Dear release team,
Please accept the latest version of debian-cd for sarge, as uploaded
to unstable last night. The number of changes is quite large, but they
should be entirely risk-free:
==============
debian-cd (2.2.22) unstable; urgency=critical
* Steve McIntyre
- Prepared YA "last before sarge" debian-cd release
- Urgency "Critical" to make sure we make it in...
* Joey Hess
- Add post-sarge udebs rescue-check, initrd-preseed, and preseed-common
to the udeb exclude list since these will be/are inluded on sid initrds.
- Add etch directories; point sid symlinks to them.
- Add rescue stanzas to etch isolinux.cfg. Rescue mode is supported in
post-sarge d-i images only.
- Add support for f4.txt that is for systems with the 2.6 kernel.
- Exclude new mouse-modules udebs from CDs until something in d-i uses
them.
- debian-installer task files renamed to include distro name and branched
for etch.
* Steve McIntyre
- Make woody's post-boot-mipsel script cope with extra fields in the
output of sarge's isoinfo
- Add Suggests: on netpbm and syslinux. Closes: #301345
- Count the total number of binary and source discs better; sarge can
have more than 9 CDs, so ?.packages doesn't cut it any more.
- Don't copy the whole d-i cdrom directory onto CD1 for amd64.
Closes: #306926
- Don't copy boot.img.gz onto amd64 CD1.
- Added Manty's testingcds script as an example of debian-cd use
- Updated sarge task lists to match the latest sarge CD build
* Santiago Garcia
- Allow the usage of a local mirror of the daily d-i builds to be used
for sid_d-i builds, this is done by setting DI_WWW_HOME=default and
DI_DIR=/path/to/the/mirror
- Add autorun capabilities to i386 cds so that instead of getting the
"what do you want Windows to do" question under XP, we get the html
README started. Closes: #185238
- Make the jigdos use the same naming scheme as the isos, as per my
proposal to the list.
- Add some amd64 patches from Goswin: Fixed boot-amd64 and added
some packages missing on netinsts.
- Port to etch previous changes I commited for sarge.
==============
Except for adding the testingcds script as an example in the package
(as requested by jvw), all of the above changes have been in the
debian-cd CVS module for a while and tested in production over the
last few weeks.
The number of users of the debian-cd package is small (most developers
use the CVS version), and it's a binary-all package, which should both
help to mitigate any worries about breakage.
Thanks,
