commit 0a8b883c58e1054bf1bdb7e6a81d15379ca34a64
Author: Philipp Huebner <debalance@debian.org>
Date:   Wed Sep 2 21:52:28 2026 +0200

    Updated debian/changelog

commit a7cf91bbadfad0863c07ff82df8caad1b3a8f2d3
Author: Luca Boccassi <luca.boccassi@gmail.com>
Date:   Sun May 17 11:43:14 2026 +0100

    Install and use sysusers.d/tmpfiles.d config files
    
    sysusers.d/tmpfiles.d config files allow a package to use declarative
    configuration instead of manually written maintainer scripts. This
    also allows image-based systems to be created with /usr/ only, and
    also allows for factory resetting a system and recreating /etc/ on
    boot.

commit a7cf954eeacebc7ee564acc4f8e75cb5018b7455
Author: Luca Boccassi <luca.boccassi@gmail.com>
Date:   Sun May 17 11:40:16 2026 +0100

    Stop deleting system user/group on remove/purge
    
    This is widely considered bad practice, as the kernel recycles
    UIDs/GIDs. So any potential leftover file/directory can then become
    owned by the next user/group that gets added, with unpredictable
    consequences.
