hw-detect 1.114ubuntu1 source package in Ubuntu

Changelog

hw-detect (1.114ubuntu1) xenial; urgency=medium

  * Resynchronise with Debian.  Remaining changes:
    - Add an 'archdetect-deb' package, containing /usr/bin/archdetect.  Add
      an archdetect(1) manual page.
    - Add support for activating fakeraid devices with mdadm.
    - disk-detect.sh: Do not check the kernel command line for any option
      to enable dmraid support. If functional dmraid arrays are found, the
      user will be asked if they wish to activate them.
    - 'dmraid -c -s' changed its output format; cope with both old and new.
    - Make dmraid logging a bit neater.
    - Offer iSCSI targets for preseeding if partman-iscsi is available and
      no disk devices are found.
    - disk-detect.sh: Use mpath[a-z] now rather than mpath[0-9] to identify
      multipath devices and thus know to install partman-multipath.
    - disk-detect.sh: run update-dev after installing multipath and sg3.
    - debian/control: Depends on multipath-udeb (>= 0.5.0), which introduces
      the multipath device naming changes above.
    - Remove dm-emc from the multipath modules, since it's gone since
      2.6.27.
    - Improve checks for dm-* drivers being present to avoid relying on them
      being built as modules.
    - Bump question to load driver injection disk from medium to high, and
      raise driver-injection-disk package priority to standard. Thus the
      udeb will be loaded by default, but before installing any debs from
      the OEMDRV a confirmation question will be asked (default true, can be
      pre-seeded)
    - Drop priorities of a couple of ethdetect questions to medium.
    - Exit zero if you continue all the way through ethdetect's errors about
      having no network interfaces.
    - Remove FireWire Ethernet support.

archdetect: Hardware architecture detector
archdetect-dbgsym: debug symbols for package archdetect
archdetect-deb: Hardware architecture detector

 This package provides the 'archdetect' tool, which displays the current
 machine architecture and subarchitecture. The architecture corresponds to
 that built into dpkg, and describes the CPU (and possibly kernel) types;
 the subarchitecture distinguishes machines with different boot arrangements
 that require special handling.
 .
 This package would be called 'archdetect', but a udeb of that name already
 existed for use in the installer.
