18. By Colin Watson

[ Mark Hymers ]

  bootstrapping Ubuntu gutsy and later.

  Ubuntu-derived systems.

[ Joey Hess ]
* Recommend debian-archive-keyring, and if it is installed,
  default to checking gpg signatures of the Release file against it
  when bootstrapping sid, squeeze, wheezy, etch, and lenny.
  Closes: #560038
* Add --no-check-gpg option that can be used to disable release file
  verification. Closes: #624229
* Needs base-installer 1.117.
* Add a warning message if the keyring file is not available, and
  --no-check-gpg is not specified.
* Clear all global variables used for options, so that unclean
  environment doesn't break debootstrap. Closes: #621657
* Removed the --boot-floppies switch and mode. Assuming this has
  not been used in 10 years.
