1 grml-live (0.9.21) UNRELEASED; urgency=low
4 * Split the single /etc/apt/sources.list file into structured files
5 in /etc/apt/sources.list.d/. We are using:
6 - /etc/apt/sources.list.d/grml.list for all grml related repositories
7 - /etc/apt/sources.list.d/debian.list for official Debian repositories
9 * When adjusting postfix configuration: make sure to execute newaliases
10 command after adjusting configuration, otherwise the old hostname
11 will be left inside /etc/aliases.db.
12 * grml_cleanup_chroot: get rid of /etc/lvm/cache/.cache and
13 /etc/lvm/backup/main as well.
14 * grml_cleanup_chroot: drop the /usr/include/linux checks.
15 * 90-update-alternatives: use wm-ng as default x-window-manager.
17 * Provide information about grml-live version and Debian/suite
18 through /etc/grml_live_version in the generated ISO. [Closes: issue637]
19 * grml-cheatcodes: document bootoption 'nostartx'.
20 * Check for existence of $target/etc/apt/important_note.txt before
22 * buildd: drop GRML_LIVE_ARCH but instead use default architecture
24 * Set UTC=no by default. See http://bts.grml.org/grml/issue708 for
25 details. Credits to Ulrich Zehl for debugging. [Closes: issue708]
26 * Improve check for architecture which should be build: if not specified
27 assume a safe default and check this one.
28 * Unify variable default checks, always assume sane defaults.
29 * Always run $SUITE checks, so grml-live repository is used also
30 if suite isn't manually specified.
31 * New graphical boot menu. Can be disabled via ISOLINUX_METHOD=console.
32 * New configuration variables DISTRI_NAME and DISTRI_INFO which should allow
33 easier rebranding of grml-live based distributions.
34 * Detect existence of stage 'boot' using boot/isolinux so grml-live
35 executed with options '-q -B' and empty boot/isolinux works as well.
36 * Introduce $NO_WINDOWS_BINARIES which replaces $WINDOWS_BINARIES so
37 we can improve sanity checks and easify configuration.
38 * Support installation of local files (not being part of any Debian package)
39 through $CHROOT_INSTALL.
40 * Integrate memtest86+ binary so we don't ship old versions from
41 the build host. [Closes: issue717]
42 * Check whether rebuild of ISO is needed even though the ISO exists already.
44 * Display path of FAI logs during execution of grml-live.
45 * Bump to Standard-Version 3.8.3 (no further changes).
46 * Improve long description.
47 * Apply patch from Marc Haber (thanks!) for new grml cheatcodes
48 (new DCS directory feature).
49 * Drop package grml-saveconfig as it is replaced with recent versions
51 * Replace all references to ftp.de.debian.org with cdn.debian.org,
52 see http://wiki.debian.org/DebianGeoMirror for details.
53 Thanks for the idea, Marc Haber!
54 * Software related changes:
55 - Add git-email to GRML_FULL (thanks to Joerg Woelke for mentioning).
56 - Add aesfix, aeskeyfind, bios-memimage, chaosreader, ext3grep, fatback,
57 myrescue, pipebench, safecopy, shed and xmount to GRML_FORENSIC. The
58 packages are either already available or should be available soon.
59 - Add scsitools to GRML_MEDIUM.
60 - Drop hydra from GRML_FULL (the license is not a clean GPL one).
61 - Drop bar from GRML_FULL (no release since 2007, consider using
62 for example cpipe instead).
63 - Drop icedax from GRML_FULL (we have schilyutils available).
66 * Update MirOS bsd4grml to 20090812 and sync menu.lst, grub.cfg,
67 isolinux.cfg, syslinux.cfg with each other; provide a fallback
68 way to boot MirOS bsd4grml from both GRUB versions using modules.
69 * Fix going back to GNU GRUB from ldbsd.com via alternative boot method;
70 while here, add the grml release info to the appropriate file.

80 - Drop dviutils ("Note: selecting "texlive-extra-utils" instead of the
81 virtual package "dviutils" -> non-existing package)

84 - Drop gdk-imlib11 (see #522810).

87 nowadays, see #533275).
88 - Drop libpam-pwgen (see #511613).
89 - Drop rgpsp (owner set to Debian QA Group and package doesn't seem
90 to be that important for grml).
91 - Drop windowlab (see #410618).
92 - Drop workbone (see #429178).
93 * Add check for valid Debian suite name to avoid breakage of sources.list
94 if someone calls grml-live with a typo in the -s option.
95 * Add exception for libewf1 and libstdc++2.10-glibc2.2 in
96 /etc/grml/fai/config/scripts/GRMLBASE/40-deborphan.

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

375 - rename all etch* related scripts to lenny*
376 - adjust scripts to use "lenny" instead of "stable" for building
377 [to avoid that "etch" is used as build name but lenny is used]
378 - use "$NAME-daily-$SUITE" in functions.sh as build name so
379 identifying ISOs while running them is easier
380 * Support squeeze as valid suite name.
381 * Comment Debian/unstable in /etc/grml/fai/apt/preferences by default.

386 * Drop first, unnecessary APPEND line in isolinux.cfg and syslinux.cfg.
388 * Do no longer use the bootoption lang=us by default. We use it by default
389 in grml-autoconfig anyway and this shortens our /proc/cmdline.
390 * Run commands requiring network access through 'timeout 10' by default

403 This simplifies the directory layout a bit. Clarify its usage
404 in /etc/grml/fai/apt/important_note.txt

406 usage of directories like /etc/apt/apt.conf.d. Thanks for the

1028 grml-live (0.0.7) unstable; urgency=low
1030 The "holidays? what? are you joking?!"-release.
1032 * Added FAI patches to /usr/share/grml-live/patches/ - it's
1033 recommended to apply the patches to FAI until they are accepted
1034 upstream. See Debian's BTS for more details: #444210, #447080
1036 * Support option '-u' for updating system.
1037 * Reworked buildd concept.
1038 - Now we have a seperate
1039 /usr/share/grml-live/buildd/functions.sh for generic stuff
1040 and /etc/grml/grml-buildd.conf as configuration file.
1041 - Use grml-buildd.{stdout,stderr} instead of
1042 grml-live.{stdout,stderr} as log files.
1043 - buildd/functions.sh: do not mv files if there was an error
1044 during grml-live execution
1045 - do not re-execute grml-live is the target ISO exists already
1046 * Update zsh completion - thanks to Frank Terbeck!
1047 * Set /etc/grml_version of live-system to the according value.
1049 * Support setting /etc/debian_chroot inside chroot (useful if
1050 building fails and manual interaction is needed).
1051 * Log to /var/log/grml-live.log by default now and support
1052 $ZERO_LOGFILE for cleaning up logs.
1053 * Added new grml-repository named grml-live which is intented
1054 to fix issues from Debian for grml-live builds. It is automatically
1055 activated if you are building against unstable/sid and should
1056 be used manually only if you realy know what you are doing.
1057 Notice: if something fails inside building the base chroot/
1058 debootstrap system we can't do anything via grml-live for you
1059 right now. Instead grab the base.tgz from http://daily.grml.org/
1060 * Add /usr/share/grml-live/scripts/repodiff.pl (by formorer, thx!)
1061 for comparing two repositories.
1062 * Replaced /etc/grml/fai/files/etc/apt/preferences
1063 with /etc/grml/fai/apt/preferences so grml-live repository
1064 can be used and configured at a single place.
1065 * Use apt-pinning via /etc/grml/fai/config/hooks/instsoft.GRMLBASE

1069 * Log executed grml-live command line.
1070 * Set FAI_DEBOOTSTRAP_OPTS="--exclude=dhcp-client,info"

1074 for xserver-xorg package via debconf to work around #448863.
1075 * Use "newest" kernel only if two kernels are present in the chroot.
1076 * Set $SECONDS to unknown if $start_seconds is not set.
1077 * Log closing signs (----...) via bailout to make sure they are
1078 always set - even when exiting with an error.
1079 * Check for presence of /bin/zsh before setting default shell in
1080 /etc/grml/fai/config/scripts/GRMLBASE/21-usersetup
1081 * Check for locales/localepurge before using them in
1082 /etc/grml/fai/config/scripts/GRMLBASE/25-locales

1145 This has been integrated in a new class named "RELEASE".
1146 * Added support for new kernel version 2.6.23-grml to
