emdebian-tools 1.1.3 released



Lots of changes in 1.1.3 so I'm posting the full set here.

More changes expected in 1.1.4, principally in improving the autobuilder
support and improving the init/login/networking implementation in the
root filesystem (dependent on other changes within the Emdebian patches
for busybox).

Note also that various bugs relating to Emdebian build processes are
being filed in the Debian BTS (pending the creation of a
buildd.emdebian.org pseudo-package). As with crossbuilt, these bugs are
user tagged under codehelp@debian.org.

http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/pkgreport.cgi?usertag=codehelp@debian.org

When filing bugs using the buildd.emdebian.org usertag, file against
'general' using the quiet@bugs.debian.org alias and post follow ups to
nnn-quiet@bugs.debian.org .

Changes: 
 emdebian-tools (1.1.3) unstable; urgency=low
 .
   * Interim Emdebian release
   * emrecent: continue to next package instead of dying at first error.
   * disable XC-Package-Type until a wider fix is in place
   * emdebuild: allow the warnings from ProgressBar after all -
     redirecting stderr to dev/null loses more important information
     during --build-dep
   * Improve emdebian lintian checks to find more incompatibilities
     between Debian and busybox
   * Update Japanese debconf template translation, thanks to Kobayashi
     Noritada
   * checks/emdebian : tell the user which maintainer script is affected
     by the error
   * emdebcheck: Add a hack to work around inability to decipher OR
     dependencies in Cache::Apt* so that debconf-2.0 | debconf does not
     produce constant debcheck errors.
   * pbuilder/empbuilderlib: Add support for dbus messagebus group and
     users
   * depend on new libcache-apt-perl support for cleaner emdebcheck
     reports
   * control: depend on updated version of libio-compress-zlib-perl to
     get benefit of #482056 being fixed
   * checks/emdebian: allow checks on maintainer scripts in arch:all
     packages as well as arch:any
   * pbuilder/empdebuild: allow update to proceed if umountproc gives bad
     exit value
   * em_newer: support finding the package name from the changelog
   * em_newer: add help and option support
   * embug: add support for buildd.emdebian.org usertag
   * checks: search for readlink -e, only -f is supported
   * emdebian.crossd|.gtk|.gpe: Drop conditional copying of build machine
     networking files, the fix needs to be via machine:variant support
   * empbuilderlib: always have the dbus user and group available
   * Add Catalan and Spanish translations of debconf templates - Hector
     Oron.
   * checks: add warning about unwanted linda overrides

   * Add support for creating a POT file for manpage translation
   * machine:variant - add support for adding kernels and modules to the
     root filesystem
   * emdebian.crossd, emdebian.gpe, emdebian.gtk: implement an init
     sequence with udev starting first
   * checks: remove RPATH warning - it is a problem for us too
   * Emdebian::Tools: generalise the extra-directory approach for
     nominated directories for wider supprot of unconventional
     subdirectories of debian/
   * pbuilder/emdebian.gtk, pbuilder/emdebian.gpe: Add /var/lib/X11
     support.
   * pbuilder/empbuilderlib: support the full Debian passwd and group set
   * setup symlinks after the targets of the symlinks have been unpacked
     pbuilder/emdebian.crossd pbuilder/emdebian.gpe pbuilder/emdebian.gtk

     pbuilder/emdebian.gpe pbuilder/emdebian.gtk : standardise suite script
     processes
   * pbuilder/empbuilderlib : Standardise on $BUILDPLACE instead of $TARGET
     which might not always be defined
   * Emdebian/Tools.pm : Add debhelper.in to extradirs
   * pbuilder/empbuilderlib pbuilder/emdebian.gpe : Add support for
     /etc/shadow - need to ensure that either passwd, group and shadow
     are used together or not at all.
   * control: add po4a to build-depends for manpage translation
     preparations
   * Lower apt-cross dependency in absence of apt-cross upload to Debian
