Recent revisions

11. By Colin Watson

[ Julian Andres Klode ]
* Port the code to the new python-apt API and require at least
  version 0.7.93.2 of python-apt (closes: #571744).

[ Colin Watson ]
* Convert to source format 3.0 (native).
* Policy version 3.8.4: no changes required.

10. By Colin Watson

* Add 'make check' which runs pychecker if available, and make it pass.
* Change default distribution to lucid.
* Update kubuntu-meta example in germinate-update-metapackage(1) (add
  netbook; remove hppa; add armel).

9. By Colin Watson

[ Colin Watson ]
* Fix interpretation of architecture-specific regex seed entries where the
  regex contains a character class (which looks a bit like an architecture
  specification in the wrong light).

[ Loïc Minier ]
* Document --source-mirror option in germinate(1).

8. By Colin Watson

* Make germinate-update-metapackage write out a metapackage-map file,
  which is useful for later determining the set of seeds and metapackages
  to build.
* Add a debhelper addon, useful for building metapackages.

7. By Colin Watson

* Use people.canonical.com everywhere rather than people.ubuntu.com.
* Change default distribution to karmic.
* Convert to debhelper 7. I've taken some care to avoid use of the new
  override targets since Ubuntu hardy-jaunty don't have a debhelper that
  supports those.
* Policy version 3.8.2: no changes required.

6. By Colin Watson

Fix handling of archives that only contain uncompressed index files
(thanks to Chris Cheney for the report).

5. By Colin Watson

If germinate-update-metapackage fails, just print a message on stderr
and exit 1, rather than raising RuntimeError (LP: #323714).

4. By Colin Watson

Change default distribution to jaunty.

3. By Colin Watson

Consider whether there are any moves as well as additions or removals
when deciding whether to run dch.

2. By Colin Watson

When processing whole-source seed entries, only include real packages.
This avoids slews of warnings for binaries that only exist on other
architectures, and avoids mistakenly picking up virtual packages.
