3 * scripts/GRMLBASE/39-modprobe: Make sure all modprobe configuration
4 files use .conf as filename suffix. [Closes: issue647]
5 * Disable PDiffs by default via /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/20pdiffs.
6 * 90-update-alternatives: check for symlinks of iceweasel and
7 mount.ntfs-3g and force creation of /sbin/mount.ntfs symlink.
8 * Rework addons handling (make sure to install boot addons independent
9 from bsd4grml which might be disabled).
10 * Updated boot manager teamplates (simplify syslinux.cfg,
11 update failsafe bootoption, add GPXE to grub.cf, drop duplicate
12 boot=live from grub.cfg)
13 * Do not bailout if reading dpkg.list fails, instead assume user
14 is running a dirty build and display a warning message.
15 * Check for precense of grub directory and files in templates
16 that we are adjusting on-the-fly and skip non-existing ones
17 so customisation of templates is easier.
18 * Drop debug from bootoptions and use debug=vc only. 'debug' without
19 arguments avoids displaying the executed code in the initramfs
20 which is something you usually want to have enabled by default
21 when debugging a system.

38 - Moved /etc/grml/fai/files to /etc/grml/fai/config/files (and
39 /etc/grml/fai/live-initramfs to /etc/grml/fai/config/). This is
40 an important step to use the config space and class concept of

51 versions of mutt introduced a major breakage (see #539276).
52 - scripts/GRMLBASE/38-udev: check for presence of config file.
53 - Ignore $EXIT_ON_MISSING_PACKAGES if running a dirty build
55 - Make sure to use sources.list of grml-live, even on updates
56 through -u option. [Closes: issue803]

461 * Bug fixes and improvements:
462 - When adjusting postfix configuration: make sure to execute newaliases
463 command after adjusting configuration, otherwise the old hostname
464 will be left inside /etc/aliases.db.
465 - grml_cleanup_chroot: get rid of /etc/lvm/cache/.cache and
466 /etc/lvm/backup/main as well.
467 - grml_cleanup_chroot: drop the /usr/include/linux checks.
468 - 90-update-alternatives: use wm-ng as default x-window-manager.
470 - Check for existence of $target/etc/apt/important_note.txt before
472 - buildd: drop GRML_LIVE_ARCH but instead use default architecture
474 - Set UTC=no by default. See http://bts.grml.org/grml/issue708 for
475 details. Credits to Ulrich Zehl for debugging. [Closes: issue708]
476 - Improve check for architecture which should be build: if not specified
477 assume a safe default and check this one.
478 - Unify variable default checks, always assume sane defaults.
479 - Always run $SUITE checks, so grml-live repository is used also
480 if suite isn't manually specified.
481 - Detect existence of stage 'boot' using boot/isolinux so grml-live
482 executed with options '-q -B' and empty boot/isolinux works as well.
483 - Introduce $NO_WINDOWS_BINARIES which replaces $WINDOWS_BINARIES so
484 we can improve sanity checks and easify configuration.
485 - Integrate memtest86+ binary so we don't ship old versions from
486 the build host. [Closes: issue717]
487 - Check whether rebuild of ISO is needed even though the ISO exists already.
490 * Debian packaging related changes:
491 - Bump to Standard-Version 3.8.3 (no further changes).
492 - Improve long description.
493 - Update copyright file (make lintian happy).
494 - Register grml-live html docs using doc-base.
497 - grml-cheatcodes: document bootoption 'nostartx'.
498 - Apply patch from Marc Haber (thanks!) for new grml cheatcodes
499 (new DCS directory feature).
501 * Software related changes:
502 - Add git-email to GRML_FULL (thanks to Joerg Woelke for mentioning).
503 - Add aesfix, aeskeyfind, bios-memimage, chaosreader, ext3grep, fatback,
504 myrescue, pipebench, safecopy, shed and xmount to GRML_FORENSIC. The
505 packages are either already available or should be available soon.
506 - Add scsitools to GRML_MEDIUM.
507 - Drop bar from GRML_FULL (no release since 2007, consider using
508 for example cpipe instead).
509 - Drop grml-saveconfig as it is replaced with recent versions
511 - Drop hydra from GRML_FULL (the license is not a clean GPL one).
512 - Drop icedax from GRML_FULL (we have schilyutils available).
515 * Update MirOS bsd4grml to 20090812 and sync menu.lst, grub.cfg,
516 isolinux.cfg, syslinux.cfg with each other; provide a fallback
517 way to boot MirOS bsd4grml from both GRUB versions using modules.
518 * Fix going back to GNU GRUB from ldbsd.com via alternative boot method;
519 while here, add the grml release info to the appropriate file.

526 * Drop all references to xserver-xorg-input-elo2300 (see #527699).
527 * Cleanups in GRML_FULL:
528 - Drop cheops (depends on libgtk1.2).
529 - Drop dviutils ("Note: selecting "texlive-extra-utils" instead of the
530 virtual package "dviutils" -> non-existing package)
531 - Drop ext2resize (see #400797).
532 - Drop fcoretools (see #534542).
533 - Drop gdk-imlib11 (see #522810).
534 - Drop gqcam (still depends on gtk1.2).

536 nowadays, see #533275).
537 - Drop libpam-pwgen (see #511613).
538 - Drop rgpsp (owner set to Debian QA Group and package doesn't seem
539 to be that important for grml).
540 - Drop windowlab (see #410618).
541 - Drop workbone (see #429178).
542 * Add check for valid Debian suite name to avoid breakage of sources.list
543 if someone calls grml-live with a typo in the -s option.
544 * Add exception for libewf1 and libstdc++2.10-glibc2.2 in
545 /etc/grml/fai/config/scripts/GRMLBASE/40-deborphan.
547 - add support for building squeeze based ISOs.
548 - add cronjob based on what the grml team is using at daily.grml.org
549 - use '-a' instead of '-rltD' as rsync option to sync logs
550 - use timestamp with hour, minute and second to match with FAI style
551 * /etc/grml/fai/config/hooks/updatebase.GRMLBASE: install apt configuration
552 also when updating the chroot (this happens if we have a base.tgz available
553 on fresh installations).
554 * Document usage of STOP_ON_ERROR in /etc/grml/fai/fai.conf.
555 * Really add support for genisoimage (thanks for the bugreport, Worf).
556 * Set subdirectories of $OUTPUT independent of cmdline parsing so
557 it is possible to set it via conffile as well.
558 * Validate whether the specified architecture class matches the
559 architecture (option), otherwise installation of kernel will fail.
560 * Add 'How do I deploy grml-live on a plain Debian installation' to FAQ.
561 * Build grml-live documentation with table of content.

822 * Document noautoconfig in grml-cheatcodes. Thanks to Ralf Moll!
824 - rename all etch* related scripts to lenny*
825 - adjust scripts to use "lenny" instead of "stable" for building
826 [to avoid that "etch" is used as build name but lenny is used]
827 - use "$NAME-daily-$SUITE" in functions.sh as build name so
828 identifying ISOs while running them is easier
829 * Support squeeze as valid suite name.
830 * Comment Debian/unstable in /etc/grml/fai/apt/preferences by default.

833 * Consequently drop 'Latest change' lines from all files.
834 * Support generation of sha1sum [Testing: issue622]
835 * Drop first, unnecessary APPEND line in isolinux.cfg and syslinux.cfg.
837 * Do no longer use the bootoption lang=us by default. We use it by default
838 in grml-autoconfig anyway and this shortens our /proc/cmdline.
839 * Run commands requiring network access through 'timeout 10' by default

850 Thanks to Thomas Lehmann for the bugreport!
851 * Move /etc/grml/fai/apt/preferences to /etc/grml/fai/files/etc/apt/.
852 This simplifies the directory layout a bit. Clarify its usage
853 in /etc/grml/fai/apt/important_note.txt
854 * Install all files from /etc/grml/fai/files/etc/apt. This supports
855 usage of directories like /etc/apt/apt.conf.d. Thanks for the
856 hint to Thomas Lehmann. [Closes: issue632]
857 * Replace all "sed -i 's/././' foo" calls with
858 'sed -i 's/././' foo | sponge foo' instead inside main grml-live script
859 so we don't destroy any existing symlinks. Depend on moreutils therefor.

920 * Remove mozilla-imagezoom from GRML_FULL (the "extension installed"
921 * Execute dpkg-reconfigure for localepurge with noninteractive frontend.
923 * Rework locale handling. From now on /usr/share/locale gets removed
924 by default (though /usr/share/i18n/locales won't be touched for
925 now), unless using class LOCALES. Reason: We have >70MB inside
926 /usr/share/locale on GRML_FULL, just too much to ship by default,
927 message at startup sucks).
928 * Update grml-cheatcodes.txt.
929 * Provide grml's gpg key via /etc/grml/fai/files/etc/apt/grml.key
930 so we support offline operation as well. Based on an idea by
931 Thomas Lehmann, thanks!

933 "grml $VERSION" so we propagate the according grml-name. Thanks to

1344 FAI version 3.2.3 therefor.
1345 * FAI 3.2.3 has a new log schema, adjusted grml-live accordingly.
1346 Quoting the NEWS file of FAI:
1347 - LOGDIR is now /var/log/fai/$HOSTNAME/$FAI_ACTION_date+time
1348 - LOGDIR is /tmp/fai during an installation (not dirinstall), and
1349 will be copied to the path above at the end of an installation
1350 * Log the executed FAI, squashfs and mkisofs command lines to
1351 /var/log/grml-live.log.
1352 * New option '-C <configuration_file>' for specifying a configuration
1353 file. Needs heavy testing though, because the files are updated
1354 during runtime it isn't as easy as expected to be. :-/
1355 * Support $ZERO_FAI_LOGFILE inside grml-live configuration for removing
1357 * Do not enable apt-listbugs if the binary is not available.
1359 * Add keychain package to GRML_SMALL.
1360 * Add new packages to GRML_MEDIUM:
1363 - lzma-modules-2.6.23-grml
1364 - squashfs-modules-2.6.23-grml (we build the module external now)
1365 * Add new packages to GRML_FULL:
1368 - lzma-modules-2.6.23-grml
1369 - squashfs-modules-2.6.23-grml (we build the module external now)
1370 * Support loading of squashfs module via
1371 /etc/grml/fai/live-initramfs/grml-script.init-top
1372 * Make sure we have pinning for grml-stable and grml-testing
1373 repositories via /etc/grml/fai/apt/preferences, not matter where
1374 the packages come from (web vs. local mirror/cache for example).
1375 * Remove base.tgz from chroot directory.
1376 * Do not create /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts and
1377 /etc/sysconfig/provider any longer in cleanup script.
1378 * Fix typo in bootsplash f3 (thanks, jimmy).
1379 * Switch order of 'lang=us apm=power-off' to 'apm=poweroff' in
1380 isolinyx/syslinux/grub configuration because getbootparam
1381 of grml-autoconfig requires a whitespace inside /proc/cmdline.
1382 * Support grml2ram bootoption inside isolinyx/syslinux/grub

1437 log-directory /var/log/fai/current.
1438 * Use strings instead of --help to detect support of safe-upgrade
1439 inside aptitude, otherwise it might fail due to unavailable shared libs.

1477 grml-live (0.0.7) unstable; urgency=low
1479 The "holidays? what? are you joking?!"-release.
1481 * Added FAI patches to /usr/share/grml-live/patches/ - it's
1482 recommended to apply the patches to FAI until they are accepted
1483 upstream. See Debian's BTS for more details: #444210, #447080
1485 * Support option '-u' for updating system.
1486 * Reworked buildd concept.
1487 - Now we have a seperate
1488 /usr/share/grml-live/buildd/functions.sh for generic stuff
1489 and /etc/grml/grml-buildd.conf as configuration file.
1490 - Use grml-buildd.{stdout,stderr} instead of
1491 grml-live.{stdout,stderr} as log files.
1492 - buildd/functions.sh: do not mv files if there was an error
1493 during grml-live execution
1494 - do not re-execute grml-live is the target ISO exists already
1495 * Update zsh completion - thanks to Frank Terbeck!
1496 * Set /etc/grml_version of live-system to the according value.
1498 * Support setting /etc/debian_chroot inside chroot (useful if
1499 building fails and manual interaction is needed).
1500 * Log to /var/log/grml-live.log by default now and support
1501 $ZERO_LOGFILE for cleaning up logs.
1502 * Added new grml-repository named grml-live which is intented
1503 to fix issues from Debian for grml-live builds. It is automatically
1504 activated if you are building against unstable/sid and should
1505 be used manually only if you realy know what you are doing.
1506 Notice: if something fails inside building the base chroot/
1507 debootstrap system we can't do anything via grml-live for you
1508 right now. Instead grab the base.tgz from http://daily.grml.org/
1509 * Add /usr/share/grml-live/scripts/repodiff.pl (by formorer, thx!)
1510 for comparing two repositories.
1511 * Replaced /etc/grml/fai/files/etc/apt/preferences
1512 with /etc/grml/fai/apt/preferences so grml-live repository
1513 can be used and configured at a single place.
1514 * Use apt-pinning via /etc/grml/fai/config/hooks/instsoft.GRMLBASE
1515 and drop it from /etc/grml/fai/config/scripts/GRMLBASE/33-aptsetup

1518 * Log executed grml-live command line.
1519 * Set FAI_DEBOOTSTRAP_OPTS="--exclude=dhcp-client,info"

1522 * Set shared/default-x-server and xserver-xorg/config/monitor/identifier
1523 for xserver-xorg package via debconf to work around #448863.
1524 * Use "newest" kernel only if two kernels are present in the chroot.
1525 * Set $SECONDS to unknown if $start_seconds is not set.
1526 * Log closing signs (----...) via bailout to make sure they are
1527 always set - even when exiting with an error.
1528 * Check for presence of /bin/zsh before setting default shell in
1529 /etc/grml/fai/config/scripts/GRMLBASE/21-usersetup
1530 * Check for locales/localepurge before using them in
1531 /etc/grml/fai/config/scripts/GRMLBASE/25-locales
