6 - Drop ash from GRML_FULL (unrelevant for Grml).
7 - Drop crack-common from GRML_FULL (it's a dependency of crack*).
8 - Drop libpam-krb5 from GRML_FULL (related to #545824).

13 rt2400-modules-2.6.31-grml64 from GRML_FULL.
14 - Drop version specific dependency on -mysql-client-5.0.
15 - Add febootstrap to GRML_FULL.

23 /etc/grml/fai/config/scripts/GRMLBASE/33-aptsetup
24 * Assume 'lenny' as default SUITE instead of 'stable' as

38 * Software related changes:
39 - Add comgt to GRML_FULL.
40 - Add fatattr to GRML_FULL.
41 - Add libsmbios-bin to GRML_FULL (thanks to Christian Bricart).
42 - Add qla-tools to GRML_FULL.
43 - Add xmount to GRML_FULL.

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

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

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

173 - Drop ext2resize (see #400797).
174 - Drop fcoretools (see #534542).
175 - Drop gdk-imlib11 (see #522810).
176 - Drop gqcam (still depends on gtk1.2).

178 nowadays, see #533275).
179 - Drop libpam-pwgen (see #511613).
180 - Drop rgpsp (owner set to Debian QA Group and package doesn't seem
181 to be that important for grml).
182 - Drop windowlab (see #410618).
183 - Drop workbone (see #429178).
184 * Add check for valid Debian suite name to avoid breakage of sources.list
185 if someone calls grml-live with a typo in the -s option.
186 * Add exception for libewf1 and libstdc++2.10-glibc2.2 in
187 /etc/grml/fai/config/scripts/GRMLBASE/40-deborphan.

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

459 - replace gqview with geeqie (thanks, Spida)
460 * Changes in GRML_MEDIUM:

464 * Document noautoconfig in grml-cheatcodes. Thanks to Ralf Moll!
466 - rename all etch* related scripts to lenny*
467 - adjust scripts to use "lenny" instead of "stable" for building
468 [to avoid that "etch" is used as build name but lenny is used]
469 - use "$NAME-daily-$SUITE" in functions.sh as build name so
470 identifying ISOs while running them is easier
471 * Support squeeze as valid suite name.
472 * Comment Debian/unstable in /etc/grml/fai/apt/preferences by default.
473 This should avoid issues with something like
474 'apt-get -t experimental ...'
475 * Consequently drop 'Latest change' lines from all files.
476 * Support generation of sha1sum [Testing: issue622]
477 * Drop first, unnecessary APPEND line in isolinux.cfg and syslinux.cfg.
479 * Do no longer use the bootoption lang=us by default. We use it by default
480 in grml-autoconfig anyway and this shortens our /proc/cmdline.
481 * Run commands requiring network access through 'timeout 10' by default
482 if possible. [Closes: issue396]

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

565 * Rework locale handling. From now on /usr/share/locale gets removed
566 by default (though /usr/share/i18n/locales won't be touched for

1144 * Added new grml-repository named grml-live which is intented
1145 to fix issues from Debian for grml-live builds. It is automatically
1146 activated if you are building against unstable/sid and should
1147 be used manually only if you realy know what you are doing.
