boot-floppies (2.0.5) frozen unstable; urgency=high
* base system: added pppconfig and pkgsel

about the currently installed files. That reduces the number of base
diskettes back to 5 1.44MB ones or 6 1.2MB ones.
* base system: removed comerr2g, e2fslibsg and ss2g, provided by the
new e2fsprogs package. Installed libstdc++2.8 instead of libg++272.
* base system: removed obsolet /bin/perl -> /usr/bin/perl symlink.
* Makefile: export architecture, so it can be used by documentation/Makefile
* Added a README-tecra file (based on the old special/tecra/README).
* basedisk.sh: Display a warning if we are installing partial packages.
* debian/control: remove arch-dependent dependencies.
* debian/rules: Set the proper permissions under debian/tmp.
fixes: Bug#21155
* root disk: removed comerr2g and e2fslibsg, provided by the new
e2fsprogs package.

fakeroot (0.0-13) frozen unstable; urgency=low
* 2 Minor changes to allow fakeroot to compile with egcs.
However, as egcs is the only c++ compiler with debian, I think
it is essential (even to comply with the DFSG) that this is put in
frozen too.

jade (1.1-5) frozen unstable; urgency=low
* set SGML_SEARCH_PATH_DEFAULT to /usr/lib/sgml:/usr/local/lib/sgml (was
unset before, leading to wierd searching in /etc sometimes)
* set SGML_CATALOG_FILES_DEFAULT to
/usr/lib/sgml/catalog:/usr/local/lib/sgml/catalog
* rebuild with egcs-2.90.26 980308, remove -fno-implicit-templates,
which means Alpha platform should compile out of the box, linked
against libstdc++2.8 as well
* fixing dependancies: sp shouldn't depend on itself, sp-dev now
depends on sync'd version of sp, jade depends on sync'd version of sp;
I think tight coupling is there between jade and sp. I might loosen
it later.
* call ldconfig in sp's postinst, as stipulated by David Engel
* don't build SP tools with -fpic, you silly!
