Since we can't include all the languages we support, we had to define a smaller list of supported languages by default: en pt de pl fr es ja sv it hu Folks building their own sets can change this list in the top-level 'config' file; our choices here were based on the linux users per country data at http://counter.li.org/reports/short.php?orderby=users#table closes: #80942 . * updates to kernels we use: alpha uses 2.2.20 kernel images sparc moved to 2.2.20; sun4u moved to 2.4.16 i386 moved to 2.2.20 (powerpc still at 2.2.19 because pcmcia-modules-2.2.20-pmac not available) mipsel moved to 2.4.16 . * David Kimdon - report failure if dhclient cannot configure the interface, closes: #109455 - more Danish documentation and messages thanks to Claus Hindsgaul <claus_h@image.dk> - lots and lots of Danish translations thanks to Morten Bo Johansen and Claus Hindsgaul <claus_h@image.dk> - fr.po update thanks to Martin Quinson <Martin.Quinson@ens-lyon.fr> - remember gateway on the second pass through network configuration - fix badly broken language chooser, closes: #120637 - on i18n builds put libnewt-utf8-0 on rootdisk in place of libnewt0 - fix i386 build rules so the modules on the rootdisk match the kernel - i18n some strings that missed out * Claus Hindsgaul - fixups for MSG-NO and MSG-YES, new entities for defaults.ent, remove orphaned dbootstrap.sgml form doc-check - replace "ø" (unsupported in CP437) in Danish boot messages with Swedish "ö", and remove da from the latin1 list in conf, since it did not seem to work anyway - Small spelling errors in english boot-new.sgml - Danish documentation updates, thanks to Morten Bo Johansen - updated Italian dbootstrap translation by Eugenia Franzoni - modify 'make lint-docs' to verify all architectures modify 'make lint-all-lang-docs' to verify all architectures remove 'make lint-all-arch-all-lang-docs' (use lint-all-lang-docs) - Update URLs to kernel-traffic and "Definition of Open Source" - Initial Danish release-notes translation - Update kernel versions in docs to match config * Stefan Gybas - use $ldlib in mklibs.py - s390: use mklibs.py instead of mklibs.sh for library reduction - include lsmod on initrd - include ASCtoEBC and EBCtoASC in partbl_ibm.c, they are no longer in <asm/vtoc.h> - fixed detection of point-to-point interfaces - s390: rewrote netsetup to be more modular, each network module can now provide a module specific script in /usr/share/netsetup/ for the chandev/module parameter configuration - s390: install netsetup.sh as sbin/netsetup - s390: don't modify etc/passwd on the initrd any longer - s390: reduce initrd size as modules from a second initrd are now symlinked instead of copied. - s390: Always offer to format a newly attached DASD to avoid problems if a previously used VM minidisk was resized - s390: Make /sbin/fdisk a symlink to fdasd - s390: Don't ask for bad block scan when formatting a DASD - use $MIRRORS instead of $s390_url to download the s390 udeb kernel - s390: Copy /root/.profile from s390-specials instead of changing the one from base-files - s390: use mini-inetd from the tcputils package instead of netkit-inetd - s390: Use grep, ping and hostname from busybox >=1:0.60.2-2. This version fixed a bug in grep's return code for binary files - s390: Use ifconfig instead of ifup in netsetup.sh - various other minor s390 fixes * Adam Di Carlo - fix a number of other i18n build issues - 'make clean' and 'make distclean' act more consistently - powerpc build was broken in last version, removing yaboot.conf which is now in CVS and not downloaded at build time - fix some root*.bin build dependancy problems - i386 reiserfs and udma100-ext3 flavors were not being built with revext set properly, thus they were not getting the proper pcmcia modules and such, closing part of #118999 - i386 release.sh: split images-2.88 as its own tarball, bf-common*.tar.gz was getting too large - bogl-related stuff must be 0.1.8-1 or better - in i136/i18n build, don't allow reduction libnewt*-pic, since i386 uses a mixed i18n and non-i18n build - require newt 0.50.17-9 or better both for building and root.bin - dbootstrap: when you mount an existing root partition with /lib/modules on it, we adjust the rootdisk /lib/modules to it and run depmod -a; this helps when you're restarting an aborted installation - dbootstrap: suppress message to testers if we're 'quiet' - dbootstrap: clear the screen properly in i18n and non-i18n closes: #124143 - normal doc build uses docs.stamp to prevent it from getting rebuilt all the time in incremental builds - dbootstrap: improved info messages when it first starts - require debiandoc-sgml 1.1.53 or better, has locale for Catalan - require newest busybox, closes: #124107 * Ethan Benson - recent portability patch to mklibs.py requires python 2 so Build-depend on python-dev (>= 2.1.1-4), python2.1-xml - fix utilities/dbootstrap/langs/Makefile: PYTHON_VERSION=2.1 - mklibs.py now seems to work on powerpc, use it now * Christian T. Steigies - do not ship outdated m68k quickinstall docs - m68k uses 2.2.20 kernel-images * Carlos Barros: Spanish updates * David Martinez: Spanish updates * Andre Luis Lopes: Portuguese updates * Gerhard Tonn - s390 changes: make netsetup.sh more quiet and save gateway information from initial netsetup * Phil Blundell - fall back to single language mode if fbcon isn't available at runtime - fix naming of sparc driver disks in dbootstrap, closes: #118557 - enable language chooser for ARM - try to fix unloading of pcmcia modules, closes: #120480 - warn the user if trying to install on a machine with too little RAM - revert to using zip for ARM build of riscpcs install kit - enable kmod while modconf is running, closes: #78750 - correct path to root.bin in udma100-ext3 install.bat, closes: #122869 - added i386-specials/mini-iso.sh for bootable CD creation; this is just for your enjoyment, not officially provided or supported by anyone - try harder to suppress modconf i18n in UTF-8 environment, closes: #121186 - stop LC offering languages that have no catalog - improve layout of net-fetch dialog box when i18n in use, closes: #123388 - print a register dump if dbootstrap segfaults in debug mode * Chris Tillman - add notes for single-language builders, powerpc-specials always en - reorganize floppy booting section, add boot-floppy-hfs, closes: #121065 - add keyboard choice and append= line (tks Branden), closes: #122407 - add Sun workstation clues, closes: #72479 - increase memory needed for powerpc to 16M - add doc entities for kernel-version & default-2.2 - add note about possibly too much memory - cleanup release notes and put in chronological order - add note for broken OldWorld G3's - System Disk utility - add BootX instructions for booting the installer, closes: #123571, #123623 * Stephen Marenka - i386 and powerpc specifics for replacing kernel on rescue floppy * Pawel Tecza: updated Polish translation of dselect-beginner * Jordi Mallach - Catalan translation of dbootstrap and bootdisk help screens. - updates to rescue disk messages. - Catalan translation of Install Manual (Antoni Bella, Ingrid Peiró and others). * Guido Günther - mips documentation updates - add mips-specials/.cvsignore - set notInstalledLILO=0 after running dvhtool - don't call make_boot_floppy on mips(el) * Eduard Bloch: - set a sticky reference to /boot/boot-menu.b, since newer lilo packages create the symlink in the postinst and this may fail, closes: #122184 - minor de.po updates - corrected the memory size in the no-swap warning message, closes: #123167 * Mark van Walraven: - dbootstrap: when mounting on /var/tmp, use special perms, just like we do on /tmp - dbootstrap create user settings files on target root during kernel install step, instead of when target root is first mounted * Richard Hirst: - hppa now uses libc 2.2.4 - ia64: grab elilo.efi from a deb, not the build system - ia64: add "cdrom" to bootargs * Junichi Uekawa: - Japanese translation updates for ja.po - change utilities/dbootstrap/langs/japanese.src to a decent content. * Matt Kraai: - don't ask about 2.0 filesystem compatibility on mips, closes: #122940 - don't talk about virtual consoles if using a serial console, closes: #122719 - don't let ioctl.save mess up serial console settings, closes: #122720 * Andre Luis Lopes <andrelop@ig.com.br>: Brazilian updates * John H.
