25. By Colin Watson

When formatting swap partitions, save the old UUID in a file rather than
in a shell variable, as the latter approach eats NULs (LP: #336992).

24. By Colin Watson

Disable automounting unless partman/automount is preseeded to true. This
makes LP #106209 much less likely to occur, since future installations
are less likely to format a partition whose UUID we have in /etc/fstab.

23. By Colin Watson

* Add Choices-C entries for mount options.
* Default to mounting ext2 with relatime (LP: #160450).

22. By Evan

[ Colin Watson ]
* udev 117 merged all udev tools into a single binary called udevadm.
  Check for this and use it instead of udevinfo if available.

[ Evan Dandrea ]
* Special case loopmounted filesystems as it's safer to format the
  underlying file, not the device (LP: #177868).

21. By Evan

* Resynchronise with Debian. Remaining changes:
  - Default to mounting partitions with usefully-mountable filesystems on
    subdirectories of /media.
  - Add minimal support for NTFS partitions.
  - Mount FAT and NTFS filesystems at boot (fstab pass 1).
  - Mount FAT and NTFS with umask=007,gid=46 (static group plugdev).
  - When formatting over the top of an existing swap partition, preserve
    its UUID to avoid leaving systems that use UUIDs in /etc/fstab without
    swap.
  - init.d/auto_mountpoints: Use 'rm -f' rather than a more awkward
    test-then-remove construction.
  - Adjust Description to note that we provide NTFS support too.
  - If ntfs-3g is available, try to load the fuse module; if we can do
    that and the fuseblk filesystem is available, accept that as
    sufficient NTFS support.
  - Don't set the nls=utf8 mount option if using ntfs-3g.
  - mount.d/basic: Close mount's fd 3 so that it doesn't inherit a debconf
    file descriptor, to prevent log-output hanging when ntfs-3g is in use.
* debian/control: Add XS-Vcs-Bzr for the Ubuntu branch.

* Backport from trunk (LP: #126328):
  - Resolve symlinks before looking up devices in /proc/swaps.

* Set maintainer to <email address hidden>.
