* Start jessie work; copy things from the wheezy config for now.
* Remove older squeeze, lenny, etch dirs
* Move code hosting from svn to git.
* Make sure that when we call apt, we tell it to *not* use localised
  package descriptions; this causes issues during build. See #712435 in
  apt.
* List Translation files in dists/$dist/Release too - apt looks there
  now instead of in Index, apparently.
* Remove mention/support of the s390(x) tape options; not created by d-i
  any more, and this is causing build failures.
* Remove mention/support of old kfreebsd 8 kernels - they are not
  created any more, and this is causing build failures.
* Remove s390 from the arch lists in various scripts, as it's going
  away. Support remains if specifically configured yet.
* tools/update_tasks: don't hard-code the default desktop to use,
  instead work it out directly from the dependencies of the task-desktop
  package.
* tools/boot/jessie/*: Pull out some more common code into common.sh to
  simplify the various boot-$arch scripts. Warn about potentially
  insecure download locations.

[ Robert Spencer ]
* Build without isolinux/desktop. Closes: #706150
* Don't assume loadlin.exe exists. Closes: #706156

[ Joey Hess ]
* Add make and gcc back to forcecd1, to allow building out of tree
  kernel wifi modules. I removed this and more earlier while cleaning
  out undocuented cruft.
  (I have not added back module-assistant so far,
  since it needs build-essential which would pull in additional
  dependencies.)

  so old that they don't support this flag, *and* the dpkg-query call
  doesn't give us the right version anyway - we're using an extracted

* Merge x86 EFI support from the EFI_support branch (Closes: #658352)
  + Pull in grub-efi for amd64 and i386
  + Lots of extra code in boot-x86:
    - pull grub EFI pieces out of the latest debian-cd_info.tar.gz
      blobs in d-i, if they're there. If so, use them to make x86 images
      bootable via EFI (both via CD and USB)
    - parse the isolinux menus already provided in the d-i build and
      generate equivalent grub menus, complete with themes for a
      reasonable layout with graphics and titles.
    - depending more and more on xorriso rather than genisoimage...
* Add version-tracking into dependency sorting. Closes: #687949)
  + Use/parse output from a newer version of apt so that "apt-cache
    depends" will include version information on dependencies.
  + All tracking of packages now include versions, so we pass around
    hashes of {package name, comparison op, version} everywhere instead
    of simply passing package names as strings.
  + Add the APT::Cache::ShowVersion=1 option to apt-cache calls to
    turn on version reporting. Needs a locally-patched version of apt
    *for now*, but expecting that to be fixed for the Wheezy
    release. The new code degrades gracefully if version info is not
    available.
  + Add a dependency on libdpkg-perl for version comparison code.
* Improve architecture support in which_deb. Closes: #695244
  + Check all the architectures available in the archive if we're not
    specifically told which to use (e.g. on source builds)
  + If we fail to find packages/sources for the specified package, say
    so and bail out properly.
* Switch boot-x86 to depend on xorriso totally rather than genisoimage
  now; working UEFI support needs it. We also need very recent (1.2.6)
  xorriso for various bugfixes, ideally.

[ Steve McIntyre ]
* Merge update-cd changes back from the squeeze branch:
  + Remove the old non-US stuff from it, it's not been needed in years.
  + Cope with .bz2 source files too.
  + Merged and simplified the old functionality from scansources.old
    and scanpackages.old into the new script create_control.
  + Run the mkisofs step *outside* of "set -e" so that we can actually
    report errors instead of silently failing.
  + Split out the code for starting a new disc into a function.
  + Pick up on a potential bug: if we finish the last (expected) disc with
    a backed-out file, make sure we create another image to include that
    file too.
* Update make_disc_trees.pl and which_deb to cope with different
  types of source file, and clean up the code in that area.
* tools/make_image: generate list files while we have the CD trees
  available
* update the URL for downloading s390 d-i dailies.
* Add linux-image-2.6-686-bigmem to tasks/<release>/interesting-fromcd23
  to try and put that on i386 image sets before linux-image-amd64.
  Closes: #622622
* update the URL for downloading i386 d-i dailies.

    (don't assume field ordering).
  + Switch from awk to perl makes things much faster too!
  + Make arch handling more generic - instead of having to list all
    arches, allow a wildcard and then check for lack of Packages.gz files
* tools/make-firmware-image: Rather than use the firmware task which
  gets out of date, look for firmware/microcode files directly in the

  those packages.
* Remove the checked-in firmware task altogether, as it's not

* Cleanup of packages included for bootable CDs (generate_d-i+k_list):
  - libsysfs2 workaround is no longer needed;
  - discover is no longer used anywhere;
  - include grub-legacy instead of grub;
  - pcmcia-cs has been fully replaced with pcmciautils.
* Exclude udebs for X.Org-based version of the Graphical Installer.
* Excluding reiserfs4 udebs is not needed for Squeeze.
* Include pciutils on installation CDs.
* Only include a symlink for the suite actually specified in the
  Release file. Closes: #590993

[ Karl Goetz ]

* Documentation patches

[ Steve McIntyre ]
* Rename log.add_packages to add_packages.log
* Add dependency on dpkg-dev for dpkg-architecture. Closes: #574879
* Add support for forcing firmware packages onto CD#1:
  + Add "FORCE_FIRMWARE=1" to CONF.sh to turn this on
  + Will pick up on packages in the "firmware" task and install them
  + Will also add sym-links to them in CD1/firmware so that new d-i code
    can find them easily.
  + Will add a short sentence into README.html/README.txt
* Add top-level control of which checksums are desired for output images
  see the CHECKSUMS setting in CONF.sh
* Fix some bashisms in tools/apt-selection.
* When generating both iso and jigdo files, make sure that the iso files
  are at least as new as the jigdo files, as this helps people mirroring.
  Closes: #587774
* On release builds, use the full version number including all the dots
  (e.g. 6.0.0 for the squeeze release instead of 600).
* Update loadlin kernel parameters to match d-i values. Thanks to Samuel
  Thibault for the patch. Closes: #594267
* Fix support for alternative boot splash images. Thanks to Tony Awtrey
  for the patch. Closes: #537368

[ Frans Pop ]
* Adjust x86 boot scripts for new version (2.0) of framework in D-I for
  creation of syslinux configuration files. Essentially the new version
  is a backport of what was already implemented in debian-cd before the
  release of Lenny and allows a significant simplification.
  There are no significant changes in generated CD/DVD images.
* Split out code for workaround for #505243 to x86-desktop function library.
* sparc: display message for unsupported subarchitectures.
* Only do boot disk stuff for x86 and alpha if the image is supposed to be
  bootable. Avoids downloading x86 D-I images for all 30+ CDs in a full set.
* Don't download floppy D-I images for i386; they're no longer available.
* Don't fetch D-I images for the prep subarchitecture; it is not available.
* Add path when sourcing CONF.sh for compatibility with dash. Spotted by
  Ian Campbell.
* Add console-setup to packages needed for D-I.

[ Steve McIntyre ]
* Remove bashism in tools/apt-selection. Closes: #530972

[ Ian Campbell ]
* Add support for "variants". A variant allows to include/exclude additional
  packages or D-I components relative to a regular image.
* Add variant to create i386/amd64 images that support installing Xen guests.
* Recognise and ignore Enhances: lines.
* Create apt/preferences.d in APTTMP, keeps newer apt from printing a warning.

* Fallback looking for syslinux/silo/yaboot in $CODENAME when $DI_CODENAME
  didn't gave any result. This is useful when using partial mirrors built by
  simple-cdd while trying to build a Debian CD using a newer d-i (in my case
  etch CD with lenny d-i).
* Use dpkg --fsys-tarfile instead of ar for extracting files from deb
  packages. The previous invocation could have failed for packages using
  something other than gzip compression.
* Fix syntax errors in tools/boot/{lenny,squeeze}/boot-m68k (thanks to
  lintian).

[ Steve McIntyre ]
* Fix link in README.html.in for lenny, and update squeeze to match.
  Closes: #542191

[ Frans Pop ]
* s390: Add boot files specifying offset and size of the initrd for booting
  from CD. Change is based on SuSE's CD boot. Many thanks to Adam Thornton,
  Mark Post and Bastian Blank for providing the pointers to the missing bits.

[ Steve McIntyre ]
* Add support for coping with binary and source packages that are too
  large to fit. If we have to remove packages and their dependencies,
  list them in README.excluded in the root of disc 1.

[ Joey Hess ]
* Add firmware-linux-nonfree to firmware list. Left firmware-linux for now
  though it is now only a dependency package.
* Add firmware-linux-free to firmware list, as a convenient way to make
  it available along with the other firmware files. (It could, instead,
  be included directly in d-i images, if there were a udeb.)
  Closes: 566561

[ Karl Goetz ]
* Improve the description for MAXCDS in the conf file. (Closes: #570028)
* Export the CDNAME variable in the conf file. (Closes: #570470)

[ Steve McIntyre ]
* Cope with errors reported from debootstrap better; don't just treat
  the text output as package names. Closes: #570474

Author: Steve McIntyre
Revision Date: 2009-05-16 22:12:32 UTC

[ Frans Pop ]
* Add support for squeeze.

[ Colin Watson ]
* Luk Claes has taken over alpha, amd64, mips, and mipsel daily d-i
  builds.

[ Steve McIntyre ]
* Don't call images beta if they're using OFFICIAL_VAL == 2.
  Closes: #516353
* Add wpasupplicant to tasks/*/forcd1 . Closes: #517298. It's a small
  package that should fit easily.
* tools/sort_deps: Sort dependencies better: if A dep B then we should
  NOT list A before B. Closes: #518145.

[ Joey Hess ]
* Add firmware-linux to firmware task.
* Re-add zd1211-firmware to firmware task.

[ Steve McIntyre ]
* tools/imagesums: Add support for more checksum types. genisoimage
  will shortly start generating sha256 and sha512 sums too.
* Recognise and ignore Breaks: lines. Closes: #523444
* Re-add code to generate install.bat on x86 machines. Thanks to Samuel
  Thibault for the patch. Closes: #518807
* Modify README.html: only attempt to link to the release notes and
  installation manual on release-ready builds, otherwise suggest the
  alioth version of the installation manual. Closes: #330398

Author: Frans Pop
Revision Date: 2009-01-12 16:07:35 UTC

[ Frans Pop ]
* Don't include brltty on netinst images as it pulls in libicu which causes
  a 5MB size increase of the image, which is out of proportion given its use.
  This should not affect users as netinst installs should normally use a
  mirror and thus the package will be installed from there if needed.
  brltty will still get included on full CDs and DVDs through forcd1.
* Remove references to no longer used files rawlist.exclude and list.exclude.
* Clean up no longer needed compatibility code in lenny x86 boot script.

[ Steve McIntyre ]
* Rename list2cds to sort_deps.
* Fix how directory trees are created in update-cd. Closes: #503911.
* Update update_popcon to cope better with errors; now uses curl instead
  of wget.

[ Raphael Hertzog ]
* Don't try to copy sbm on etch CD images as it got removed.
* Also extract isolinux.bin from the syslinux package in the case of etch
  CD images (since it's no more provided by debian-cd itself).

[ Frans Pop ]
* Rework the way tasks are handled:
  - all tasks files are moved to ./tasks/<codename> subdirectories so they
    can be more easily kept up-to-date with specific distro releases
  - always generate the debian-installer and tasksel tasks dynamically:
    . all task files for the desired suite are copied to the working
      directory at the beginning of each build, and are used from there
    . the debian-installer and tasksel tasks are no longer included in
      releases but are always created automatically at build time; this
      means users no longer need to run the generate_di_* scripts or the
      update_tasksel script
    . the popcon task file will remain included as a static file, but plan
      is to add an option to update it automatically for each build; reason
      is that updating it requires network access
  - bump version to 3.1
* Update the contrib/testingcds script based on its current version on
  farbror.
* Clean up and update interesting-fromcd23 and exclude task files for lenny.
* Fix error in expansion of %ARCH% variables in D-I image location envvars.
* Fix i386/amd64 multi-arch support in the lenny x86 boot script so that the
  isolinux config gets modified correctly independent of the order in which
  the arches are specified.
* Workaround #505243 by modifying the syslinux configuration for amd64/i386
  multi-arch images and using ifcpu64.c32 to autodetect 32/64-bit systems
  when a user hits enter from the isolinux help screens. Based on research
  done by Franklin Piat.

[ Steve McIntyre ]
* Stop copying the /tools/ directory on from the mirror; it's going away.
* Add support for multiple desktop tasks on a single disk
* Add support for tracking which packages we've extracted binaries from,
  so that we can archive them (both binaries and sources). If we need
  anything, we will list it in CD$N.pkgs_extracted so that external
  scripts can pick it up and do whatever's needed.
* Minor changes to the interface of tools/which_deb to accommodate that:
  now just lists the files *within* the mirror; it's up to callers to
  prepend ${MIRROR} as needed.

[ Frans Pop ]
* make_image: ensure correct quoting of variables when calling genisoimage.
  Closes: #507300.
* boot-hppa: support KERNEL_PARAMS (so desktop= can be passed).
* boot-hppa: stop passing redundant boot parameters root and ramdisk_size.
* Split out languages supported by D-I and tasksel from task.list files.
  Instead of duplicating what language tasks should be included in each
  task.list.* file, let update_tasks add them dynamically at runtime from a
  single list of languages supported by tasksel and D-I. This also makes
  maintaining the lists a lot less painful. Closes: #506616.
* Indicate which tasks are "secondary" by adding a "-" suffix in task.list.*
  files instead of hardcoding it in update_tasks. Closes: #506668.
* Add new file tasks/README.tasksel to document the way tasksel tasks are
  used when determining the order in which packages are added to images.
* Update list of languages supported by tasksel and D-I for Lenny.
* Add support for a separate 'LXDE desktop environment' CD.
* Add support for a 'light desktop environment' CD (LXDE + Xfce).
  Includes a framework to manipulate the isolinux configuration for x86 so
  that a user can select which desktop he wishes to install.
* Add support to create an 'all desktops' DVD.
  This new task will include all four desktop environments supported by
  tasksel (GNOME, KDE, LXDE and Xfce). On x86 it will also add an option in
  the isolinux menu (under Advanced options) to select which DE to install,
  but GNOME will remain default.
* Add support for a separate 'GNOME desktop environment' CD.
  This new task is mostly added for completeness. Main difference with the
  default task file is that no server tasks are included.
* Add a suffix "generic" to the default task files to make the overall naming
  scheme more consistent. It also allows to make update_tasks more generic.
* Update exclude list for Lenny:
  - remove aspell* packages as they do not included on CD1 anyway and
    excluding them also means they get excluded from DVD1;
  - remove xen/vserver linux-image packages as they do not get included on
    CD1 anyway;
  - xmail and cdebconf were added as they got pulled in through alternative
    dependencies, which is no longer an issue.
* Give priority to Key packages over regular packages for secondary tasks
  (similar to what we already did for primary tasks).
* README.easy-build: document how to use custom packages and D-I images.
* Add myself as uploader.

Author: Steve McIntyre
Revision Date: 2008-03-17 23:16:20 UTC

[ Frans Pop ]
* Disable debugging output in boot scripts.

[ Otavio Salvador ]
* Applied patch from Robert Millan <rmh@aybabtu.com> to integrate
  win32-loader. Closes: #440220.
* Applied patch from Robert Millan <rmh@aybabtu.com> to fix image
  generation with read-only mirrors. Closes: #441397.
* Applied patch from Robert Millan <rmh@aybabtu.com> to use win32-loader
  for autorun when CD is being used on Windows. Closes: #441846.
* Exclude dhcp-client-udeb since it's not being used and transition for
  dhcp3-client-udeb has over.
* Exclude multipath-udeb and libaio1-udeb since they're not being use
  yet.
* Fix autorun.inf generation when win32-loader is present.
* Applied patch from Nicolas François <nicolas.francois@centraliens.net>
  to allow README.html translation using po4a.
* Remove the 'Last Modified' date from data/lenny/README.html.in since
  it's useless.
* Use DEBOOTSTRAP_SCRIPT, BASE_INCLUDE and BASE_EXCLUDE variables to
  calculate the base packages set
* Hide image creation command if not using verbosing make

[ Steve McIntyre ]
* Make daily i386/amd64 lenny builds work again - don't attempt to copy
  the win32-loader files into place if they don't exist.
* Remove Depends: on sysutils. Closes: #437497 (again)

[ Jérémy Bobbio ]
* README.html: Integrate a new look for README.html done by Kalle Söderman.
  Huge thanks to him!
* README: Improve the wording when building a netinst or business card by
  being a little bit more specific than just saying: CD 1 out of 1. This
  meant adding new defines "DISKTYPE$DISKTYPE".

[ Joey Hess ]
* Include dmraid deb. Closes: #443991
* Add acpi-support-base to generate_di+k_list.

[ Steve McIntyre ]
* Newer versions of debootstrap have moved the scripts from /usr/lib to
  /usr/share. Add a sym-link to cope - let's keep compatible with etch
  as much as possible. Also, log what debootstrap told us (in
  debootstrap-list) rather than just including the results directly in
  rawlist.

[ Frans Pop ]
* build_all.sh: don't source CONF.sh after already sourcing $CF earlier.
* CONF.sh: add non-invasive option to avoid sourcing CONF.sh twice when
  using wrapper scripts.
* CONF.sh: Don't set MAXCDS by default; was probably changed by accident.
* boot-{mipsel,sparc}: Parse website directory index case insensitive so
  that both "<a href=" and "<A HREF=" are recognized.
* Include busybox for architectures that use initramfs-tools; base-installer
  will try to install it.
* tools/update_tasks: ignore comments and blank lines in tasks/task.list.
* tasks/task.list*
  - add missing l10n tasks: gujarati-desktop, malayalam-desktop, tamil
  - comment out l10n tasks for languages not supported in D-I, for
    Icelandic, Irish, Serbian, Welsh and Xhosa
* lenny tasks: update for current task lists; set svn:keywords so the date
  header gets updated.
* Instead of including all alternative dependencies in list2cds, only
  include the first one. This reduces the size of the netinst and improves
  what's included on CD1. Only loss is console-{data,common,tools} so these
  are now added in generate_di+k_list. Reduces impact of #410418.
* exclude-udebs: exclude any libdirectfb udeb instead of particular version.
* exclude-udebs: exclude kbd-udeb and console-setup udebs (not yet used).
* During installation debootstrap will complain about an invalid Release file
  if there is no Packages file for the local section. Create an empty Packages
  file if one is missing.
* start_new_disc: make multi-arch CD/DVDs and CD/DVDs that are not part of a
  set (e.g. KDE/Xfce CDs) recognizable through info in .disk directory.
* Makefile: debootstrap no longer accepts options with empty values; change
  the way include/exclude options are passed accordingly.

[ Steve McIntyre ]
* Significant cleanup of list2cds. Closes: #451237
* tools/imagesums: use newer features in latest mkisofs/genisoimage to grab
  pre-calculated MD5 and SHA1 checksums directly from the jigdo file.

[ Otavio Salvador ]
* Make sure we include laptop-detect on arches that are know to have
  laptops (i386, amd64 and powerpc).
* Make sure we include grub-pc since it's used when GPT disk label is
  chosen.

[ Steve McIntyre ]
* Fix a bug in start_new_disc - cope with MAXCDS not being set.
* Temporarily disable boot support for arm CDs - the netwinder images are not
  being produced at the moment.

[ Raphael Hertzog ]
* Switch to genisoimage as default ISO generator as mkisofs has been dropped
  from Debian. Closes: #468850
* Add Vcs-Browser field.
* If genisomage is not available, try to fallback on mkisofs.
* New OMIT_DOC_TOOLS option to be able to work with mirrors that do not
  contain the doc and tools directories.

[ Frans Pop ]
* Ensure that the correct version of the Installation Guide is included.
* Lenny will be version 5.0.

Author: Steve McIntyre
Revision Date: 2007-09-01 23:58:42 UTC

[ Steve McIntyre ]
* In start_new_disc, cope with $DEBVERSION containing spaces.
* Only put the release notes and installation guide on disc#1.
* In list2cds, don't add udebs in the final COMPLETE run -
  they're no use there.
* Add some munging on the Release files if we're not building
  for "testing". Used in the etch release, and I'll back it out shortly.
* Copied etch files to lenny ready for the new testing work.

[ Frans Pop ]
* Clean up: remove files for potato and woody releases.

[ Steve McIntyre ]
* Removed m68k from the list of arches in generate_di+k_list and
  generate_di_list to reduce warnings.
* Updated comments in update-cd; potato was a while ago!
* It seems the changes for 3.0.0 completely broke extranonfree
  support. Re-add it.

[ Frans Pop ]
* Dann Frazier has taken over from Jeff Bailey for daily IA64 D-I builds.
* General update the template for the README file; explain the difference
  between small and full images better. Closes: #418195.

[ Steve McIntyre ]
* Re-added DEBOOTSTRAP_DIR definition in the Makefile
* Don't hack with the Release file unless EARLY_BUILD_HACK=1.
  Closes: #423463

[ Joey Hess ]
* Remove pcmcia-cs-udeb from udeb_include; we don't need this udeb with
  modern kernels. (We didn't need it for etch either actually.)

[ Steve McIntyre ]
* Fix for multi-arch CDs including source - the extranonfree update
  broke the source output

[ Frans Pop ]
* Include both dhcp-client-udeb and dhcp3-client udeb while we're
  transitioning in the installer.
* Exclude live-installer, simple-cdd, pwgen and nbd udebs as they are
  currently not used in Debian Installer.
* Remove support for sparc32 as it is no longer supported for Lenny.

[ Steve McIntyre ]
* Update unstable-map: in the Makefile - use lenny rather than etch

[ Petter Reinholdtsen ]
* Update tools/grab_md5 to use the same variable name (SUITE->CODENAME)
  as the rest of the code, to reduce confusion.

[ Joey Hess ]
* Drop old with26 cruft for lenny.
* Update lenny's isolinux.bin to the one from syslinux 3.51-1
* Parse isolinux.cfg case-insensatively.
* Merge boot-i386 and boot-amd64 into boot-x86.

[ Otavio Salvador ]
* Fix extranonfree support to be backward compatible with previous
  behaviour (default to false)
* Create dpkg status file before calling APT

[ Steve McIntyre ]
* Fix boot-x86 shell syntax so it runs
* Further logic fixing in boot-x86: amd64 should now work
* Temporary fixup for daily lenny sparc builds - use older image locations
  if new ones not available.
* Remove Build-Dep-Indep on sysutils. Closes: #437497
* In build.sh, use $DI_CODENAME for installer task files rather than
  $CODENAME - allows for sid builds more easily etc.
* Recompress the Packages files separately just before generating
  Release files. Closes: #423835, thanks to fjp for the patch.
* Check if required base packages might also be supplied by a local
  repository too, not just the main distribution. Closes: #425600
* Merge update-cd changes across from the version in etch.

Author: Steve McIntyre
Revision Date: 2007-03-28 22:57:41 UTC

[ Steve McIntyre ]
* Remove mention of m68k in data/etc/README.html.in.
* Other small wording changes and fixes in the README file.
* Fix up the Debian_etch, Debian_etch-kde and Debian_etch-xfce
  to use debian-installer+kernel-etch rather than -sid. Closes: #416551.
* Fix up boot-alpha to calculate the size of the ramdisk needed, rather
  than hard-coding to 16384. Also slight refactoring.

[ Frans Pop ]
* Add initrd-tools to forcd1 as it is needed for Sarge to Etch upgrades.

[ Steve McIntyre ]
* YA "last for etch" upload.

Author: Steve McIntyre
Revision Date: 2006-10-08 14:46:48 UTC

[ Joey Hess ]
* Remove net-drivers access floppy from full CD images.

[ Frans Pop ]
* Consistently change location for installation guide to /doc/manual
  on the CD.
* Update author (and timestamp) in README.
* Colin Watson has taken over daily d-i builds for PowerPC.

[ Steve McIntyre ]
* Fix to tools/grab_md5: when building the md5-list, DO NOT use the
  "current" symlink in the d-i directories - that causes jigdo problems
  later on. Use the real dirs (as dated) instead.

[ Frans Pop ]
* Remove exclusion of openbsd-inetd for Etch as it is now the prefered
  dependency from netbase. For some reason debootstrap requires both inetd
  packages, so don't exclude netkit-inetd.
  Makes full/netinst images have base_installable again.
* Thiemo Seufer has resumed building images for mips.

[ Colin Watson ]
* Only tell mkisofs to use the prep initrd if it's available (which it
  currently isn't for 2.6.16).

[ Steve McIntyre ]
* Fix to tools/grab_md5: reset the file and dir name after each source
  package is finished with.
* Add extra debug in tools/boot/etch/boot-i386

[ Joey Hess ]
* ths has taken over mipsel builds
* Add sudo to generate_di+k_list, it's needed for installs w/o a root user.
* Add support to boot/etch/boot-i386 for adding gtk images. If the
  isolinux files include .with26+gtk, include gtk initrd along with the
  2.4 kernel. If .withgtk, include gtk initrd along with the default
  (presumably 2.6) kernel.
* i386 has stopped building because the el-torito boot images were turned
  off (due to size issues). Fix this by not failing if the el-torito images
  arn't there.
* d-i doesn't include bast images anymore, drop from boot-arm.
* Update task.list adding more language tasks.
* Update task-essential-etch build recipe to exclude the kde-desktop
  task since it won't fit on the CD.
* Move kde-desktop to end of task.list for same reason.
* Update task-full-etch to current tasksel.

[ Steve McIntyre ]
* Add better GNU/kFreeBSD support in setting ARCH in CONF.sh.
  Closes: #327470

[ Joey Hess ]
* Applied patch from smarenka to add 2.6 kernels for m68k, also 2.4 kernels
  for appropriate m68k subarches, and also emile, amiboot, atari-bootstrap,
  and initramfs-tools for m68k.

[ Steve McIntyre ]
* Add extra arm kernels and more utilities into the task lists.
  Closes: #373225

[ Joey Hess ]
* Correct url to the amd64 dailys.
* Add gtk initrd to amd64 images if available.
* Add autorun file to amd64 images if there's a README.html, same as for
  i386.
* Add pcmciautils-udeb to udeb_include lists; something needs to pull it
  in and like pcmcia-cs-udeb its priority won't.

[ Frans Pop ]
* Wouter Verhelst has taken over daily d-i builds for powerpc.
* AMD64 d-i images are now available from people.d.o.
* Add cryptsetup to first CD; needed for installations using encrypted
  partitions.

[ Joey Hess ]
* Add 686 kernels, since the netinst CD is much larger and can now easily
  fit them and this makes the CD much more attractive for many users.

[ Frans Pop ]
* Drop 2.4 support for sparc64; switch from 2.4 to 2.6 for sparc32.
* Exclude 2.4 kernel udebs for sparc and s/390 (s/390 has switched to 2.6).
* Include only 2.6 kernel images for sparc.
* Update to libdevmapper1.02.
* No need to include yaird for m68k.
* Drop initrd-tools for ia64, powerpc and sparc.
* Include initramfs-tools instead of yaird for ia64 and sparc.
* No initramfs generator needed for mips, mipsel and m68k.

[ Steve McIntyre ]
* Switch from 2.4 to 2.6 kernels for arm, mips and mipsel.
* Switch from yaird over to initramfs-tools for arm.
* Much simplified generate_di+k_list - mips and mipsel don't need script
  fragments any more.
* Added elilo for i386.

[ Joey Hess ]
* Update task-essential-etch.
* Update task.list to include all the new language tasks.
* Update task-full-etch.

[ Steve McIntyre ]
* Mips has dropped r5k-ip22 kernels and gained r5k-ip32. And r5k-ip32
  doesn't have CD boot support yet, so don't attempt to use the cdrom
  boot image.

[ Frans Pop ]
* There are no "tape" images with 2.6.16 for S/390.
* Exclude floppy and el-torito images for i386 as they are not being built.
* Update exclude-udebs lists.
* Exclude 2.4.27 kernel packages from CD1 for sparc and s/390.
* Exclude 2.6.15 kernel header and image packages from CD1.
* Exclude 2.6.16 xen and vserver kernel packages from CD1.
* Update generate_di+k_list to include libsysfs2.
* Update popularity contest data for etch.
* Update generate_di+k_list to include libdiscover1.

[ Petter Reinholdtsen ]
* Add more features to get_diskusage.pl, making it easier to track
  dependencies and rejected packages.
* Correct splash screen generation for sarge and etch, making sure the
  correct background colour (black) is selected.

[ Steve McIntyre ]
* Try to fix the "unofficial development version" bug on official CDs.

[ Joey Hess ]
* Include libc6-i686 in generate_di+k_list, base-installer will
  soon begin installing this onto machines that can use it.
  (To regain some space, libc6-amd64 will soon stop being standard priority,
  and drop off.)
* On sparc, include libc6-sparcv9 and libc6-sparcv9b, which base-installer
  will also pull in.

[ Colin Watson ]
* Cope with cdrom64 -> cdrom renaming for powerpc64 subarchitecture.

[ Sven Luther ]
* [powerpc] Added a rescue option to yaboot.conf as well as the pegasos boot
  script.

[ Colin Watson ]
* Remove obsolete devfs=mount,dall and init=/linuxrc options from
  yaboot.conf and pegasos boot script.
* Remove init=/linuxrc from hppa.

[ Otavio Salvador ]
* Applied patches that are being in use at O.S. Systems and that are
  useful to others:
  - allow to use different name for final iso image;
  - allow to set the script to be used in debootstrap to check if all
    base need package are present.

[ Frans Pop ]
* Introduce new environment variable NOSOURCE that allows to build CD images
  using a local mirror that does not contain source files. This new variable
  obsoletes setting IMAGETARGET, though that is still supported for
  backwards compatibility. Closes: #320205.

[ Steve McIntyre ]
* Update the suggested DVD size in CONF.sh to a saner number
* Re-sync CONF.sh over debian/CONF.sh
* Minor changes to README.html.in and generation of README.html:
  cope with unofficial, official beta and official release CDs
  better. Let's not repeat the sarge mistake. Closes: #312604
* Trivial updates to update-cd

[ Frans Pop ]
* Update base-etch and popularity-contest-etch in tasks.
* Update task-full-etch and task-essential-etch in tasks.

[ Steve McIntyre ]
* Update Dependencies to allow installation/use on GNU/kFreeBSD. Thanks
  to Petr Salinger for the patch. Closes: #378977
* Fix KERNEL_PARAM breakage. Thanks to Vagrant Cascadian for the patch,
  closes: #387255
* Removed reference to obsolete "mirrorcheck" target in the README
  file. Closes: #384064.
* s/sarge/etch/ and s/3.1/3.2/ in CONF.sh
* Last upload ready for the etch release (hopefully)

Author: Steve McIntyre
Revision Date: 2006-03-06 23:30:27 UTC

[ Bdale Garbee ]
* update lists of udebs for hppa to reflect kernel name changes, etc

[ Richard Hirst ]
* Fix ramdisk_size value for hppa for both etch and sarge

[ Frans Pop ]
* Update for Sparc:
  - sparc64: switch to 2.6.12 kernel; make CD multiboot 2.6 and 2.4,
    using 2.6.12 by default
  - sparc32: drop 2.6 kernel support as it has no 2.6.12 kernel
  - restructure silo.conf with proper support for install, expert and
    rescue boot options

[ Joey Hess ]
* Remove contrib/testingcds. For now the entire setup directory used to
  build Debian CDs is in svn at svn+ssh://svn.debian.org/svn/debian-cd/setup
* Point sid symlinks at etch.
* Now build etch CDs by default.
* Remove DH_CODENAME unset from CONF.sh, to allow it to be passed in
  via the environemtn. Closes: #326814
* Remove Debian_sid task, which dates from before woody and should not be
  used.
* Don't hardcode the path to debootstrap. And assume there is a debootstrap
  available, as it is a dependency.
* Since debootstrap is in sbin, add sbin to PATH.
* Remove other random hadcoded paths to programs in bin.
* generate_di+k_list: Deal with kernel package name change. All arches
  with 2.6 kernels will now include only linux-image packages.
* generate_di+k_list: Add some mips and mipsel subarches that are new in
  etch or were missing before.
* generate_di+k_list: Use kernel-image-2.4-<subarch> and
  linux-image-2.4-<subarch> packages for as many architectures as we can,
  instead of enumerating the versions of the kernels to include. Much
  cleaner and more robust and will make d-i more robust as well.
* Update task.list with new etch (and some old sarge) tasks.
* Update task-full-etch and improve the generation recipe.
* Change debootstrap --print-debs calls to pass debootstrap a mirror to use
  and a temporary directory to work in, so it will avoid downloading the
  Packages files from its hardcoded mirror, and work on amd64 and other
  situations with a non-official Debian mirror. Neccessary since the new
  version of debootstrap has dependency resolution enabled by default.
* Don't chmod amiboot if it doesn't exist.

[ Sven Luther ]
* Fixed powerpc cd builds, added powerpc64 kernels to etch/sid, dropped
  2.6.8 and remaining 2.4.27 kernels, except the nubus/apus ones. Added IBM
  chrp boot files. (Closes: #328274)

[ Joey Hess ]
* Order task-essential-etch using task.list, and regen to match current
  tasksel.
* Add acpid to generate_di+k_list so it's on the netinst.
* Add more udebs to excludes trying to trim the netinst size down.
* Exclude cdebconf from CD1s to prevent both it and debconf being pulled in
  by | dependencies. cdebconf isn't usable right now and has a large
  dependency chain.
* Exclude inetutils-inetd and openbsd-inetd from CD1 for similar resons.

[ Colin Watson ]
* generate_di+k_list: Add hfsutils for powerpc; it's no longer in base but
  yaboot-installer needs it.

[ Steve McIntyre ]
* For full CD/DVD builds, check that we have an "extra" override
  containing task info. If not, use the sid override instead.

[ Joey Hess ]
* Add default UDEB_EXCLUDE files that differ for businesscard, netinst, and
  full CDs.
* Make the full CD have apt-mirror-setup in its udeb_exclude file, to avoid
  that component being installed to satisfy apt-setup's dependency on it (I
  hope), so that the user is not unncessarily asked for a mirror during a
  full CD install, but is still asked for one during installs from the
  smaller CDs.
* Add initramfs-tools to generate_d-i+k_list

[ Steve McIntyre ]
* Merged in MAJOR changes for jigdo creation - the long-separated JTE
  patch.
* Split out the actual ISO/jigdo creation code from the Makefile into
  tools/make_image

[ Joey Hess ]
* Explicitly list ppp and pppoeconf in generate_d-i+k_list, since they are
  not installed by debootstrap and we do want them on netinst CDs.

[ Steve McIntyre ]
* Split out the code that copies debs into the temporary trees and
  creates Packages files from the Makefile into tools/add_debs
* Split out the code that copies sources into the temporary trees and
  creates Sources files from the Makefile into tools/add_source_packages

* MAJOR CHANGE: Stop using apt-ftparchive to generate the Packages
  files on each CD/DVD; instead grab the details for each package
  directly from the Packages file in the archive. MUCH MUCH faster,
  and uses less code too. Affected scripts:

  + tools/scanpackages now just generates Release files. argv[1]
    used to be "scan" or "install", but no longer used

  + tools/add_debs slightly simplified - old code removed

  + tools/add_packages now dumps out Packages file fragments as each
    .deb and .udeb is copied into the temporary trees

  + WARNING: Any uses of the "before-scanpackages" hook may now
    break - shout if you're affected.

* Fix the new Packages file generation to cope with LOCAL packages
  too. A simple change to add checking for /local/ ; hopefully it
  will do the trick.

* Use "|" rather than "/" as a sed separator in the etch boot-amd64
  and boot-i386 scripts. Closes: #342344

* Add the ppptp-linux package to CD#1. Quick hack adds this from the
  Makefile for now; FIXME later... Closes: #255367

* Minor change to correct the README - BASEDIR var means we don't
  have to cd to /usr/share/debian-cd/ any more. Closes: #280191

[ Joey Hess ]
* Update base-etch with current debootstrap, and also update the recipe to
  create it due to changes in debootstrap.
* Remove exim4 from the netinst CDs by adding further insane cruft to the
  insane cruft already in the Makefile. (debootstrap no longer installs an
  MTA, so this should save some useful space on the netinsts)
* Remove lvm10 from generate_di+k_list, d-i uses lvm2 now.
* Audited all the apt-install commands in d-i, and added these packages
  to generate_di+k_list: pcmciautils, dosfsutils (barely needed),
  udev, installation-report, palo, elilo, sibyl, sibyl, colo, powerpc-utils,
  silo, vmelilo.
  Some of the bootloaders were alredy included via debootstrap, but as they
  are being removed from there, it's better to add them explicitly here.
* Remove iso-codes from netinst, not used.
* Drop floppies from i386 netinst and businesscard; this will make the
  netinst small enough to fit on 128 mb usb keychains again.
* Deal with 386 -> 486 name change in kernel images.
* Exclude ttf-cjk-compact-udeb.

[ Steve McIntyre ]
* Cope with mipsel boot images moving location. Closes: #349563.
* Make sure that all the scripts use Packages.gz rather than Packages
  when looking up metadata in the archive - Packages is deprecated.
* Cope better with badly-formatted stanzas in Sources.gz

[ Joey Hess ]
* Exclude reiser4progs udebs from CD, since there is no reiser4 in the
  Debian kernel.
* Exclude libreiserfs0.3-udeb from CD, no longer used by parted.

[ Steve McIntyre ]
* Add an initial copy of boot-amd64.calc for etch

[ Frans Pop ]
* For etch, pick up the installation guide from the appropriate
  package in the archive rather than from the d-i area.
* Add missing envvar checks in tools/generate_di*_list scripts.
* arm: risc* flavours are no longer built. Closes: #351818.
* Martin Michlmayr has temporarily taken over daily d-i builds for mips
  from Thiemo Seufer.
* Kyle McMartin is now taking care of HPPA daily builds.

[ Joey Hess ]
* Switch alpha to 2.6 kernels.
* Add linux-image-2.6-footbridge and linux-image-2.6-s3c2410
  arm kernels as d-i now uses these.

[ Steve McIntyre ]
* Fix the environment variable checks in tools/generate_di+k_list.
* Update the boot-sparc scripts to improve the algorithm for finding
  the right version of silo to use - grab the filename from the
  appropriate Packages file rather than looking in the silo
  directory in the pool.

[ Joey Hess ]
* generate_di+k_list: Switch initamfs generator to per-arch,
  based on what base-installer installs:
  - initramfs-tools on i386, amd64, alpha, powerpc, arm
  - yaird on hppa, ia64, mips, mipsel, sparc, m68k

[ Sven Luther ]
* Added icon to powerpc/chrp bootinfo.txt, which will allow booting on IBM
  RS6K and pSeries. Closes: #352672

[ Steve McIntyre ]
* Mipsel boot images haven't actually moved yet in etch. Cope with this
  - fall back to the old location if the new one isn't there.

[ Frans Pop ]
* generate_di+k_list:
  - switch to initramfs-tools by default for hppa
  - include openssh-server; is installed when network-console is used
  - add libsysfs1; is not included otherwise because the udeb provides it

* Raphael Hertzog
  - Patch from Sven Luther for pegasos support already applied
    by Steve McIntyre. Closes: #311925
* Steve McIntyre
  - Added sed hack to make sarge appear as "stable" in the Release
    files we generate on the CDs (for the sarge release). Removed the
    hack sgain before the 2.2.23 package build.
  - Download the release notes and try to fit them onto
    CD#1. Updated sarge's README.html.in to point to them
  - Updated tools/add-bin-doc to stop warnings on this.
  - Added patch from Sven Luther to add a forth script to make
   ppc/pegasos easier to boot. Closes: #311925

    on i386 and amd64). Closes: #249386
  - Made list2cds more verbose
  - Added tools/sarge/upgrade-hppa.sh and tools/sarge/upgrade-sparc.sh
    to install the upgrade-kernel bits on CD#1
  - Added tools/dedicated_source: simple script used to add extra
    source packages onto _binary_ CDs. Used for the amd64 sarge release
    so far.
  - Added patch from Frans Pop to use $CODENAME for exclusions.
    Closes: #320206
  - We no longer need to use md5sum.textutils, as dpkg no longer ships a
    non-64-clean version. We can now just use plain "md5sum".
    Closes: #313613
* Joey Hess
  - Synced up all sarge changes to etch.
  - Use dpkg --print-architecture instead of now-deprecated
    --print-installation-architecture
  - Completed access cd-drivers transition.
  - d-i renamed syslinux.txt to boot.txt, us new name instead of
    renaming file from d-i.
  - Use isolinux config files included in the d-i debian-cd_info tarball
    so it does not need to be maintained in both places.
  - Repository moved to svn, update docs to reflect move.
  - Add hw-detect-full to exclude list for etch, renamed to disk-detect.
  - Switch mipsel to use my builds.
  - Applied s390 boot support patch by Frans Pop. Closes: #318021
  - partman udeb renamed to partman-base
* Stephen R. Marenka
  - Changed m68k boot for etch to handle etch changes in d-i.

Author: Steve McIntyre
Revision Date: 2005-06-01 13:04:33 UTC

* Steve McIntyre
  - Prepared YA "last before sarge" debian-cd release
  - Urgency "Critical" to make sure we make it in...
* Joey Hess
  - Add post-sarge udebs rescue-check, initrd-preseed, and preseed-common
    to the udeb exclude list since these will be/are inluded on sid initrds.
  - Add etch directories; point sid symlinks to them.
  - Add rescue stanzas to etch isolinux.cfg. Rescue mode is supported in
    post-sarge d-i images only.
  - Add support for f4.txt that is for systems with the 2.6 kernel.
  - Exclude new mouse-modules udebs from CDs until something in d-i uses
    them.
  - debian-installer task files renamed to include distro name and branched
    for etch.
* Steve McIntyre
  - Make woody's post-boot-mipsel script cope with extra fields in the
    output of sarge's isoinfo
  - Add Suggests: on netpbm and syslinux. Closes: #301345
  - Count the total number of binary and source discs better; sarge can
    have more than 9 CDs, so ?.packages doesn't cut it any more.
  - Don't copy the whole d-i cdrom directory onto CD1 for amd64.
    Closes: #306926
  - Don't copy boot.img.gz onto amd64 CD1.
  - Added Manty's testingcds script as an example of debian-cd use
  - Updated sarge task lists to match the latest sarge CD build
* Santiago Garcia
  - Allow the usage of a local mirror of the daily d-i builds to be used
    for sid_d-i builds, this is done by setting DI_WWW_HOME=default and
    DI_DIR=/path/to/the/mirror
  - Add autorun capabilities to i386 cds so that instead of getting the
    "what do you want Windows to do" question under XP, we get the html
    README started. Closes: #185238
  - Make the jigdos use the same naming scheme as the isos, as per my
    proposal to the list.
  - Add some amd64 patches from Goswin: Fixed boot-amd64 and added
    some packages missing on netinsts.
  - Port to etch previous changes I commited for sarge.

Author: Steve McIntyre
Revision Date: 2004-10-22 21:12:15 UTC

* Joey Hess
  - Remove bogus init=/linuxrc, we have not had a linuxrc in d-i for a long
    time and I don't know how that managed to work.
  - Update path to ia64 cdrom/boot.img.
  - Tweaked exclude-udebs-i386, removing fat-modules as it's not available
    otherwise if booting from floppy, and removing excludes of partconf,
    partitioner, and discover2-data-udeb, which are not in unstable for i386
    any longer.
  - Updated exclude-udebs to match the current CD initrd package list.
  - Access floppy reorg.
  - Sparc daily builds moved to joshk's builds.
  - Update tasks for 2.4.27 and 2.6.8 kernels.
  - Remove access floppies to save space on netinsts. Also remove
    net-drivers floppy and some other things not really needed for install
    from CD.
  - Add 2.6 kernels to ia64 netinst CDs (and incidentially, update to
    2.4.27).
  - Drop i386 floppies that have gone away in d-i.
  - Put 2.4, not 2.6 kernels on hppa cd.
* Stephen R. Marenka

  - New variable SPLASHPNG pointing to replacement splash image on i386.
* Kenshi Muto
  - Fix cp routine around EXTRA_DISK_IMAGES in tools/boot/sarge/boot-i386
    (add space to cp arguments)
  - Add floppy/asian-root.img, floppy/mideast-root.img and
    floppy/cyrillic-root.img to EXTRA_DISK_IMAGES (but may it be treated
    as DISK_IMAGES?)
  - Fix typo in test evaluation. (tools/boot/sarge/boot-i386)
  - Add localization-config.
* Colin Watson
  - Add "--" end of installer kernel params markers to yaboot.conf.
  - Drop compatibility with old powerpc 2.4/2.6 d-i image layout, since
    the changed image layout reached sarge a while ago.
  - Remove 2.4 images from power3 and power4; those few who want them can
    netboot.
  - Remove 2.6 PReP images from power3 and power4, as no such machines
    exist.
  - Hardlink powerpc and powerpc/minimal vmlinux files together, since
    they're identical.
  - Remove powerpc-small-pmac kernel from the netinst. base-installer
    hasn't installed it since April, and according to Sven it's only
    useful for building floppies.
* Santiago Garcia
  - Try to fix powerpc DVD builds via -hfs-parms MAX_XTCSIZE.

  - Another upload before sarge.

Author: Raphaël Hertzog
Revision Date: 2003-08-20 20:17:06 UTC

* Removed debian/conffiles (useless with debhelper 4).
* Added aptitude on netinst CD (but not on businesscard CD).
  Closes: #220125, #219986
  It is already on CD1 of a normal CD set.
* Kenshi Muto
  - Add jfbterm, unifont into forcd1, d-i+kernel (second stage of
    debian-installer needs them).
  - Add console-cyrillic, console-terminus, hotplug into forcd1,
    d-i+kernel.
* Joey Hess
  - Add "expert" mode to isolinux.cfg for sarge.
  - Remove pump-udeb from all udeb_includes; netcfg depends on and
    uses dhcp-client-udeb.
  - Add appropriate kernel-pcmcia-modules package to
    debian-installer+kernel task for i386.
  - Update the yaboot boot.msg to match the one in d-i cvs.
  - Update the yaboot.conf to add expert and expert-safe boot modes.
  - Link the d-i INSTALLATION-HOWTO into doc/, if it exists.
  - Add my exclude_udebs lists, for general and i386, and modify
    generate_di_list to not include udebs from those lists onto the
    cdrom, to save space on the netinst cds. Closes: #215469
  - Use the d-i docs in sid instead of the woody boot floppies docs.
  - Add pcmcia-cs-udeb to sarge's i386_netinst_udeb_include, to support
    pcmcia installs.
  - Remove console-keymaps from all udeb_includes; they are included
    on the cdrom initrds.
  - Switch from netcfg-static/dhcp to just netcfg.
  - Split udeb_includes for businesscard and netinst; netinst does not
    need choose-mirror, while businesscard does.
  - Add wireless-tool-udeb to udeb_include for i386 and powerpc netinst
    and businesscard images.
  - Add pcmcia-cs onto the generate-di+k_list, now that is is not
    autoinstalled by debootstrap.
  - Document vga=771 boot option for laptops with screen problems.
  - Add the debian-edu udebs to the exclude list for netinst CDs, and
    remove the deleted di-utils-devicefiles.
  - Update boot/sarge/boot-i386 to use the new d-i image names.
  - Use d-i boot screens from the debian-cd_info.tar.gz.
    Closes: #220612, #221186
  - Remove the netboot initrd from netinst CDs, since d-i builds a mini-iso
    with this initrd on it, and since the d-i help screen does not mention
    the net type.
  - Add xfsprogs and reiserfsprogs to generate_di+k_list.
  - Add lilo as well; it's not autoinstalled by debootstrap, but
    lilo-installer still uses it.
  - Increase the i386 isolinux ramdisk size to 10 mb; it's grown due to
    translatons and all the scsi drivers.
  - Drop lowmemcheck from the CD; it is in the initrd.
  - Add wireless-tools to generate_d-i+k_list
  - Remove the old partitioner from the CD for i386. (This should also be
    done for other arches for which it is not default)
  - Include all the powerpc kernels that d-i's base-installer currently
    could try to install on the CD.
  - Try to include some sparc kernels on the CD; it's probably better than
    including none..
  - Revamped the README.html, removing the old manual apt setup
    instructions, various references to woody, fixing the link to the LDP
    home page, dropping reference to the basically dead non-us section,
    removing confusing references to non-free being on the CD, dropping
    references to dselect, etc.
  - Fix layout of README.txt, adding missing <p>'s after headings.
  - Drop README.mirrors and README.non-US from the CDs.
* Steve Langasek
  - Add fdisk-udeb to the list of needed debs for alpha
  - Use /dev/ram as the root device for aboot (alpha)
* Petter Reinholdtsen
  - Updated tasks/README with new location of popularity-contest results.
  - Regenereated tasks/popularity-contest-sarge based on the current
    data.
  - Avoid acorn-fdisk, cfdisk-utf8 and lots of kernels on the first CD.
    It should be enough with one kernel package on the first CD.
  - Make generated debian-installer list easier to read by adding
    arch info at the end of an #ifdef block.
* Santiago Garcia
  - Add DI_CODENAME variable make it posible to build cds with a special
    debian-installer version.
  - Make Makefile remove dedication files except for current version.
  - Update debian-installer.* tasks
  - Add hppa kernels to generate_di+k_list
  - Add sarge boot scripts for hppa
