Changelog
debian-installer (20160101) unstable; urgency=medium
[ Karsten Merker ]
* Provide u-boot and SD-card images for the LinkSprite pcDuino.
[ Cyril Brulebois ]
* Adjust p-u support to handle file:// instead of (f|ht)tp:// only,
thanks to Ćukasz Stelmach for both the report and the patch
(Closes: #803711).
[ Samuel Thibault ]
* Bump hurd kernel version.
* Prevent spurious speech synthesis boot entry.
[ Vagrant Cascadian ]
* bootscr.mainline_common: Prefer newer u-boot distro_bootpart variable.
[ Cyril Brulebois ]
* Cherry-pick the following changes by Steven Chamberlain from the
jessie-kfreebsd branch.
* build/Makefile: Rename GZIP into gzip, and pass an extra -T to pigz
(it needs both -n and -T to behave as gzip's -n).
* build/config/x86.cfg: Also pass -n to gzip.
* Bump linux kernel version from 4.2.0-1 to 4.3.0-1
* Replace the module-init-tools build-dep with a kmod one since the
transitional package got dropped in kmod/22-1.
* Apply patch from gregor herrmann to fix new warnings with perl 5.22
(Closes: #808875). Thanks!
* Update copyright years on the F10 help screen.
* Update translation-status for the release.
[ Steven Chamberlain ]
* Improve reproducibility of debian-installer netboot images
(Closes: #805321):
* Add a new utility build/util/gen-tarball to make reproducible
tarballs, and use it for:
- netboot.tar.gz
- debian-cd_info.tar.gz
- the overall debian-installer-images tar.gz file.
* Inhibit gzip timestamp in initrd.gz
* Ensure SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH is exported throughout the build system,
define it if unset, or fall back to 'now' if build/Makefile is
directly invoked.
[ Steve McIntyre ]
* Add the part_gpt module into the core grub image to make it easier
for users doing slightly different things with our images; include
support for GPT partition tables as well as msdos (Closes: #789600).
[ Ben Hutchings ]
* Include leds-modules on armhf if available
* Update i386 config to use 686 kernel flavour instead of 586
[ Martin Michlmayr ]
* Update docs to reflect that Package-Type and Installer-Menu-Item
are official fields nowadays (Closes: #807716).
* Remove minix-modules from the orion5x network-console image since
it was only required by the D-Link DNS-323, a device that's no longer
supported.
* Exclude usb-serial-modules from the armel network-console image
since it's not useful there (Closes: #809301).
* Exclude usb-modules explicitly on armel/orion5x network-console
to work around a bug in util/pkg-list.
* Stop including sata and ext2/ext3 modules on the armel/orion5x
network-console image due to size limitations on QNAP TS-x09.
* Drop the file extension from the initrd for QNAP devices.
* Re-introduce installer images for QNAP TS-x09.
* Recognize /dev/disk1_1 and /dev/ls_disk1_1 as boot devices
on Linkstation. Thanks Roger Shimizu (Closes: 722735).
[ John Paul Adrian Glaubitz ]
* Set KERNELVERSION for sparc64 to $(LINUX_KERNEL_ABI)-sparc64.
* Set KEYRING to debian-ports on sparc64.
* Add silo to Build-Depends on sparc64.
* Fix typo (problimatic -> problematic) in silo comment.
* Clone boot configuration files from sparc for sparc64.
