  • kexec-tools (1:2.0.14-1ubuntu1) zesty; urgency=medium
    
      * Merge from Debian unstable.  Remaining changes:
        - Default to not kexecing a kernel on boot in the automatically
          generated conffile
        - Don't call db_stop from the postinst.
        - Adjust INITCONFFILE to vmlinux if used
        - Use format-security.patch instead of const_string_warning.patch
        - Add maintainer script helper to handle removal of conffile
          /etc/default/grub.d/kexec-tools.cfg has been removed.
          Handle it properly
        - Add Breaks: statement toward kdump-tools
           Starting with kdump-tools 1:1.5.9-6, this package takes
           over the addition of crashkernel= parameter which has
           been removed from kexec-tools.
           Make sure that it is upgraded accordingly.
