49 * New upstream release.
50 - Add LUKS and GELI encrypted disk support (closes: #463107).
51 - Lazy scanning to avoid accessing devices which aren't really used.
52 This avoids boot delay due to slow device scanning (closes: #549905,
53 #550015, #550083, #564252, #595059, #632408).
54 - Don't override more informative errors when loading kernel/initrd
56 - Support 4K-sector NTFS (closes: #567728).
57 - Unify grub-mkrescue interface on powerpc with that on other
58 architectures (closes: #570119).
59 - Fix infinite recursion in gettext when translation fails (closes:
60 #611537, #612454, #616487, #619618, #626853, #643608).
61 - Add more missing quotes to grub-mkconfig (closes: #612417).
62 - Import gnulib change to fix argp_help segfault with help filter
64 - Support %1$d syntax in grub_printf (closes: #630647).
65 - Use write-combining MTRR to speed up video with buggy BIOSes (closes:

69 - Fix crash when attempting to install to a non-BIOS disk (closes:

80 * Adjust debian/watch to point to xz-compressed tarballs.
81 * debian/grub.d/05_debian_theme: Source grub-mkconfig_lib from
82 /usr/share/grub, not the /usr/lib/grub compatibility link.
83 * Convert to source format 3.0 (quilt). Developers, note that patches are
84 stored applied in bzr; you may want to 'quilt pop -a' / 'quilt push -a'
86 * Remove pointless debian/grub-mount-udeb.install.hurd-i386;
87 grub-mount-udeb is not built on the Hurd.
88 * Refactor debian/grub-common.install.hurd-i386 into .in files so that it
89 imposes less of a maintenance burden.
90 * Restore grub-mkdevicemap for now. While it's kind of a mess, requiring
91 lots of OS-specific code to iterate over all possible devices, we use it
92 in a number of scripts to discover devices and reimplementing those in
93 terms of something else would be very complicated.
94 * Add grub-efi-ia64-bin and grub-efi-ia64 packages. These are currently
95 experimental, and grub-efi-ia64 does not automatically run grub-install.
96 * Build-depend on gcc-4.6-multilib on kfreebsd-i386 and hurd-i386 as well
97 as the other i386 architectures, since we need it to build efiemu32.o
99 * Add per-platform *-dbg packages containing files needed to use GRUB's
100 GDB stub. These are relatively large and thus worth splitting out.

495 * Create grub-<platform>-bin packages corresponding to all grub-<platform>
496 packages (except for grub-emu). These do not automatically install the
497 boot loader or update grub.cfg, and they install their binaries to
498 /usr/lib/grub/<cpu>-<platform>/; this means that they can be installed
499 in parallel, making it easier to use them to build GRUB-based disk
500 images (e.g. d-i). The grub-<platform> packages now depend on these and

1467 - Use xorriso for image creation rather than embedding a modified copy
1468 of mkisofs (closes: #570156).
1469 - Issue an error rather than segfaulting if only some LVM component
1470 devices are in device.map (closes: #577808).
1471 - Fix typo in make_device_name which caused grub-probe problems on
1472 systems with BSD disk labels (closes: #578201).
1473 - Add DM-RAID probe support (closes: #579919).
1474 - Include all gnumach kernels on Hurd, not just gnumach and gnumach.gz
1478 * Restore TEXTDOMAINDIR correction in grub.d files, lost by mistake in a

1480 * Don't fail on purge if the ucf association has already been taken over
1481 by a different grub package (closes: #574176).

1496 install GRUB (closes: #546822).

1498 * Don't leak debconf's file descriptor to update-grub, so that the LVM
1499 tools called from os-prober don't complain about it (closes: #549976).
1500 Other leaks are not this package's fault, may not be bugs at all, and in
1501 any case os-prober 1.36 suppresses the warnings.
