syslinux package in the case of etch
        CD images (since it's no more provided by debian-cd itself). 
    
      [ Frans Pop ]
      * Rework the way tasks are handled:
        - all tasks files are moved to ./tasks/<codename> subdirectories so they
          can be more easily kept up-to-date with specific distro releases
        - always generate the debian-installer and tasksel tasks dynamically:
          . all task files for the desired suite are copied to the working
            directory at the beginning of each build, and are used from there
          . the debian-installer and tasksel tasks are no longer included in
            releases but are always created automatically at build time; this
            means users no longer need to run the generate_di_* scripts or the
            update_tasksel script
          . the popcon task file will remain included as a static file, but plan
            is to add an option to update it automatically for each build; reason
            is that updating it requires network access
        - bump version to 3.1
      * Update the contrib/testingcds script based on its current version on
        farbror.
      * Clean up and update interesting-fromcd23 and exclude task files for lenny.
      * Fix error in expansion of %ARCH% variables in D-I image location envvars.
      * Fix i386/amd64 multi-arch support in the lenny x86 boot script so that the
        isolinux config gets modified correctly independent of the order in which
        the arches are specified.
      * Workaround #505243 by modifying the syslinux configuration for amd64/i386
        multi-arch images and using ifcpu64.c32 to autodetect 32/64-bit systems
        when a user hits enter from the isolinux help screens. Based on research
        done by Franklin Piat.
    
      [ Steve McIntyre ]
      * Stop copying the /tools/ directory on from the mirror; it's going away.
      * Add support for multiple desktop tasks on a single disk
      * Add support for tracking which packages we've extracted binaries from,
        so that we can archive them (both binaries and sources). If we need
        anything, we will list it in CD$N.pkgs_extracted so that external
        scripts can pick it up and do whatever's needed.
      * Minor changes to the interface of tools/which_deb to accommodate that:
        now just lists the files *within* the mirror; it's up to callers to
        prepend ${MIRROR} as needed.
    
      [ Frans Pop ]
      * make_image: ensure correct quoting of variables when calling genisoimage.
        Closes: #507300.
      * boot-hppa: support KERNEL_PARAMS (so desktop= can be passed).
      * boot-hppa: stop passing redundant boot parameters root and ramdisk_size.
      * Split out languages supported by D-I and tasksel from task.list files.
        Instead of duplicating what language tasks should be included in each
        task.list.* file, let update_tasks add them dynamically at runtime from a
        single list of languages supported by tasksel and D-I. This also makes
        maintaining the lists a lot less painful. Closes: #506616.
      * Indicate which tasks are "secondary" by adding a "-" suffix in task.list.*
        files instead of hardcoding it in update_tasks. Closes: #506668.
      * Add new file tasks/README.tasksel to document the way tasksel tasks are
        used when determining the order in which packages are added to images.
      * Update list of languages supported by tasksel and D-I for Lenny.
      * Add support for a separate 'LXDE desktop environment' CD.
      * Add support for a 'light desktop environment' CD (LXDE + Xfce).
        Includes a framework to manipulate the isolinux configuration for x86 so
        that a user can select which desktop he wishes to install.
      * Add support to create an 'all desktops' DVD.
        This new task will include all four desktop environments supported by
        tasksel (GNOME, KDE, LXDE and Xfce). On x86 it will also add an option in
        the isolinux menu (under Advanced options) to select which DE to install,
        but GNOME will remain default.
      * Add support for a separate 'GNOME desktop environment' CD.
        This new task is mostly added for completeness. Main difference with the
        default task file is that no server tasks are included.
      * Add a suffix "generic" to the default task files to make the overall naming
        scheme more consistent. It also allows to make update_tasks more generic.
      * Update exclude list for Lenny:
        - remove aspell* packages as they do not included on CD1 anyway and
          excluding them also means they get excluded from DVD1;
        - remove xen/vserver linux-image packages as they do not get included on
          CD1 anyway;
        - xmail and cdebconf were added as they got pulled in through alternative
          dependencies, which is no longer an issue.
      * Give priority to Key packages over regular packages for secondary tasks
        (similar to what we already did for primary tasks).
      * README.easy-build: document how to use custom packages and D-I images.
      * Add myself as uploader.
