1 grml-live (0.9.23) UNRELEASED; urgency=low
3 * Add backwards compability check for old sources.list layout
4 (we're using /etc/apt/sources.list.d now) to script
5 /etc/grml/fai/config/scripts/GRMLBASE/33-aptsetup
6 * GRML_SMALL, GRML_MEDIUM and GRML_FULL: switch from kernel
7 2.6.28-grml[64] to 2.6.31-grml[64].
8 * Assume 'lenny' as default SUITE instead of 'stable' as
9 debootstrap doesn't know how to handle 'stable'.
10 Thanks to Ulrich Dangel.

14 grml-live (0.9.22) unstable; urgency=low
16 * Send 'Find FAI build logs at' message to grml-live.log as well.
17 * Software related changes:
18 - Add comgt to GRML_FULL.
19 - Add fatattr to GRML_FULL.
20 - Add libsmbios-bin to GRML_FULL (thanks to Christian Bricart).
21 - Add qla-tools to GRML_FULL.
22 - Add xmount to GRML_FULL.
23 - Drop edac-utils from GRML_FULL (it's in a bad shape within Debian).
24 - Drop deprecated firmware-ipw3945 + ipw3945d from GRML_SMALL,
25 GRML_MEDIUM and GRML_FULL.
26 - Drop lanmap (abandonned upstream, see #542376).
27 - Move dmidecode from GRML_SMALL, GRML_MEDIUM and GRML_FULL to GRMLBASE.
28 - Replace nessusclient, nessusd and nessus-plugins with
29 openvas-client and openvas-server in GRML_FULL.
30 * Do not use /etc/grml_version but instead use /etc/debian_version
31 as check whether the chroot exists. If grml-live execution
32 itself succeded but was interrupted during task_configure it should
33 be fine to re-run grml-live with -u/-b options.
34 * Fix usage of exclude option in $SQUASHFS_OPTIONS.
35 * Always remove temporary squashfs stderr file.
36 * Fix usage of /etc/runlevel.conf in 15-initsetup.
37 * Add wicd configuration to /etc/grml/fai/config/debconf/GRMLBASE.
38 * Temporarly move /etc/apt/sources.list.d/grml.list in instsoft.GRMLBASE
39 to /etc/apt/sources.list.d/grml.unused and restore in 33-aptsetup
40 again then. This should should prevent us from duplicated sources
42 * New cmdline option: "-n" skips generation of the ISO file.
43 * Introduce support for squashfs-lzma-tools 4.0-1 and support
44 configuration variable SQUASHFS_BINARY.
45 * Modify update-initramfs call in grml-live script as the
46 'update-initramfs -u -t' might fail with linux images which have been
47 build using kernel-package.
48 * templates/boot/isolinux/grml.cfg: add space char at end of lines in entries
49 that are meant for manual editing (so user just has to press <tab>
51 * Add 'pci=nomsi' to failsafe bootoption (thanks to Marc 'HE' Brockschmidt).
52 * Fix grml2usb bootoption in templates/boot/isolinux/grml.cfg.
53 * Display "Finished execution of stage 'WINDOWS_BINARIES'" only if the
54 according code has been executed (and do not display if skipping).
55 * Completely remove /lib/modules/${KERNEL}/kernel/drivers/isdn/hisax on
56 grml-small as there will be unresolved symbols without hisax.ko.

60 grml-live (0.9.21) unstable; urgency=low
65 - Split the single /etc/apt/sources.list file into structured files
66 in /etc/apt/sources.list.d/. We are using:
67 - /etc/apt/sources.list.d/grml.list for all grml related repositories
68 - /etc/apt/sources.list.d/debian.list for official Debian repositories
70 - Provide information about grml-live version and Debian/suite
71 through /etc/grml_live_version in the generated ISO. [Closes: issue637]
72 - New graphical boot menu. Can be disabled via ISOLINUX_METHOD=console.
73 - New configuration variables DISTRI_NAME and DISTRI_INFO which should allow
74 easier rebranding of grml-live based distributions.
75 - Support installation of local files (not being part of any Debian package)
76 through $CHROOT_INSTALL.
77 - Display path of FAI logs during execution of grml-live.
78 - Replace all references to ftp.de.debian.org with cdn.debian.org,
79 see http://wiki.debian.org/DebianGeoMirror for details.
80 Thanks for the idea, Marc Haber!
82 * Bug fixes and improvements:
83 - When adjusting postfix configuration: make sure to execute newaliases
84 command after adjusting configuration, otherwise the old hostname
85 will be left inside /etc/aliases.db.
86 - grml_cleanup_chroot: get rid of /etc/lvm/cache/.cache and
87 /etc/lvm/backup/main as well.
88 - grml_cleanup_chroot: drop the /usr/include/linux checks.
89 - 90-update-alternatives: use wm-ng as default x-window-manager.
91 - Check for existence of $target/etc/apt/important_note.txt before
93 - buildd: drop GRML_LIVE_ARCH but instead use default architecture
95 - Set UTC=no by default. See http://bts.grml.org/grml/issue708 for
96 details. Credits to Ulrich Zehl for debugging. [Closes: issue708]
97 - Improve check for architecture which should be build: if not specified
98 assume a safe default and check this one.
99 - Unify variable default checks, always assume sane defaults.
100 - Always run $SUITE checks, so grml-live repository is used also
101 if suite isn't manually specified.
102 - Detect existence of stage 'boot' using boot/isolinux so grml-live
103 executed with options '-q -B' and empty boot/isolinux works as well.
104 - Introduce $NO_WINDOWS_BINARIES which replaces $WINDOWS_BINARIES so
105 we can improve sanity checks and easify configuration.
106 - Integrate memtest86+ binary so we don't ship old versions from
107 the build host. [Closes: issue717]
108 - Check whether rebuild of ISO is needed even though the ISO exists already.
111 * Debian packaging related changes:
112 - Bump to Standard-Version 3.8.3 (no further changes).
113 - Improve long description.
114 - Update copyright file (make lintian happy).
115 - Register grml-live html docs using doc-base.
118 - grml-cheatcodes: document bootoption 'nostartx'.
119 - Apply patch from Marc Haber (thanks!) for new grml cheatcodes
120 (new DCS directory feature).
122 * Software related changes:
123 - Add git-email to GRML_FULL (thanks to Joerg Woelke for mentioning).
124 - Add aesfix, aeskeyfind, bios-memimage, chaosreader, ext3grep, fatback,
125 myrescue, pipebench, safecopy, shed and xmount to GRML_FORENSIC. The
126 packages are either already available or should be available soon.
127 - Add scsitools to GRML_MEDIUM.
128 - Drop bar from GRML_FULL (no release since 2007, consider using
129 for example cpipe instead).
130 - Drop grml-saveconfig as it is replaced with recent versions
132 - Drop hydra from GRML_FULL (the license is not a clean GPL one).
133 - Drop icedax from GRML_FULL (we have schilyutils available).
136 * Update MirOS bsd4grml to 20090812 and sync menu.lst, grub.cfg,
137 isolinux.cfg, syslinux.cfg with each other; provide a fallback
138 way to boot MirOS bsd4grml from both GRUB versions using modules.
139 * Fix going back to GNU GRUB from ldbsd.com via alternative boot method;
140 while here, add the grml release info to the appropriate file.

146 * Add gnupg2 to GRML_FULL. Thanks to Walter Haidinger.
147 * Drop all references to xserver-xorg-input-elo2300 (see #527699).
148 * Cleanups in GRML_FULL:
149 - Drop cheops (depends on libgtk1.2).
150 - Drop dviutils ("Note: selecting "texlive-extra-utils" instead of the
151 virtual package "dviutils" -> non-existing package)
152 - Drop ext2resize (see #400797).
153 - Drop fcoretools (see #534542).
154 - Drop gdk-imlib11 (see #522810).
155 - Drop gqcam (still depends on gtk1.2).
156 - Drop hping2 (hping3 is available in all relevant Debian releases
157 nowadays, see #533275).
158 - Drop libpam-pwgen (see #511613).
159 - Drop rgpsp (owner set to Debian QA Group and package doesn't seem
160 to be that important for grml).
161 - Drop windowlab (see #410618).
162 - Drop workbone (see #429178).
163 * Add check for valid Debian suite name to avoid breakage of sources.list
164 if someone calls grml-live with a typo in the -s option.
165 * Add exception for libewf1 and libstdc++2.10-glibc2.2 in
166 /etc/grml/fai/config/scripts/GRMLBASE/40-deborphan.
168 - add support for building squeeze based ISOs.
169 - add cronjob based on what the grml team is using at daily.grml.org
170 - use '-a' instead of '-rltD' as rsync option to sync logs
171 - use timestamp with hour, minute and second to match with FAI style
172 * /etc/grml/fai/config/hooks/updatebase.GRMLBASE: install apt configuration
173 also when updating the chroot (this happens if we have a base.tgz available
174 on fresh installations).
175 * Document usage of STOP_ON_ERROR in /etc/grml/fai/fai.conf.
176 * Really add support for genisoimage (thanks for the bugreport, Worf).
177 * Set subdirectories of $OUTPUT independent of cmdline parsing so
178 it is possible to set it via conffile as well.
179 * Validate whether the specified architecture class matches the
180 architecture (option), otherwise installation of kernel will fail.
181 * Add 'How do I deploy grml-live on a plain Debian installation' to FAQ.
182 * Build grml-live documentation with table of content.

436 * Changes in GRML_FULL:
437 - drop package tspc (see #462738 and #515193)
438 - replace gqview with geeqie (thanks, Spida)
439 * Changes in GRML_MEDIUM:
440 - add beep (on request by gebi)
441 - add dstat (on request by gebi)
442 - add mc (on request by Christian Kuehlborn)
443 * Document noautoconfig in grml-cheatcodes. Thanks to Ralf Moll!
445 - rename all etch* related scripts to lenny*
446 - adjust scripts to use "lenny" instead of "stable" for building
447 [to avoid that "etch" is used as build name but lenny is used]
448 - use "$NAME-daily-$SUITE" in functions.sh as build name so
449 identifying ISOs while running them is easier
450 * Support squeeze as valid suite name.
451 * Comment Debian/unstable in /etc/grml/fai/apt/preferences by default.
452 This should avoid issues with something like
453 'apt-get -t experimental ...'
454 * Consequently drop 'Latest change' lines from all files.
455 * Support generation of sha1sum [Testing: issue622]
456 * Drop first, unnecessary APPEND line in isolinux.cfg and syslinux.cfg.
458 * Do no longer use the bootoption lang=us by default. We use it by default
459 in grml-autoconfig anyway and this shortens our /proc/cmdline.
460 * Run commands requiring network access through 'timeout 10' by default
461 if possible. [Closes: issue396]
462 * Do not use build server's hostname for /etc/mailname and
463 /etc/bacula/bacula-fd.conf. [Testing: issue412]
464 * Add "forensic" to the append line when using the forensic kerneloption
465 so we can grep for it in any case.
466 * 15-initsetup: keep a backup of the original runlevel.conf file.
467 Thanks to Thomas Lehmann for the idea! [Closes: issue570]
468 * instsoft.GRMLBASE: support installation of multiple gpg keys
469 via /etc/grml/fai/files/etc/apt/*.key
470 * isolinux.cfg/syslinux.cfg: Drop duplicated 'MENU DEFAULT'.
471 Thanks to Thomas Lehmann for the bugreport!
472 * Move /etc/grml/fai/apt/preferences to /etc/grml/fai/files/etc/apt/.
473 This simplifies the directory layout a bit. Clarify its usage
474 in /etc/grml/fai/apt/important_note.txt
475 * Install all files from /etc/grml/fai/files/etc/apt. This supports
476 usage of directories like /etc/apt/apt.conf.d. Thanks for the
477 hint to Thomas Lehmann. [Closes: issue632]
478 * Replace all "sed -i 's/././' foo" calls with
479 'sed -i 's/././' foo | sponge foo' instead inside main grml-live script
480 so we don't destroy any existing symlinks. Depend on moreutils therefor.
482 * Integrate bsd4grml [hash: 987ce9a6f9ce205ba64794ed3fcac603]. This
483 provides MirBSD as bootoption 'bsd' at grml's bootprompt. Thanks to
484 Thorsten "mirabilos" Glaser for his work! Add support for
485 configuring NO_ADDONS_BSD4GRML via configuration file.
486 * Add informational header to /etc/grml/fai/apt/sources.list and
487 update docs regarding the file.
488 * If specified SUITE is unstable use 'sid' instead (to avoid breakages
490 * Support NO_ADDONS via configuration file.
491 * Always skip mksquashfs part when using -q option.
492 * Adjust configuration files on the fly only when the according lines

538 - latencytop (A tool for developers to visualize system latencies)
539 - powertop (Linux tool to find out what is using power on a laptop)
540 * Remove localepurge from GRML_SMALL.
541 * Remove mozilla-imagezoom from GRML_FULL (the "extension installed"
542 * Execute dpkg-reconfigure for localepurge with noninteractive frontend.
544 * Rework locale handling. From now on /usr/share/locale gets removed
545 by default (though /usr/share/i18n/locales won't be touched for
546 now), unless using class LOCALES. Reason: We have >70MB inside
547 /usr/share/locale on GRML_FULL, just too much to ship by default,
548 message at startup sucks).
549 * Update grml-cheatcodes.txt.
550 * Provide grml's gpg key via /etc/grml/fai/files/etc/apt/grml.key
551 so we support offline operation as well. Based on an idea by
552 Thomas Lehmann, thanks!
553 * Generate ISO with volume label "${GRML_NAME} ${VERSION}" instead of
554 "grml $VERSION" so we propagate the according grml-name. Thanks to
556 * Support -q option to build the ISO without (re-)creating the squashfs
557 compressed file using mksquashfs.

566 * Handle policy-rc.d in /etc/grml/fai/config/hooks/updatebase.GRMLBASE
567 because we have to skip FAI's updatebase task and lack /proc therefore.
568 New packages that are being installed and want to start any daemons

582 Depend on squashfs-lzma-tools - but allow usage
583 of squashfs-tools as well).
584 * Activate grml-testing repository for devel releases and
585 daily snapshots. [Testing: issue531]
587 - drop lzma-modules-2.6.26-grml[64] and

965 FAI version 3.2.3 therefor.
966 * FAI 3.2.3 has a new log schema, adjusted grml-live accordingly.
967 Quoting the NEWS file of FAI:
968 - LOGDIR is now /var/log/fai/$HOSTNAME/$FAI_ACTION_date+time

1100 The "holidays? what? are you joking?!"-release.
1102 * Added FAI patches to /usr/share/grml-live/patches/ - it's
1103 recommended to apply the patches to FAI until they are accepted
1104 upstream. See Debian's BTS for more details: #444210, #447080
1106 * Support option '-u' for updating system.
1107 * Reworked buildd concept.
1108 - Now we have a seperate
1109 /usr/share/grml-live/buildd/functions.sh for generic stuff
1110 and /etc/grml/grml-buildd.conf as configuration file.
1111 - Use grml-buildd.{stdout,stderr} instead of
1112 grml-live.{stdout,stderr} as log files.
1113 - buildd/functions.sh: do not mv files if there was an error
1114 during grml-live execution

1122 $ZERO_LOGFILE for cleaning up logs.
1123 * Added new grml-repository named grml-live which is intented
1124 to fix issues from Debian for grml-live builds. It is automatically
1125 activated if you are building against unstable/sid and should
1126 be used manually only if you realy know what you are doing.
1127 Notice: if something fails inside building the base chroot/
1128 debootstrap system we can't do anything via grml-live for you
1129 right now. Instead grab the base.tgz from http://daily.grml.org/
1130 * Add /usr/share/grml-live/scripts/repodiff.pl (by formorer, thx!)
1131 for comparing two repositories.
1132 * Replaced /etc/grml/fai/files/etc/apt/preferences

1144 for xserver-xorg package via debconf to work around #448863.
1145 * Use "newest" kernel only if two kernels are present in the chroot.
1146 * Set $SECONDS to unknown if $start_seconds is not set.
1147 * Log closing signs (----...) via bailout to make sure they are
1148 always set - even when exiting with an error.
1149 * Check for presence of /bin/zsh before setting default shell in
1150 /etc/grml/fai/config/scripts/GRMLBASE/21-usersetup
