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

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

143 * Add gnupg2 to GRML_FULL. Thanks to Walter Haidinger.
144 * Drop all references to xserver-xorg-input-elo2300 (see #527699).
145 * Cleanups in GRML_FULL:
146 - Drop cheops (depends on libgtk1.2).
147 - Drop dviutils ("Note: selecting "texlive-extra-utils" instead of the
148 virtual package "dviutils" -> non-existing package)
149 - Drop ext2resize (see #400797).
150 - Drop fcoretools (see #534542).
151 - Drop gdk-imlib11 (see #522810).
152 - Drop gqcam (still depends on gtk1.2).
153 - Drop hping2 (hping3 is available in all relevant Debian releases
154 nowadays, see #533275).
155 - Drop libpam-pwgen (see #511613).
156 - Drop rgpsp (owner set to Debian QA Group and package doesn't seem
157 to be that important for grml).
158 - Drop windowlab (see #410618).
159 - Drop workbone (see #429178).
160 * Add check for valid Debian suite name to avoid breakage of sources.list
161 if someone calls grml-live with a typo in the -s option.

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

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

542 by default (though /usr/share/i18n/locales won't be touched for
543 now), unless using class LOCALES. Reason: We have >70MB inside
544 /usr/share/locale on GRML_FULL, just too much to ship by default,
545 message at startup sucks).

547 * Provide grml's gpg key via /etc/grml/fai/files/etc/apt/grml.key
548 so we support offline operation as well. Based on an idea by
549 Thomas Lehmann, thanks!
550 * Generate ISO with volume label "${GRML_NAME} ${VERSION}" instead of

962 FAI version 3.2.3 therefor.

964 Quoting the NEWS file of FAI:
965 - LOGDIR is now /var/log/fai/$HOSTNAME/$FAI_ACTION_date+time

1097 The "holidays? what? are you joking?!"-release.
1099 * Added FAI patches to /usr/share/grml-live/patches/ - it's
1100 recommended to apply the patches to FAI until they are accepted
1101 upstream. See Debian's BTS for more details: #444210, #447080
1103 * Support option '-u' for updating system.
1104 * Reworked buildd concept.

1106 /usr/share/grml-live/buildd/functions.sh for generic stuff
1107 and /etc/grml/grml-buildd.conf as configuration file.
1108 - Use grml-buildd.{stdout,stderr} instead of
1109 grml-live.{stdout,stderr} as log files.
1110 - buildd/functions.sh: do not mv files if there was an error
1111 during grml-live execution

1119 $ZERO_LOGFILE for cleaning up logs.
1120 * Added new grml-repository named grml-live which is intented
1121 to fix issues from Debian for grml-live builds. It is automatically
1122 activated if you are building against unstable/sid and should
1123 be used manually only if you realy know what you are doing.
1124 Notice: if something fails inside building the base chroot/
1125 debootstrap system we can't do anything via grml-live for you
1126 right now. Instead grab the base.tgz from http://daily.grml.org/
1127 * Add /usr/share/grml-live/scripts/repodiff.pl (by formorer, thx!)
1128 for comparing two repositories.

1141 for xserver-xorg package via debconf to work around #448863.
1142 * Use "newest" kernel only if two kernels are present in the chroot.
1143 * Set $SECONDS to unknown if $start_seconds is not set.
1144 * Log closing signs (----...) via bailout to make sure they are
1145 always set - even when exiting with an error.
