1104 - Avoid installing to sectors matching the signature of an Acer
1105 registration utility with several sightings in the wild (LP: #987022).
1106 - Document the need for GRUB_DEFAULT=saved in grub-set-default(8)
1108 - Fix missing PVs if they don't contain an "interesting" LV (probably
1109 closes: #650724, #707613).

1113 as UCS4 stored as grub_uint32_t rather than as 8-bit characters stored
1114 as char (closes: #710076).
1115 - Fix inconsistent use of GRUB_CRYPTODISK_ENABLE and

1119 - Don't decompress initrd when booting with Xen (closes: #700197).
1120 - Document how to delete the whole environment block (closes: #726265).
1121 - Revamp hidden timeout handling by adding a new timeout_style
1122 environment variable and a corresponding GRUB_TIMEOUT_STYLE
1123 configuration key for grub-mkconfig. This controls hidden-timeout
1124 handling more simply than the previous arrangements, and pressing any
1125 hotkeys associated with menu entries during the hidden timeout will
1126 now boot the corresponding menu entry immediately (LP: #1178618). As
1127 part of merging this, radically simplify the mess that
1128 quick_boot.patch had made of /etc/grub.d/30_os-prober; if it finds
1129 other OSes it can now just set timeout_style=menu and make sure the
1130 timeout is non-zero.

1135 * Ignore functional test failures for now as they are broken.
1136 * Move working directories around (build/<package> -> obj/<package>,
1137 build/stamps -> debian/stamps) so that "debian/rules build" still works
1138 after working directories have been created.
1139 * Drop "grub-mkrescue --diet" option; never merged upstream and only
1140 matters for floppies. Please let me know if you were using this.
1141 Explicitly use -no-pad to build grub-rescue-floppy.img, which has an
1142 equivalent effect on size.

1981 * Update Lintian overrides for changes in Lintian 2.5.0~rc1.
1982 * Invert how files are split among binary packages: rather than code in
1983 debian/rules to remove files we don't want, add dh_install configuration
1984 to declare the files we do want. This means a little more repetition
1985 for platform-specific programs, but it seems less confusing and easier
1987 * Drop versioned dependencies on base-files. GPL-3 has been there for two
1988 Debian releases now, and the dependency was never upgrade-critical
1990 * Create grub2-common package containing files that are common among GRUB
1991 platform packages but that would break GRUB Legacy, or that are too
1992 confusing when coinstalled with GRUB Legacy (closes: #564167).
1993 * Drop conflict on an ancient (pre-lenny/hardy) version of desktop-base.
1994 * Move /etc/grub.d/05_debian_theme to grub-common, to go with the other
1995 /etc/grub.d/* files.
1996 * Drop redundant Suggests: os-prober from several platform packages, as
1997 grub-common already Recommends: os-prober.
1998 * Create grub-<platform>-bin packages corresponding to all grub-<platform>
1999 packages (except for grub-emu). These do not automatically install the
2000 boot loader or update grub.cfg, and they install their binaries to
2001 /usr/lib/grub/<cpu>-<platform>/; this means that they can be installed
2002 in parallel, making it easier to use them to build GRUB-based disk
2003 images (e.g. d-i). The grub-<platform> packages now depend on these and
2004 include symlinks, so their behaviour will remain as before.
2005 * Make grub-emu depend on grub-common.
2006 * Make the documentation directory in most binary packages be a symlink to
2007 that in grub-common.
2008 * Drop lenny compatibility from grub2-common's dpkg/install-info
2009 dependency, since it produces a Lintian warning and using the current
2010 packaging on lenny is probably rather a stretch anyway.

2913 grub2 (1.98+20100602-1) unstable; urgency=low
2915 * New Bazaar snapshot.
2916 - Add btrfs probing support, currently only in the single-device case
2918 - Fix grub-emu build on mips/powerpc/sparc.
2919 - Add safety check to make sure that /boot/grub/locale exists before
2920 trying to probe it (closes: #567211).
2921 - Several 'info grub' improvements, including a new section on
2922 configuration file generation using grub-mkconfig which documents the
2923 available keys in /etc/default/grub (closes: #497085).
2927 * Reorganise configure and build targets in debian/rules to use stamp
2928 files. configure/* never existed and build/* was always a directory, so
2929 make never considered either of them up to date (closes: #450505).
2930 * Remove config.h.in from AUTOGEN_FILES, since autoheader doesn't
2931 necessarily update it.
2932 * Remove conf/gcry.mk from AUTOGEN_FILES, and conf/gcry.rmk from their
2933 dependencies. autogen.sh runs util/import_gcry.py after autoconf et al,
2934 so conf/gcry.rmk's timestamp will be later than some of the
2935 autogenerated outputs.
2936 * Go back to shipping rescue images in the grub-rescue-pc .deb itself
2937 rather than generating them in the postinst. This means that (a) they
2938 get removed when the package is removed (closes: #584176); (b) they are
2939 listed in package metadata, as is proper for files in /usr (closes:
2940 #584218); (c) grub-rescue-pc can potentially be used as a
2941 build-dependency for other packages that need to build GRUB images into
2942 installation media etc., without having to build-depend on grub-pc which
2943 isn't coinstallable with other platform variants and does invasive
2944 things in its postinst.
2945 * Add grub-mkrescue patch from Thomas Schmitt to allow reducing the size
2946 of xorriso-created images. Use this to ensure that
2947 grub-rescue-floppy.img fits well within size limits (closes: #548320).

2971 of mkisofs (closes: #570156).
2972 - Issue an error rather than segfaulting if only some LVM component
2973 devices are in device.map (closes: #577808).
2974 - Fix typo in make_device_name which caused grub-probe problems on
2975 systems with BSD disk labels (closes: #578201).
2976 - Add DM-RAID probe support (closes: #579919).
2977 - Include all gnumach kernels on Hurd, not just gnumach and gnumach.gz
2981 * Restore TEXTDOMAINDIR correction in grub.d files, lost by mistake in a
2982 merge. Noticed by Anthony Fok.
2983 * Don't fail on purge if the ucf association has already been taken over
2984 by a different grub package (closes: #574176).

2997 upgrade-from-grub-legacy has not been run, upgrade the chainloaded image
2998 rather than confusing the user by prompting them where they want to
2999 install GRUB (closes: #546822).
3000 * Build-depend on libsdl1.2-dev for SDL support in grub-emu.
3001 * Don't leak debconf's file descriptor to update-grub, so that the LVM
3002 tools called from os-prober don't complain about it (closes: #549976).
3003 Other leaks are not this package's fault, may not be bugs at all, and in
3004 any case os-prober 1.36 suppresses the warnings.

4847 * 01_fix_amd64_building.patch: dropped since it now supports amd64
4849 * Remove convert_kernel26 usage since it's not necessary anymore and due
4850 initramfs-tools changes it's bug too.

4854 make it work for grub2.
4855 * Update README.Debian.in with more recent (and easier) install instructions.
4856 * Add grub to Conflicts/Replaces. Too many commands with the same name,
4857 even if they don't use the same path yet (but will likely do in the
4858 future, see #361929).
4859 * Get rid of control.in, which I introduced in 0.6+20040805-1 and turned out
4860 to be an endless source of problems (and forbidden by policy as well).
4861 * Fix FTBFS on amd64. Really closes: #372548.
