9 rt73-modules-2.6.31-grml from GRML_MEDIUM.
10 - Drop rt2400-modules-2.6.31-grml, rt73-modules-2.6.31-grml and

21 debootstrap doesn't know how to handle 'stable'.
22 Thanks to Ulrich Dangel.

31 * Send 'Find FAI build logs at' message to grml-live.log as well.
32 * Software related changes:
33 - Add comgt to GRML_FULL.
34 - Add fatattr to GRML_FULL.
35 - Add libsmbios-bin to GRML_FULL (thanks to Christian Bricart).
36 - Add qla-tools to GRML_FULL.
37 - Add xmount to GRML_FULL.
38 - Drop edac-utils from GRML_FULL (it's in a bad shape within Debian).
39 - Drop deprecated firmware-ipw3945 + ipw3945d from GRML_SMALL,
40 GRML_MEDIUM and GRML_FULL.
41 - Drop lanmap (abandonned upstream, see #542376).

43 - Replace nessusclient, nessusd and nessus-plugins with
44 openvas-client and openvas-server in GRML_FULL.
45 * Do not use /etc/grml_version but instead use /etc/debian_version
46 as check whether the chroot exists. If grml-live execution
47 itself succeded but was interrupted during task_configure it should
48 be fine to re-run grml-live with -u/-b options.
49 * Fix usage of exclude option in $SQUASHFS_OPTIONS.
50 * Always remove temporary squashfs stderr file.
51 * Fix usage of /etc/runlevel.conf in 15-initsetup.
52 * Add wicd configuration to /etc/grml/fai/config/debconf/GRMLBASE.
53 * Temporarly move /etc/apt/sources.list.d/grml.list in instsoft.GRMLBASE
54 to /etc/apt/sources.list.d/grml.unused and restore in 33-aptsetup
55 again then. This should should prevent us from duplicated sources
57 * New cmdline option: "-n" skips generation of the ISO file.
58 * Introduce support for squashfs-lzma-tools 4.0-1 and support
59 configuration variable SQUASHFS_BINARY.
60 * Modify update-initramfs call in grml-live script as the
61 'update-initramfs -u -t' might fail with linux images which have been
62 build using kernel-package.
63 * templates/boot/isolinux/grml.cfg: add space char at end of lines in entries
64 that are meant for manual editing (so user just has to press <tab>
66 * Add 'pci=nomsi' to failsafe bootoption (thanks to Marc 'HE' Brockschmidt).
67 * Fix grml2usb bootoption in templates/boot/isolinux/grml.cfg.
68 * Display "Finished execution of stage 'WINDOWS_BINARIES'" only if the
69 according code has been executed (and do not display if skipping).
70 * Completely remove /lib/modules/${KERNEL}/kernel/drivers/isdn/hisax on
71 grml-small as there will be unresolved symbols without hisax.ko.

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

161 * Add gnupg2 to GRML_FULL. Thanks to Walter Haidinger.
162 * Drop all references to xserver-xorg-input-elo2300 (see #527699).

167 - Drop ext2resize (see #400797).
168 - Drop fcoretools (see #534542).
169 - Drop gdk-imlib11 (see #522810).
170 - Drop gqcam (still depends on gtk1.2).

172 nowadays, see #533275).
173 - Drop libpam-pwgen (see #511613).
174 - Drop rgpsp (owner set to Debian QA Group and package doesn't seem
175 to be that important for grml).
176 - Drop windowlab (see #410618).
177 - Drop workbone (see #429178).
178 * Add check for valid Debian suite name to avoid breakage of sources.list

184 - add cronjob based on what the grml team is using at daily.grml.org
185 - use '-a' instead of '-rltD' as rsync option to sync logs
186 - use timestamp with hour, minute and second to match with FAI style
187 * /etc/grml/fai/config/hooks/updatebase.GRMLBASE: install apt configuration
188 also when updating the chroot (this happens if we have a base.tgz available
189 on fresh installations).
190 * Document usage of STOP_ON_ERROR in /etc/grml/fai/fai.conf.
191 * Really add support for genisoimage (thanks for the bugreport, Worf).
192 * Set subdirectories of $OUTPUT independent of cmdline parsing so
193 it is possible to set it via conffile as well.
194 * Validate whether the specified architecture class matches the
195 architecture (option), otherwise installation of kernel will fail.
196 * Add 'How do I deploy grml-live on a plain Debian installation' to FAQ.
197 * Build grml-live documentation with table of content.

435 Otherwise with something like 'grml64-medium-daily-squeeze 20090223'
437 "mkisofs: Volume ID string too long (cur. XX max. 32 chars)."
438 - add buildd/execute.sh to further simplify buildd/*.sh setup
439 - send_mail(): do not append /var/log/grml-buildd.stdout by default
440 - add shebang line to buildd/[execute|functions].sh to make lintian happy
441 * Replace placeholder %GRML_NAME_SQUASHFS% with according value in
442 bootsplash f5. [Closes: issue619]

452 - drop package tspc (see #462738 and #515193)
453 - replace gqview with geeqie (thanks, Spida)
454 * Changes in GRML_MEDIUM:
455 - add beep (on request by gebi)
456 - add dstat (on request by gebi)
457 - add mc (on request by Christian Kuehlborn)
458 * Document noautoconfig in grml-cheatcodes. Thanks to Ralf Moll!
460 - rename all etch* related scripts to lenny*
461 - adjust scripts to use "lenny" instead of "stable" for building
462 [to avoid that "etch" is used as build name but lenny is used]
463 - use "$NAME-daily-$SUITE" in functions.sh as build name so
464 identifying ISOs while running them is easier
465 * Support squeeze as valid suite name.
466 * Comment Debian/unstable in /etc/grml/fai/apt/preferences by default.
467 This should avoid issues with something like
468 'apt-get -t experimental ...'
469 * Consequently drop 'Latest change' lines from all files.
470 * Support generation of sha1sum [Testing: issue622]
471 * Drop first, unnecessary APPEND line in isolinux.cfg and syslinux.cfg.
473 * Do no longer use the bootoption lang=us by default. We use it by default
474 in grml-autoconfig anyway and this shortens our /proc/cmdline.
475 * Run commands requiring network access through 'timeout 10' by default
476 if possible. [Closes: issue396]
477 * Do not use build server's hostname for /etc/mailname and
478 /etc/bacula/bacula-fd.conf. [Testing: issue412]

486 Thanks to Thomas Lehmann for the bugreport!
487 * Move /etc/grml/fai/apt/preferences to /etc/grml/fai/files/etc/apt/.
488 This simplifies the directory layout a bit. Clarify its usage
489 in /etc/grml/fai/apt/important_note.txt
490 * Install all files from /etc/grml/fai/files/etc/apt. This supports
491 usage of directories like /etc/apt/apt.conf.d. Thanks for the
492 hint to Thomas Lehmann. [Closes: issue632]
493 * Replace all "sed -i 's/././' foo" calls with
494 'sed -i 's/././' foo | sponge foo' instead inside main grml-live script
495 so we don't destroy any existing symlinks. Depend on moreutils therefor.
497 * Integrate bsd4grml [hash: 987ce9a6f9ce205ba64794ed3fcac603]. This
498 provides MirBSD as bootoption 'bsd' at grml's bootprompt. Thanks to
499 Thorsten "mirabilos" Glaser for his work! Add support for
500 configuring NO_ADDONS_BSD4GRML via configuration file.
501 * Add informational header to /etc/grml/fai/apt/sources.list and
502 update docs regarding the file.
503 * If specified SUITE is unstable use 'sid' instead (to avoid breakages
505 * Support NO_ADDONS via configuration file.

556 * Remove mozilla-imagezoom from GRML_FULL (the "extension installed"

559 * Rework locale handling. From now on /usr/share/locale gets removed
560 by default (though /usr/share/i18n/locales won't be touched for
561 now), unless using class LOCALES. Reason: We have >70MB inside
562 /usr/share/locale on GRML_FULL, just too much to ship by default,
563 message at startup sucks).

1138 * Added new grml-repository named grml-live which is intented
1139 to fix issues from Debian for grml-live builds. It is automatically
1140 activated if you are building against unstable/sid and should
1141 be used manually only if you realy know what you are doing.
1142 Notice: if something fails inside building the base chroot/
1143 debootstrap system we can't do anything via grml-live for you
1144 right now. Instead grab the base.tgz from http://daily.grml.org/
