Changelog
debian-installer (20141002) unstable; urgency=low
[ Samuel Thibault ]
* Add speech synthesis entries in alternate desktop boot menus.
* Add keyboard shortcut for Advanced options menu.
[ Ian Campbell ]
* Depend on mklibs >= 0.1.40 for ARM EABI fixes relating to the handling
of__aeabi_* symbols (Closes: #758581).
* Switch to installing Jessie by default on ARM64.
* Build netboot mini.iso on ARM64.
* Build cdrom flavour for ARM64.
[ Cyril Brulebois ]
* Deal with even more incompatible changes on the syslinux side by
adding a syslinux-utils build-dep (Closes: #751731), no thanks to its
maintainer as far as cooperation is concerned (See: #751724, #759189).
* Bump linux kernel version from 3.14-2 to 3.16-2.
* Drop code snippet meant to ensure every checkout would get an updated
sources.list.udeb (with [trusted=yes]), since that was meant to be
temporary, and that was almost 2 years ago.
* Replace ttf-kannada-fonts-udeb with fonts-knda-udeb.
* Specify -j1 for the submake definition in build/Makefile; that's what
happens anyway, and warnings go away accordingly.
* Add fonts-lohit-guru-udeb to gtk images, fixing rendering for Punjabi
(Closes: #761573).
* Apply patch from Ron and Chris Kuehl to fix lib location and search
path for syslinux >= 5. Some constraints include having ldlinux.c32
in the tftp root, and being able to find some support libraries
thanks to a defined path (Closes: #756275). Many thanks!
* Update translation-status for the release.
[ Frederic Bonnard / Aurelien Jarno ]
* Add ppc64el support installing sid (Closes: #754093).
[ Steven Chamberlain ]
* On kfreebsd and hurd, which use GRUB for PXE booting, request two
additional modules in the grub-mkimage step: (Closes: #759686)
- tftp: required since GRUB 2.02 otherwise PXE boot will crash/hang
- gfxterm_background: required since GRUB 2.02 for the boot splash
image functionality to be available
- raise the grub-pc (and indirectly grub-common) build dependency to
>= 2.02~beta2~ on these architectures, because module
gfxterm_background did not exist in GRUB 2.00
- raise the xorriso build dependency to >= 1.3.2-1~ on these
architectures, for compatibility with grub-mkrescue in GRUB 2.02
[ Joey Hess ]
* Remove desktop selection from syslinux; now available in tasksel.
* remove desktop=xfce preseeding on kfreebsd-* and hurd, since tasksel
3.27 knows about architecture-specific defaults (Closes: #762614).
[ Ben Hutchings ]
* Keep Linux modules.builtin file in the initrd.
* Update new-kernel-checklist.txt for the last few years' changes.
