Changes: boot-floppies (3.0.18) unstable; urgency=high
.
* we are still building against unstable since there some things there
that we need and the build doesn't seem to work too well using
packages from woody
.
* this version introduces i18n for the following architectures:
arm
i386 (for the flavors compact, idepci, reiserfs and udma100-ext3,
which have kernel framebuffer support)
powerpc
.
Since we can't include all the languages we support, we had to define
a smaller list of supported languages by default:
en pt de pl fr es ja sv it hu
Folks building their own sets can change this list in the top-level
'config' file; our choices here were based on the linux users per
country data at http://counter.li.org/reports/short.php?orderby=users#table
closes: #80942
.
* updates to kernels we use:
alpha uses 2.2.20 kernel images
sparc moved to 2.2.20; sun4u moved to 2.4.16
i386 moved to 2.2.20
(powerpc still at 2.2.19 because pcmcia-modules-2.2.20-pmac not available)
mipsel moved to 2.4.16
.
* David Kimdon
- report failure if dhclient cannot configure the interface,
closes: #109455
- more Danish documentation and messages thanks to
Claus Hindsgaul <claus_h@image.dk>
- lots and lots of Danish translations thanks to Morten Bo Johansen
and Claus Hindsgaul <claus_h@image.dk>
- fr.po update thanks to Martin Quinson <Martin.Quinson@ens-lyon.fr>
- remember gateway on the second pass through network configuration
- fix badly broken language chooser, closes: #120637
- on i18n builds put libnewt-utf8-0 on rootdisk in place of libnewt0
- fix i386 build rules so the modules on the rootdisk match the kernel
- i18n some strings that missed out
* Claus Hindsgaul
- fixups for MSG-NO and MSG-YES, new entities for defaults.ent, remove
orphaned dbootstrap.sgml form doc-check
- replace "ø" (unsupported in CP437) in Danish boot messages with
Swedish "ö", and remove da from the latin1 list in conf, since
it did not seem to work anyway
- Small spelling errors in english boot-new.sgml
- Danish documentation updates, thanks to Morten Bo Johansen
- updated Italian dbootstrap translation by Eugenia Franzoni
- modify 'make lint-docs' to verify all architectures
modify 'make lint-all-lang-docs' to verify all architectures
remove 'make lint-all-arch-all-lang-docs' (use lint-all-lang-docs)
- Update URLs to kernel-traffic and "Definition of Open Source"
- Initial Danish release-notes translation
- Update kernel versions in docs to match config
* Stefan Gybas
- use $ldlib in mklibs.py
- s390: use mklibs.py instead of mklibs.sh for library reduction
- include lsmod on initrd
- include ASCtoEBC and EBCtoASC in partbl_ibm.c, they are no longer in
<asm/vtoc.h>
- fixed detection of point-to-point interfaces
- s390: rewrote netsetup to be more modular, each network module can
now provide a module specific script in /usr/share/netsetup/ for
the chandev/module parameter configuration
- s390: install netsetup.sh as sbin/netsetup
- s390: don't modify etc/passwd on the initrd any longer
- s390: reduce initrd size as modules from a second initrd are now
symlinked instead of copied.
- s390: Always offer to format a newly attached DASD to avoid problems
if a previously used VM minidisk was resized
- s390: Make /sbin/fdisk a symlink to fdasd
- s390: Don't ask for bad block scan when formatting a DASD
- use $MIRRORS instead of $s390_url to download the s390 udeb kernel
- s390: Copy /root/.profile from s390-specials instead of changing
the one from base-files
- s390: use mini-inetd from the tcputils package instead of netkit-inetd
- s390: Use grep, ping and hostname from busybox >=1:0.60.2-2. This
version fixed a bug in grep's return code for binary files
- s390: Use ifconfig instead of ifup in netsetup.sh
- various other minor s390 fixes
* Adam Di Carlo
- fix a number of other i18n build issues
- 'make clean' and 'make distclean' act more consistently
- powerpc build was broken in last version, removing yaboot.conf which
is now in CVS and not downloaded at build time
- fix some root*.bin build dependancy problems
- i386 reiserfs and udma100-ext3 flavors were not being built with
revext set properly, thus they were not getting the proper pcmcia
modules and such, closing part of #118999
- i386 release.sh: split images-2.88 as its own tarball,
bf-common*.tar.gz was getting too large
- bogl-related stuff must be 0.1.8-1 or better
- in i136/i18n build, don't allow reduction libnewt*-pic, since i386
uses a mixed i18n and non-i18n build
- require newt 0.50.17-9 or better both for building and root.bin
- dbootstrap: when you mount an existing root partition with
/lib/modules on it, we adjust the rootdisk /lib/modules to it and
run depmod -a; this helps when you're restarting an aborted
installation
- dbootstrap: suppress message to testers if we're 'quiet'
- dbootstrap: clear the screen properly in i18n and non-i18n
closes: #124143
- normal doc build uses docs.stamp to prevent it from getting rebuilt
all the time in incremental builds
- dbootstrap: improved info messages when it first starts
- require debiandoc-sgml 1.1.53 or better, has locale for Catalan
- require newest busybox, closes: #124107
* Ethan Benson
- recent portability patch to mklibs.py requires python 2 so
Build-depend on python-dev (>= 2.1.1-4), python2.1-xml
- fix utilities/dbootstrap/langs/Makefile: PYTHON_VERSION=2.1
- mklibs.py now seems to work on powerpc, use it now
* Christian T. Steigies
- do not ship outdated m68k quickinstall docs
- m68k uses 2.2.20 kernel-images
* Carlos Barros: Spanish updates
* David Martinez: Spanish updates
* Andre Luis Lopes: Portuguese updates
* Gerhard Tonn

from initial netsetup
