Quoting Cyril Brulebois (kibi@debian.org):
> What do you think?
I moved some staging changes that were "obviously" not wished for
wheezy in some jessie branches, in two packages:
- cdebconf-entropy ("Use dh-autoreconf to avoid huge diffs when the
autotools are updated")
- libdebian-installer ("Drop use of autotools-dev dh sequence.)
I did so by:
- create a jessie branch from master
- revert the unwished commit in master
- push my jessie branch to git.d.o
I uploaded a few other packages that had staging changes, mostly
because, imho, those changes were "safe" or wished enough (that of
course, is debatable):
- lowmem: "Make lowmem limit comments point at where the manual also
needs update."
--> mostly documentation update. Is certainly OK
- os-prober: "
* Deal with grub-probe exiting with non zero status on some
devices, which in turns can stuck update-grub
Closes: #680084
* Fix detection of Fedora and other distros that moved /lib into /usr
and left behind a symlink. Grub's filesystem code does not support
symlinks. Closes: #685159 Thanks Andreas Bombe for the patch.
--> seems wished for wheezy
- debootstrap:
* Better support use on Android by not hardcoding /bin/sh
in a test file that's created, and instead putting in the
actual path to sh. Closes: #694310 Thanks, Shawn Landden
-->probably not that important for wheezy but the patch seems trivial
We're now left for the following packages with staging changes:
- debian-installer-netboot-images:
* Amend previous changelog to note the change of default mirror for
the build towards http.debian.net.
--> trivial. I might upload just to get rid of it..:-)
- mklibs:
[ Cyril Brulebois ]
* Simplify autoreconfing:
- Add dh-autoreconf build-dep.
- Add “--with autoreconf” accordingly.
- Get rid of the “configure” target accordingly.
[ Colin Watson ]
* Depend on dpkg-dev for dpkg-architecture (LP: #977347).
--> no idea. Cyril probably has a better one
- partman-partitioning:
* Merge from Ubuntu:
- Support archdetect being anywhere on PATH.
--> seems safe to me. Need Cyril stance on it
- console-setup:
* keyboard-configuration.config: Add support for preseeding xkb-keymap.
Closes: Bug#696188.
-->seems safe to me, and wished. Need Cyril stance on it
- base-installer and yaboot-installer:
* Milan Kupcevic patches for better support of YDL PowerStation
-->sems safe to me, and wished. Need Cyril final stance on it
- s390-dasd:
* Replace XC-Package-Type by Package-Type in debian/control
-->trivial but this package needs a translation upload
-->anyway...however, I can't do it easily as it really need to be
-->built on a s390 machine and I'm too dumb for this
