Changes: 
 emdebian-tools (1.5.2) unstable; urgency=low
 .
   * Interim Emdebian release
   * Get the archive keyring package from Lenny using pre-seeding
   * grip/emlist-tdebs.pl : add a convenience script to help TDeb
     maintenance.
   * pbuilder/embootstrap : Add the entire keyring, not just the first
     key.
   * pbuilder/emsecondstage : leave the keyring around - if the clock has
     not been set, the offsets confuse gnupg.
   * pbuilder/emrootfslib : isolate invoke-rc.d and update-rc.d changes
     from unpack_debootstrap so that Grip can have unchanged scripts.
   * pbuilder/em_multistrap : New script to make one debootstrap from
     multiple repositories.
   * debian/emdebian-archive-keyring.postrm debian/rules : Remove the
     second key after re-assessing the pre-seeding methods to obtain the
     archive keyring from Debian.
   * grip/grip-preseed.cfg : obtain the archive keyring directly from a
     Lenny mirror.
   * grip/grip-config/grip-tasks.desc : add a touchscreen task.
   * pbuilder/em_multistrap : Add new script to extend debootstrap to
     cope with multiple repositories using apt to reconcile dependencies.
     May migrate into a different package in time, does not support
     machine:variant.
   * buildd/emdepends : avoid undefined 'mkdir -p' and set verbose in apt
     bindings. Skip uninitialised variables
   * pbuilder/em_multistrap : add support for complete unpacking, ported
     from emsandbox, with options to remove the .debs and cache data.
     Disable broken native support.
   * grip/archive.php : Add a parser for the reprepro update logs for
     Grip, provides RSS feeds direct from the repository. Link to the RSS
     from logs.php

em_multistrap is one of the products of the TCL worksession but is very
new. In particular, although it could do native, native use has been
explicitly disabled because of various issues that don't actually need
a fix at this time in order for em_multistrap to do the original task.

More needs to be done before 1.6.0 can go into Debian, mainly to fix
some of the outstanding bugs.
