[ Petter Reinholdtsen ]
* Migrate the responsibility for enabling or disabling dependency
  based boot sequencing from the insserv package to the sysv-rc
  package. Rewrite package description to reflect this (Closes:
  #475478, #511753, #538959). Keep a dummy update-bootsystem-insserv
  script to avoid having to conflict with sysv-rc version 2.87dsf-2.
  Keep update-rc.d-insserv to make it impossible for the update-rc.d
  diversion to be a dangling link during upgrades. Make it a copy
  of update-rc.d from the new sysv-rc version to make sure both
  behave the same way. update-rc.d-insserv should be removed in
  Squeeze+1. update-bootsystem-insserv could be removed when
  sysv-rc 2.87dsf-2 has been gone from unstable for 3 months.
* Drop dependencies on sysv-rc, initscripts and sysvinit-utils, and
  leave it for sysv-rc to pull in the packages needed for dependency
  based boot sequencing to work properly.
* Update README to reflect that dependency based boot sequencing is
  now the default in Debian. Drop reference to obsolete CONCURRENCY
  setting (Closes: #540447).
* Add new test case test_override_remove trying to reproduce bug #540866.
  No luck so far.
* Add new test case test_insserv_virt_loop to reproduce a bug
  reported by Raphael Geissert, where an incorrect insserv.conf will
  make insserv hang forever. Add new patch 94_v1_12_2.patch from
  upstream to fix it (Closes: #541613).
* Correct test test_early_all to fail if $all do not work with stop
  sequences. Add new patch 95_stop_all.patch from upstream to fix
  it (Closes: #542043).
* Change the definition of $syslog to include rsyslog, sysklogd,
  dsyslog, inetutils-syslogd and syslog-ng, to include all syslog
  implmenetations in the archive. Dropped the syslog provide from
  the list, as it should not be used.
* Update to Standards-Version 3.8.3, no changes required.
* Add lintian override for the transitient update-bootsystem-insserv
  binary missing a manual page.
* Add new test test_local_virtual to verify that local virtual
  facilities work properly.

* Add new patch 20_install_perms_fixup.patch to install binary and
  conffile with correct permissions.
* Add new patch 21_tests_suite_new_functions.patch to add a couple
  of new test suite functions to upstream test suite.
* Make sure update-rc.d compares command line parameters for start/stop
  runlevel configuration with the Default-Start and Default-Stop values in
  LSB info comment of script and warns if there are differences.
