Bug#200894: findutils: New upstream version 4.1.20



Package: findutils
Version: 4.1.7-2
Severity: wishlist

findutils' has got a new upstream maintainer and seems to be
semiactive. A new test version 4.1.20 has been released.

I've spent a little time working on it and have a preliminary diff on 
http://www.logic.univie.ac.at/~ametzler/debian/misc/

----------------------
 findutils (4.1.20-0.1) unstable; urgency=low
 .
   * New upstream 4.1.20 (only updated auto* system, no behavior change.)
   * Strip down debian-patch:
     - move contents of debian/Changelog to debian/changelog
     - weed out all the changes to .cvsignore.
     - the changes described in the diff to po/ChangeLog are included upstream
     - Some the changes in #123919 seem to be unneeded now (at least I do not
       get implicit declaration warnings.
     - fix for #67507 included upstream.
   * Install  ChangeLog.gz as ./usr/share/doc/findutils/changelog.gz instead of
     symlinking it. (ancient policy?)
   * don't set /usr/doc/ symlink.
   * update config.(sub|guess)
----------------------
The package is lintian-clean except for old standards version 3.5.2.0.

I am cc'ing the qa-list for further discussion.
