* d/p/fix-ftbfs-arm64.patch
  - Include asm/ptrace.h. A recent change to glibc removed asm/ptrace.h from
    user.h for AArch64. This meant that cross-native builds of gdbserver
    using trunk glibc broke because linux-aarch64-low.c because
    user_hwdebug_state couldn't be found.

* d/p/restore-run.1.patch: Temporary patch to fix sim FTBFS.
  Turns out that without sim/common/run.1, sim fails to build.
  This doesn't have any cover texts or invariant sections,
  so in this patch we simply add it back.
  (It turns out that sim doesn't support x86.)
* d/sanitize-gdb.sh: In future, only strip manpages from gdb/ subtree.
* d/NEWS: Add warning about impending switch to Python 3

    hurd-adjust-to-startup-with-shell-changes.patch
    hurd-make-MIG-output-parsing-more-robust.patch
  (Closes: #752574)

[ Samuel Bronson ]
* Ship /usr/lib/libinproctrace.so with gdbserver.
  This enables the "agent" features.
* d/copyright: correct a licensecheck error; add required license texts/blurbs
* d/gdb.install: Include gcore in gdb package (Closes: #752317).
  Thanks to Lorenzo Beretta for the report.

Last but not least,
* Use correct tarball, with non-free upstream manpages stripped.
  Restores DFSG-compliance.

[ Hector Oron ]
* Rename upstream tarball to not conflict with the one in archive.

[ Samuel Bronson ]
* Don't require Java stuff just to gather test results we don't look at.
* Disable babeltrace; it doesn't build everywhere.
  Thanks to Julien Cristau for the heads up.
* Go back to python2; it's causing people trouble and doko never
  actually explained the need.
  Thanks to Ben Longbons for the report and Jakub Wilk for corroborating it.
  (Closes: #748711, Reopens: #727003)

    * PR gdb/16303 (GDB 7.6.1 does not work with binutils 2.24 on MIPS16
      and microMIPS)
