      * Fix double-quote handling in /proc/cmdline
        Parsing of the cmdline would fail if double-quotes are encountered
        in /proc/cmdine (i.e. like when things like "acpi_osi=!Windows 2012"
        are found in the cmdline). (LP: #1644771)
    
      * Fix spelling error in debian/control

      * define_stampdir() : Loop on hostname -I for 5 sec to get IP address
        if HOSTTAG=ip. The network stack may not be ready when kdump-config runs.
        Give it some time before reverting HOSTTAG to hostname if an IP address
        cannot be found. (LP: #1599561)
    
      * debian/rules : drop the dh_installinit override
        Uses a syntax which is no longer supported and generate an error on
        install. (LP: #1599491)

      * New upstream version includes :
        o Exclude page structures of non-dumped pages
         - Add the new option "-e" to exclude the page structures which correspond
           to excluded pages. This option will bring a great performance, but it 
           will harm analyticity a little bit. Please see the note below:
        
           NOTE: If you specify this option, crash will show the message below
                 and the 'kmem' command will not work.
        
               This dumpfile is incomplete because the page structures associated
               with excluded pages may also be excluded.  This may cause the crash
               session to fail entirely, may cause commands to fail (most notably
               the "kmem" command), or may result in unpredictable runtime behavior.
        
           Now this option supports only x86_64.
        
        o Support new kernels
         - The supported kernel is updated to 4.5 in this version.
