* debian/postinst:
  - Revert the changes in 0.13ubuntu2 and use diversion of update-initramfs
    again. When not doing it, we have the unsolvable situation that some
    things (e. g. root on encrypted file system) fail with a static
    /target/dev/, and some other things (like configuration of libraw1394)
    fail with an udevish bind-mounted /target/dev.
  - Use a bind-mounted /target/dev for calling the final update-initramfs,
    so that scripts in the target system can resolve UUIDs. Also make /proc
    and /sys available.
  - Call udevtrigger, so that we get UUIDs for newly created and formatted
    partitions, too.
  - LP: #144390

16. By Colin Watson

update-initramfs now uses dpkg triggers, so stop diverting it.

* Resynchronise with Debian. Remaining changes:
  - Install language packs and language support packages.
  - Expand progress bar length to 1000 for better granularity.
  - Mark any pending update notifications as seen after installation.
    Requires update-notifier (>= 0.40.1) to take effect.
  - Move final sources.list into place before trying to install language
    packs.
  - Remove special popularity-contest handling; Ubuntu just includes it in
    standard.
  - Divert update-initramfs and call it just once at the end.

12. By Colin Watson

* Now that we're installing usplash and its theme from pkgsel rather than
  base-installer, it's worthwhile to divert update-initramfs and call it
  just once at the end.
* Use apt-get rather than aptitude to install language packs (closes:
  Malone #62712).

11. By Colin Watson

Use new tasksel --debconf-apt-from and --debconf-apt-to options to allow
it to present a progress bar for desktop.preinst.

10. By Colin Watson

* Resynchronise with Debian.
* Backport from trunk (closes: Malone #29033):
  - Add a facility to install a few extra packages in addition to tasks by
    preseeding pkgsel/include.
* Use tasksel (as in Debian) rather than aptitude to do most of the work.
  Instead of preseeding pkgsel/install-pattern, you should now preseed
  tasksel/first (for tasks) and/or pkgsel/include (for individual
  packages).
* Drop backward compatibility for base-config/* preseeding from Breezy.

9. By Colin Watson

Resynchronise with Debian.

8. By Colin Watson

* Update pkgsel/language-pack-patterns description to take account of
  language pack change in pkgsel 0.04ubuntu4.
* fc-cache is slow. Divert it away during installation, and run it just
  once at the end. Saves 2 minutes out of 14 for pkgsel in a stopwatch
  test here.
