1200 stored applied in bzr; you may want to 'quilt pop -a' / 'quilt push -a'

1207 lots of OS-specific code to iterate over all possible devices, we use it
1208 in a number of scripts to discover devices and reimplementing those in

1212 * Build-depend on gcc-4.6-multilib on kfreebsd-i386 and hurd-i386 as well

1646 * Set PACKAGE_VERSION and PACKAGE_STRING using configure arguments rather
1647 than sedding configure.ac in debian/rules (which sometimes has annoying
1648 interactions with quilt, etc.).
1649 * Update branch_embed-sectors.patch:
1650 - Detect sector used by HighPoint RAID controller (closes: #394868).
1651 * Add debian/README.source (from quilt).
1652 * Make debian/rules more explicit about when autogen.sh is run. We need
1653 to be careful that all full builds run it, since we use GRUB extras.
1654 * Merge from Ubuntu:
1655 - Handle filesystems loop-mounted on file images.
1656 - On Wubi, don't ask for an install device, but just update wubildr
1657 using the diverted grub-install.
1658 - Add grub-mount-udeb, containing just grub-mount. This can be used by
1659 os-prober and other parts of d-i.
1660 - Artificially bump Replaces: grub-common versioning to account for
1661 grub-reboot/grub-set-default movement in Ubuntu.
1662 * Don't do a separate build pass for grub-common. It will be identical to
1663 the build for the default platform for the CPU architecture anyway, so
1665 * Build with GCC 4.5 on all architectures.
1666 * Update Lintian overrides for changes in Lintian 2.5.0~rc1.
1667 * Invert how files are split among binary packages: rather than code in
1668 debian/rules to remove files we don't want, add dh_install configuration
1669 to declare the files we do want. This means a little more repetition
1670 for platform-specific programs, but it seems less confusing and easier
1672 * Drop versioned dependencies on base-files. GPL-3 has been there for two
1673 Debian releases now, and the dependency was never upgrade-critical
1675 * Create grub2-common package containing files that are common among GRUB
1676 platform packages but that would break GRUB Legacy, or that are too
1677 confusing when coinstalled with GRUB Legacy (closes: #564167).
1678 * Drop conflict on an ancient (pre-lenny/hardy) version of desktop-base.
1679 * Move /etc/grub.d/05_debian_theme to grub-common, to go with the other
1680 /etc/grub.d/* files.
1681 * Drop redundant Suggests: os-prober from several platform packages, as
1682 grub-common already Recommends: os-prober.
1683 * Create grub-<platform>-bin packages corresponding to all grub-<platform>
1684 packages (except for grub-emu). These do not automatically install the
1685 boot loader or update grub.cfg, and they install their binaries to
1686 /usr/lib/grub/<cpu>-<platform>/; this means that they can be installed
1687 in parallel, making it easier to use them to build GRUB-based disk
1688 images (e.g. d-i). The grub-<platform> packages now depend on these and
1689 include symlinks, so their behaviour will remain as before.
1690 * Make grub-emu depend on grub-common.
1691 * Make the documentation directory in most binary packages be a symlink to
1692 that in grub-common.
1693 * Drop lenny compatibility from grub2-common's dpkg/install-info
1694 dependency, since it produces a Lintian warning and using the current
1695 packaging on lenny is probably rather a stretch anyway.

2485 grub-pc/chainload_from_menu.lst as untranslatable.
2486 * Update Homepage field (thanks, Sedat Dilek).
2487 * On Linux, if /boot/grub/device.map exists on upgrade to this version,
2488 regenerate it to use stable device names in /dev/disk/by-id/. If it had
2489 more than one entry, then display a critical-priority debconf note
2490 (sorry, but it's better than silently breaking boot menu entries)
2491 advising people to check custom boot menu entries and update them if
2492 necessary (closes: #583271).
2493 * Use 'set -e' rather than '#! /bin/sh -e' or '#! /bin/bash -e', to avoid
2494 accidents when debugging with 'sh -x'.
2495 * Store grub-pc/install_devices as persistent device names under
2496 /dev/disk/by-id/ (closes: #554790). Migrate previous device names to
2497 that, with explicit confirmation in non-trivial cases to make sure we
2498 got the right ones. If the devices we were told to install to ever go
2499 away, ask again. (This is based on the implementation in Ubuntu.)
2500 * If grub-install fails during upgrade-from-grub-legacy, allow the user to
2501 try again with a different device, but failing that cancel the upgrade
2503 * Remove numbering from patch files. The order is now explicit in a quilt
2504 series file, and renumbering from time to time is tedious.

2526 disregard the fact that /boot/grub/stage2 and /boot/grub/menu.lst still
2527 exist (closes: #550477).
2528 * Touch a marker file when grub-install is run but GRUB Legacy files are
2529 still around. If that marker file is present, pretend that GRUB Legacy
2530 files are missing when upgrading.
2531 * If GRUB Legacy files are present when upgrading, scan boot sectors of
2532 all disks for GRUB 2. If we find GRUB 2 installed anywhere, then ask
2533 the user if they want to finish conversion to GRUB 2, and warn them that
2534 not doing so may render the system unbootable (closes: #586143). Thanks
2535 to Sedat Dilek for helping to narrow down this bug.
2536 * Leaving grub-pc/install_devices empty makes sense in some situations,
2537 but more often than not is a mistake. On the other hand, automatically
2538 selecting all disk devices would upset some people too. Compromise by
2539 simply asking for explicit confirmation if grub-pc/install_devices is

2605 trying to probe it (closes: #567211).
2606 - Several 'info grub' improvements, including a new section on
2607 configuration file generation using grub-mkconfig which documents the
2608 available keys in /etc/default/grub (closes: #497085).
2612 * Reorganise configure and build targets in debian/rules to use stamp
2613 files. configure/* never existed and build/* was always a directory, so
2614 make never considered either of them up to date (closes: #450505).
2615 * Remove config.h.in from AUTOGEN_FILES, since autoheader doesn't
2616 necessarily update it.
2617 * Remove conf/gcry.mk from AUTOGEN_FILES, and conf/gcry.rmk from their
2618 dependencies. autogen.sh runs util/import_gcry.py after autoconf et al,
2619 so conf/gcry.rmk's timestamp will be later than some of the
2620 autogenerated outputs.
2621 * Go back to shipping rescue images in the grub-rescue-pc .deb itself
2622 rather than generating them in the postinst. This means that (a) they
2623 get removed when the package is removed (closes: #584176); (b) they are
2624 listed in package metadata, as is proper for files in /usr (closes:
2625 #584218); (c) grub-rescue-pc can potentially be used as a
2626 build-dependency for other packages that need to build GRUB images into
2627 installation media etc., without having to build-depend on grub-pc which
2628 isn't coinstallable with other platform variants and does invasive
2629 things in its postinst.
2630 * Add grub-mkrescue patch from Thomas Schmitt to allow reducing the size
2631 of xorriso-created images. Use this to ensure that
2632 grub-rescue-floppy.img fits well within size limits (closes: #548320).

2687 tools called from os-prober don't complain about it (closes: #549976).
