14. By Michael Vogt

 * Taken from debian 0.97-7: (Ubuntu: #38182)
   [ Kristian Edlund ]
   Added the feature of letting update-grub update the default entry when
   a new kernel is installed. Done partly by applying a patch from Thomas
   Braun <email address hidden>
 * fix grub-reboot (Ubuntu: #31915)

13. By Matthias Klose

Drop build dependency on ia32-libs-dev.

12. By Colin Watson

Build-depend on libc6-dev-i386, not libc6-i386-dev.

11. By Colin Watson

* Build-depend on libc6-i386-dev on amd64 in preference to ia32-libs-dev.
* Add I2O support (patch from i2o.shadowconnect.com; closes: Malone
  #15466, #22220).

10. By Michael Vogt

* debian/patches/ubuntu_update_grub.diff:
  - disabled again, caused too many trouble

9. By Michael Vogt

* debian/update-grub:
  - if the user has not specified his own splash-image, use the one from
    ubuntu
* debian/rules: use automake-1.9 instead of automake-1.8

8. By Tollef Fog Heen

Don't override UUID or LABEL statements from fstab, but leave it to
the initrd, initramfs or kernel to DTRT with them.

7. By Fabio Massimo Di Nitto

Modify update-grub to check if our root/boot is on a removable device
and take appropriate actions to write a proper menu.lst.
This happens only at install time. Further calls to update-grub will use
the default in menu.lst.

6. By Colin Watson

* Resynchronise with Debian.
* Drop Nathaniel McCallum's nonaltoptions patch, done differently in
  Debian (as defoptions); added migration code to deal with old Ubuntu
  menu.lst files.
* Drop Matthew Garrett's stage 2 drive fallback patch, since upstream has
  implemented a different solution which appears to address essentially
  the same problem.
* Generated debian/control once from debian/control.in using
  type-handling, but continue to avoid the build-dependency on
  type-handling; the generated debian/control is in the source package.
* Disable fix_amd64_compile.diff for now; it causes configure to fail with
  "GRUB requires a working absolute objcopy; upgrade your binutils".

5. By Matthias Klose

Build using gcc-3.4 -fno-strict-aliasing on all architectures.
