for. Ubuntu: #36416.

* Disable support for the ppc64 architecture: the patch breaks the
  powerpc support and does not work on ppc64 any more anyway.
  (closes: #329459) [Jérôme Marant]
  - debian/patches/00list: disable arch-ppc64 patch.
  - debian/patches/autofiles.dpatch: regenerated.

* New upstream release. (closes: #294313) [Jérôme Marant]
  - debian/patches/movemail-pop-fmt-vulnerability.dpatch: removed since
  it has been applied upstream.

* Apply patch from Romain Francoise <email address hidden> making PCL-CVS
  compliant with recent versions of CVS. (closes: #291221) [Jérôme Marant]
  - debian/patches/pcl-cvs-format.dpatch: new file.
  - debian/00list: updated.
  - debian/control: tightened dependency on dpatch (>= 2.0.9).

* Add MIME type to desktop file. (closes: #296618) [Jérôme Marant]
  - debian/emacs.desktop: added MimeType entry.

* Apply patch supporting the AMD64 architecture. This is a slightly
  modified patch derived from the Emacs CVS mainline. Thanks to
  Goswin von Brederlow <email address hidden> and
  amd64 porters. (closes: #248796) [Jérôme Marant]
  - debian/patches/arch-amd64.patch: new file.
  - debian/00list: updated.

* Hard code leim version in copyright.in for now. with 21.4a the emacs
  tar.gz name changed, but the leim archive name didn't. [rlb]
  - debian/copyright.in
  - debian/copyright

* Remove prebuild target from debian/rules. Instead, just issue
  instructions to the user. [rlb]
  - debian/rules

* Fix invocation of wc -l when counting fns-*.el files. [rlb]
  - debian/rules

* Use dpatch for the autotool related diff rather than generating and
  applying a diff manually. What was the debian/autofiles.diff is now
  handled via debian/patches/autofiles.dpatch. Also, we no longer try
  to automatically generate the diff when needed. Instead, the diff
  must be generated manually via "debian/rules autofiles-sync".

  The earlier approach was broken because dpatch files that
  autofiles.diff depended on could end up later in the Debian diff (and
  hence have newer timestamps). This would cause an unexpected run of
  aclocal, etc. and break the buildds. If we ever want to re-automate
  generation of the autofiles diff, we'll need to use dpatch md5 sigs
  (or similar) rather than timestamps. (closes: #297796) [rlb]
  - debian/autofiles.diff: removed
  - debian/patches/00list: added autofiles
  - debian/patches/autofiles.dpatch: new
  - debian/rules: updated
