Import Debian changes 1.0~pre20040408-4
aboot (1.0~pre20040408-4) unstable; urgency=low
* Add Vcs-Bzr field to debian/control.
* Add headers needed for size_t and other types with recent
linux-libc-dev.
* Pull in include/linux/ext2_fs.h from the Linux 3.2.46 source, since it's
no longer included in linux-libc-dev and recent versions are much less
userspace-friendly.
* fs/ufs.c, include/ufs.h: replace undefined types with the modern kernel
types.
* tools/objstrip.c: fix elf structure definitions.
* tools/isomarkboot.c: avoid mixing kernel and libc headers.
Closes: #652598.
* Correct accidental revert of upstream sources in 1.0~pre20040408.
Closes: #524916.
* Replace mkisofs with genisoimage in Suggests. Closes: #601260.
* Fix debian/control to use ${misc:Depends} everywhere. Thanks to
Benjamin Kerensa <bkerensa@ubuntu.com> for the patch. Closes: #692636.
* Update debian/copyright to copyright-format 1.0.
* Modernize debian/rules: debhelper 9, dh(1).
* Add rough support for cross-building.
* Split sgmtools-lite into Build-Depends-Indep.
* Use Breaks/Replaces instead of Conflicts for historical replaces.
* Fix the doc-base section.
* Bump to Standards-Version 3.9.3; no changes required.
aboot (1.0~pre20040408-3) unstable; urgency=low
[ Helge Kreutzmann ]
* Fix wrong sync from alioth for aboot.conf.(sgml|5), e2writeboot.8,
swriteboot.8
* debian/control: Move section to admin to match overrides
* Remove incorrect isomarkboot.8 (as upstream did), this is in section 1
* Update my e-mail address also in every man page (where applicable)
* Slightly improve debian/rules
* Add a note for people intending to recompile aboot on stable (Etch)
* Update TODO
* Update download location of milo in appropriate READMEs
* Bump standards version to 3.7.3.0 (no changes required)
[ Steve Langasek ]
* Drop the reference to asm/page.h from zip/main.c since it isn't actually
needed, fixing a build failure with current linux-libc-dev; thanks to
Philipp Benner <pbenner@uni-osnabrueck.de> for pointing out the obvious
fix. Closes: #480364.
* disk.c: drop reference to asm/elf.h.
* tools/objstrip.c: drop reference to asm/elf.h; use a.out.h instead
of linux/a.out.h, which is no longer provided by the kernel; and
include a copy of the elf_check_arch() define from the old asm/elf.h
in the event that we're building against recent kernel headers.
* tools/elfencap.c: there is only one right answer for each of ELF_CLASS,
ELF_DATA, and ELF_ARCH; reference these values directly, for
compatibility with linux-libc-dev 2.6.24 and above.
* Take over from Helge as maintainer; thanks for all your work!
Closes: #315592.
aboot (1.0~pre20040408-2) unstable; urgency=low
* Include userspace headers from lib/isolib.c instead of kernel
headers; this isn't kernel code anyway, and the kernel headers don't
work right on i386 the way they're being used.
aboot (1.0~pre20040408-1) unstable; urgency=low
[ Steve Langasek ]
* New upstream version, pulled from CVS snapshot.
* Drop separate faq-src directory, now merged upstream as doc/faq
* Fix header references in multiple files, and import a local copy of
asm-alpha/pal.h and asm-alpha/system.h from the kernel sources for
use by head.S and aboot.c, for the switch to linux-libc-dev in
lenny. Closes: #437296.
* Update debian/rules to use DEB_HOST_GNU_CPU instead of
DEB_HOST_GNU_TYPE, to fix a misbuild in unstable.
* Fix wrong manpage section for srmbootraw(8) in the clean target
* Update bootlx to ignore ELF header sections not of type PT_LOAD when
loading the kernel, so that the new PT_NOTE sections in 2.6.23rc1 and
above don't cause load failures. Thanks to Richard Henderson for the
patch. Closes: #438431.
* Drop unneeded build-dependency on linux-kernel-headers, which is
build-essential.
[ Helge Kreutzmann ]
* Fix minor typos in German man pages.
* Update my e-mail address in debian related files
* Do not ignore errors in clean targets (thanks, lintian)
* Bump standards version to 3.7.2.2
* Bump dephelper level to 5
aboot (0.9b-3) unstable; urgency=low
* Synced man pages with upstream: aboot.conf.sgml, aboot.sgml,
abootconf.sgml, e2writeboot.8, isomarkboot.sgml, sdisklabel.sgml,
swriteboot.8.
* Took german translation of man pages from upstream.
* Minor code issues synced from upstream CVS (partially for testing
builds). Closes: #258594.
* Include patch to make isomarkboot endian-safe. Thanks to Steve McIntyre,
Closes: #253846.
* Add netabootwrap man page (english and german).
* Fix netabootwrap so that it stops claiming to be bootp.
aboot (0.9b-2) unstable; urgency=low
* Actually install the netabootwrap binary so that people can use it
(really-closes: #127303).
aboot (0.9b-1) unstable; urgency=low
* New maintainer.
* Build all our tools with "-D_LARGEFILE_SOURCE -D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64",
so they can handle accessing files > 4GB (e.g., DVD images for
isomarkboot) (closes: #228235).
* Include patch from Chris Lumens (upstream) for building with
additional flags (e.g. "-g").
* Enable noopt in DEB_BUILD_OPTIONS build with "-g" always for now; also
stripping can be disabled now.
* Enable the all-package to be build on non-alpha archs as well
(typo & thinko in debian/rules).
* FOREIGN for building on non-alpha archs is gone, it was not necessary.
* Conflict aboot with aboot-cross as the latter package
is no longer build on Alpha but contained in aboot.
* Fixed dependencies (dropped woody only docbook2man)
* Added SRM-HOWTO (and updated description) built from SGML sources and
added into doc-base.
* Removed source diff target in rules file
* Turn off DH_VERBOSE, so our builds are a bit more palatable
* Don't forget to create the 'boot' directory in the install target
* Fix the srmbootfat manpage's section (8->1)
* Updated TODO list.
* Improved & split man pages for srmbootfat/srmbootraw.
* Clarified copyright (we are using a stable upstream release).
* Slightly updated isomarkboot.sgml
* Include netboot patch from
Soohoon Lee <soohoon.lee@api-networks.com> (closes: #127303).
aboot (0.9b-0.3) unstable; urgency=low
* Non-maintainer upload.
* Fix package split so that aboot-cross isn't needed on alpha,
and aboot-base isn't attempted on non-alpha systems (in spite of
being arch: all).
* Put srmbootfat and isomarkboot both in /usr/bin, for consistency.
* Fix package priorities/sections to match archive overrides.
* Reorder headers in lib/isolib.c, needed for building on i386.
* Change aboot.conf from a conffile to maintainer script-managed
config file, so that aboot-installer can do its job.
aboot (0.9b-0.2) unstable; urgency=low
* Non-maintainer upload.
* Change the order of docbook2man and docbook-utils in the
build-depends list, to satisfy the autobuilders. Closes: #225938
aboot (0.9b-0.1) unstable; urgency=low
* NMU.
* Upgraded to 0.9b.
* Switched from dh_installmanpages to dh_installman.
* Included latest version of all man pages. Closes: #57804
* All man pages are now created at build time from their sgml source.
* Updated README.Debian -- upstream maintainer is now Will Woods -- and
copyright -- home page is sourceforge now --.
* Move isomarkboot to /usr/bin and the manpage into section 1
* Include upstream changelog
* Upgraded to standards version 3.6.1.0. Partially support DEB_BUILD_OPTIONS.
* Split package into three packages to enable isomarkboot to be used on
other archs (e.g. for d-i); since we run into conflicts with two
packages three were needed, where aboot-base just contains common files
needed for booting (which need to be built on alpha). Closes: #211777
* We depend on "linux-kernel-headers" to properly build isomarkboot,
patched "include/utils.h" to properly include the "asm"-headers
* Patched "lib/Makefile" to only use "no-fp-regs" for isomarkboot if
building for alpha
* Added srmbootfat and srmbootraw from the milo package
http://www.suse.de/~stepan/source/milo-2.2-18.tar.bz2
The man page was slightly updated (spell checking, formatting, SEE ALSO).
Closes: #173620
Applied a patch from Falk Hueffner <falk.hueffner@student.uni-tuebingen.de>
to get_fat_entry in srmbootfat/srmbootfat.c to make it portable
* Stole patches from CVS HEAD/Jeff.Wiedemeier@hp.com for USB console and
to check kernel memory against console memory descriptors.
These two patches should allow booting on Wildfire.
* Disable check for vol-set-size in lib/isolib.c as sets of volumes are
perfectly fine. For explanation of this term, see e.g. section 4.16 and
4.17 in http://www.y-adagio.com/public/standards/iso_cdromr/sect_1.htm
Closes: #149840
* Added extra-args patch from RedHat/Will Wood to allow calls like
dka0 -fl "0 console=ttyS0"
This will be in the next official aboot release as well.
aboot (0.9-1.1) unstable; urgency=low
* NMU.
* Use -fno-builtin-printf when compiling, so we don't end up with
references to gcc's implementation. Closes: 205864
aboot (0.9-1) unstable; urgency=low
* New upstream release. Closes: #117973
aboot (0.8-1) unstable; urgency=low
* New upstream (from CVS)
* I am calling this version of aboot from CVS 0.8.
* Minor tweeks to make it compile with kernel 2.4.x headers.
* e2writeboot now returns non-zero on error. Closes: #107757
aboot (0.7a-1) unstable; urgency=low
* New upstream release
* added Build-Depends line to debian/control. Closes: #70114

* Added patch from Jay Estabrook (via RedHat) for volumes larger than
2GB.
aboot (0.5-3) unstable; urgency=low
* Included patches from Loic Prylli, closing #34109:
- A bug fix in isolib.c which could cause isomarkboot to segfault (and
probably also bootlx to have undefined behaviour at run-time), if a
directory entry is in the middle of a 2k block.
- A bug fix for sdisklabel whcih segfault when called with only one
argument
- some more functionality in isomarkboot to set a offset to a root
filesystem image in the CD in the application_data fied of the first
volume descriptor.
* Increase maximum partitions from 8 to 16
