Breaks libparted0debian1 (<< 2.3-5ubuntu4)

61. By Phillip Susi on 2011-03-24

Fix once again the jmicron naming bug, upstream fix does not work
(LP: #576289)

Added 24_drop_p_for_partition_conditional.patch:
dmraid was changed at one point to insert a 'p' between
the base device name and the partition number. For
some time debian and ubuntu reversed this change. This
patch modifies the behavior to add the 'p' iff the last
character of the base name is a digit. This makes
dmraid comply with the behavior used by kpartx and
"by linux since the dawn of time".

Added 23_pdc_dump_extended_metadata.patch: PDC supports up to 4
sets of metadata to describe different arrays. Only the first
set was being dumped with dmraid -rD or -n. Also fixes the
.offset file, which was always 0 instead of the actual offset.

Added 22_add_pdc_64bit_addressing.patch: PDC metadata locations for
high bytes of raid set sector count (LP: #599255)
[ Danny Wood <email address hidden> ]

57. By Phillip Susi on 2011-03-08

Added 21_fix_testing.patch: Testing with dm devices was failing
on Ubuntu because /dev/dm-X is the actual device node, but the
code wanted it to be a symlink. Fixed dm_test_device() to test
that the file ( or node it points to ) is a block device, which
seems a much more appropriate test.

* Merge from debian unstable. Remaining changes: (LP: #707776)
  - debian/dmraid-activate: Remove the special-casing of the root
    device which breaks in many situations and leaves the raw devices
    exposed. This was introduced in Debian to accommodate some broken
    configurations which wanted to access "partitions" on the raid
    raw devices. In Ubuntu, broken configurations has not been supported.
  - debian/dmraid.postinst: Comment out "udevadm trigger" call in postinst
    for now as it has severeconsequences when mountall is installed
    (clears /tmp). If dmraid is installed, then presumably the important
    system devices are up and one can be bothered with a reboot to take
    the change into account. Let update-initramfs flag the system
    as needing a reboot.
  - debian/dmraid.udev: Removed |change udev rule for dmraid-activate
    to prevent infinite udev event loop.
  - debian/patches/04_do_not_use_p_for_partition.patch: Dropped, bringing
    our device naming into line with upstream.
