As usual, the following changes will make debconf templates more consistent
with other modules templates.
Detailed rationale:

description.

Description:
archdetect - Hardware architect detector (udeb)

Changes:

.
* Joey Hess
- Remove the bogus "false" from the end of the modprobe error message
display.
- Sort the list of modules for manual selection.
- Use register-module to register modules for ide and scsi CDROMS,
so they will be available for base-config.
- Use register-module to register any module parameters that are entered
by the user.
- Fix ethdetect to not write kernel module parameters to
/target/etc/modules; instead use register-module here too.
- Add a versioned dep on rootskel.
- Based on user reports, users are very confused to see the missing
modules dialog for stuff like ide-floppy, which is both unavailable
and not autodetected. So leave off non-autodetectable modules from the
missing modules message.
* Claus Hindsgaul
- Update da (Danish) translation.
* Konstantinos Margaritis
- Initial Greek translation (el.po)
* Christian Perrier/Chris Tillman
- Refined and standardized templates. Closes: #219469
* Safir Å eÄ?eroviÄ?
- Update Bosnian translation.
* Christian Perrier
- Update French translation.
* Miroslav Kure
- Update Czech translation.
* Jordi Mallach
- Update Catalan translation.
* Kenshi Muto
- Update Japanese translation (ja.po)
* Ilgiz Kalmetev
- Update Russian translation. Closes: #221648.
* André LuÃs Lopes
- Update pt_BR (Brazilian Portuguese) translation.
* Thiemo Seufer
- Add support for mips, mipsel to archdetect.
- Remove unused #includes.
- Unify code formatting.
- Add CFLAGS for warnings and space optimization.
