Package "debian-cd"

debian-cd (3.1.7) unstable; urgency=low

  [ Ben Hutchings ]
  * In the boot prompt for powerpc, make install64 more prominent.
    Closes: #614583

  [ Steve McIntyre ]
  * Merge update-cd changes back from the squeeze branch:
    + Remove the old non-US stuff from it, it's not been needed in years.
    + Cope with .bz2 source files too.
    + Merged and simplified the old functionality from scansources.old
      and scanpackages.old into the new script create_control.
    + Run the mkisofs step *outside* of "set -e" so that we can actually
      report errors instead of silently failing.
    + Split out the code for starting a new disc into a function.
    + Pick up on a potential bug: if we finish the last (expected) disc with
      a backed-out file, make sure we create another image to include that
      file too.
  * Update make_disc_trees.pl and which_deb to cope with different
    types of source file, and clean up the code in that area.
  * tools/make_image: generate list files while we have the CD trees
    available
  * update the URL for downloading s390 d-i dailies.
  * Add linux-image-2.6-686-bigmem to tasks//interesting-fromcd23
    to try and put that on i386 image sets before linux-image-amd64.
    Closes: #622622
  * update the URL for downloading i386 d-i dailies.
  * update the URL for downloading armel d-i dailies.
  * tools/grab_md5:
    + Improve Packages and Sources file parsing;
    + Cope with differently-formed files that are still valid
      (don't assume field ordering).
    + Switch from awk to perl makes things much faster too!
    + Make arch handling more generic - instead of having to list all
      arches, allow a wildcard and then check for lack of Packages.gz files
  * tools/make-firmware-image: Rather than use the firmware task which
    gets out of date, look for firmware/microcode files directly in the
    Packages file. Check for things installing in /lib/firmware, and add
    those packages.
  * Remove the checked-in firmware task altogether, as it's not
    useful. Generate it when needed using the new script
    tools/generate_firmware_task.
  * Add apt-offline to tasks/wheezy/forcd1 to bring it onto CD#1.
    Closes: #630805
  * Add links to snapshot.debian.org into jigdo files.

  [ Aurelien Jarno ]
  * Add support for hurd-i386. Closes: #619211
