----- Low Urgency Packages --------------
alien - Install Red Hat and Slackware Packages with dpkg.
alien 6.02 -> 6.02hamm1 into dists/hamm/main/binary-all/admin
alien (6.02hamm1) frozen; urgency=low
* Fixed -k switch (#22168).
* Release only for hamm, becuase alien has already branched for slink.
bug - Bug Reporting Tool interfacing with the Bug Tracking System
bug 3.1.4 -> 3.1.5 into dists/hamm/main/binary-all/utils
bug 3.1.4 -> 3.1.5 into dists/slink/main/binary-all/utils

debhelper (0.79hamm1) frozen; urgency=low
* Upload to hamm only becuase debhelper has branched for slink.
* dh_strip: strip .comment and .note, not comment and note, when stripping
elf binaries. This makes for smaller output files. This has always been

fakeroot 0.0-13 into dists/slink/main/binary-sparc/devel
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.
* Added a "umask 022" to the test/tartest script, as otherwise it will only
work if whoever compiles fakeroot happens to have a umaks of 022.

jadetex 0.61-1.1 into dists/slink/main/binary-all/tex
jadetex (0.61-1.1) frozen unstable; urgency=low
* Non-maintainer release
* debian/control: starting with tetex-extra 0.9-5, hyperref is obsolete,
so we shouldn't depend on both. Used the rather complex depends
provided by Anthony Fok <foka@debian.org> (closes Bug#21110,
Bug#21885, Bug#22455)
* debian/postinst: rather than hardcode the path of tempfile, use
'command -v' to check for it (it was testing for /usr/bin/tempfile,
which seems to be in /bin now)

actually the right thing to do, but the way it was was definately
wrong)

lg-issue27 1-1 -> 2-1 into dists/hamm/main/binary-all/doc
lg-issue27 1-1 -> 2-1 into dists/slink/main/binary-all/doc

lintian - Debian package checker
lintian 0.4.3 -> 0.4.4 into dists/slink/main/binary-all/devel
lintian (0.4.4) unstable; urgency=low
* (checks/scripts) Suppress script-not-executable warnings for files
in /usr/lib that match *.pm. These are perl modules, which often
have a #!/usr/bin/perl line at the top but are not intended to be
executed directly.
* (info/override) Removed now-suppressed warnings from the overrides file.
* (info/override) Added more overrides. (closes #21028).
* (checks/scripts) At Oliver Elphick's suggestion, do not emit
*-script-but-no-*-dep tags or csh-considered-harmful tags for
scripts that are not executable. (These already produce a
script-not-executable warning).
* (checks/binaries) At Yann Dirson's suggestion, added a tag for
stripped binaries that still have the .comment and .note sections.
This tag is info-level, thus not normally displayed.
dh_strip and install -s have been patched to strip these sections,
but most of the distribution has not been recompiled with the patched
versions.
* (checks/binaries.desc) Described the new tag.
(closes #22495).
* (man/lintian.1) Documented the options that were added in lintian 0.4.3.
* (checks/fields) Produce informational tags no-section-field and
no-priority-field. These were removed in a previous version, because
nearly all packages do not pass -isp to dpkg-gencontrol when building
packages, but the new handling of info-level tags makes them useful again.

dpkg itself about overwrite problems, and it fixes the "doubling"
problems that have puzzeled me for months. Many thinks to Andy Dougherty
<doughera@lafcol.lafayette.edu> who helped me finally reproduce this
problem. Thanks also to the literally dozens of you who experienced the

* Fixed preinst to not give an error on clean install.
