Delivered-To: submit@bugs.debian.org
Package: update
Version: 2.11-1
Severity: normal
/sbin/update is not necessary with recent kernels. If it is known that
a machine will never run a 2.0 or 2.2.x (x < 8?) kernel, the sysadmin
may wish to remove update. Thus, the package should not be Essential.

Description:
update - daemon to periodically flush filesystem buffers.
Closes: 24891 45504 68985 80170 80774
Changes:
update (2.11-3) unstable; urgency=low
.
* New maintainer. (Closes: #80170)
* #80774 (man pages in wrong directory) was fixed in 2.11-2. update is
FHS compliant. (Closes: #80774)
* Permit running update as non-root user. (Closes: #24891)
* Updated copyright file to reflect current version's upstream URL.
(Closes: #45504)
* update is no longer essential. This should not pose a problem as the
default kernel for woody will be 2.2.x or 2.4.x, and other packages
in woody (like modutils) will be incompatible with 2.0 series kernels.
