13. By Henrique de Moraes Holschuh

* Non-maintainer upload.
* Add changelog entries for 1.17-13.2 and 1.17-13.1 (closes: #687835)
  Missing changelog entries wreak havok with the BTS version tracking,
  this is not simply a cosmetic fix.

12. By Henrique de Moraes Holschuh

* Non-maintainer upload.
* Replace microcode.ctl with a transitional package, to migrate
  systems to the new intel-microcode package
  + Change to empty native package, debhelper compat level 7
  + debian/copyright: update
  + Move to contrib/oldlibs, priority extra
  + Remove replaces of a package not seen in the last decade
  + Change description to that of a transitional package
  + Depend on intel-microcode (>> 1) which superseded installing
    microcode updates, and on iucode-tool, which superseded
    the processing of microcode directly downloaded from Intel
  + Conflict with intel-microcode (<< 1) to be able to remove
    /usr/share/misc/intel-microcode.dat which might have been
    installed either by microcode.ctl's update-intel-microcode
    script or by intel-microcode (<< 1).
  + Use dpkg-maintscript-helper to remove the initscript
  + Remove /usr/share/misc/intel-microcode.dat if still present when
    configuring, and regenerates the initramfs in that case. This
    avoids left-over cruft microcode in the initramfs for the case
    where update-intel-microcode was used, and we're being configured
    together with intel-microcode (>> 1)
* This upload effectively removes microcode.ctl from Debian. Close all
  open bugs against microcode.ctl:
  + closes: #282583, #500802, #563910, #571408, #593845, #597039, #608675
  + closes: #627261, #660121, #663360, #664492, #674667, #684104
