27. By Guillem Jover <email address hidden> on 2014-10-28

Do not bother setting different Priority field values on non-Linux ports
anymore, as the Debian archive does not currently support overrides that
differ per port anyway. This fixes a build failure due to dpkg-genchanges
not liking the debian/files and debian/control files disagreeing.

26. By Guillem Jover <email address hidden> on 2014-10-28

* Fix typo in inetutils_priority variable name to avoid passing an empty
  value to dpkg-gencontrol, which makes it error out on non-Linux systems.
* Switch debian/copyright to machine-readable format 1.0.
* Switch URLs in docs and code comments from http:// to https:// if the
  latter is available.

25. By Guillem Jover <email address hidden> on 2014-10-25

* New upstream snapshot.
  - Fix invalid priority values in syslogd. CVE-2014-3634
* Switch from «debian/upstream-signing-key.pgp» to
  «debian/upstream/signing-key.asc», and export it using pgp-clean
  (signing-party) to get rid of useless bloat.
* Do not set source compression to xz, it's now the default.
* Improve debian/tarball.sh to handle latest snapshots.
* Now using Standards-Version 3.9.6 (no changes needed).
* Add template man pages from help2man:
  - local/man/ifconfig.1
  - local/man/ping6.1
  - local/man/traceroute.1

24. By Guillem Jover <email address hidden> on 2014-01-16

* New upstream release.
* Fix typos in local man pages.
* Escape hyphens in local man pages.
* Add tar.xz as an alternative upstream extension in the watch file.

  from autotools-dev to update the config.sub and config.guess files.

23. By Guillem Jover <email address hidden> on 2013-12-22

* New upstream snapshot.

  (including the comment).

* Use tcpd in inetd entries for talkd and telnetd. (Closes: #412891)

* Switch to debhelper compatibility level 9.
* Add signature checking support to debian/watch, and ship upstream signing
  keys in debian/upstream-signing-key.pgp.
* Use xz for source Debian packaging.
* Use «which» instead of hard-coding update-inetd pathnames.
* Disable «set -e» in init scripts, just before the action case block.
* Update debian/copyright information with new years and switch to GFDL-1.3.
* Remove first packaging information from debian/copyright.
