minor fix
1 fai (3.2.10~beta8) unstable; urgency=low
2
3 * add texlive-latex-recommended and texlive-fonts-recommended to
4 build-depends-indep which fixes FTBFS (closes: #497683),
5 add cfengine2 as recommends to fai-client (closes: #442843),
6 remove mknbi from fai-docs recommends
7 * Init.pm: really add important bugfix (494784) that was only fixed in svn
8 but not in 3.2.9 upload (closes: #494784), fix typo in variable name
9 * Volume.pm: ignore output line of parted containing "Model:"
10 (closes: #497066)
11 * Makefile,VERSION: remove variable KERNELVERSION, because it's unused since
12 3.2 (closes: #494699)
13 * fai-cd: do not redirect stderr to /dev/null when calling find_fai_data,
14 otherwise we do not get any errors when the grub call fails

16 (closes: #439101),

30 info, update location of RUNNING_FROM_FAICD
31 * fai-guide.sgml: minor documentation fix (closes: #473106),
32 do not propose make-fai-nfsroot -r (closes: #481111),
33 do reference NEWS.Debian (closes: #452760)

35 * fcopy.8: minor fix (closes: #419787)
36 * fai-statoverride.8: add man page for fai-statoverride.8 (closes: #358967)
37 * setup-storage.8: document usage of USE_SETUP_STORAGE; some typo fixes
38 * fai-cd.8: add usage example, add warning that all data on USB stick
39 may be destroyed
40 * setup-storage.8: Properly escape \ in literal environments (thanks lintian)
41 * changes to the example classes:
42 - use new partition tool in simple examples
43 - remove class SETUPSTORAGE
44 - package_config/*: remove non-existing packages, change some package
45 - names
46 - package_config/GNOME: make gnome example smaller
47 - 10-misc: remove tune2fs call, now done by new partition tool
48 - use lenny in FAISERVER class
49 - remove empty directory /etc/X11 to make lintian happy
50 * update to standards version 3.8.0, no changes needed
51 * update the package description (closes: #496113)
52 * rules: Don't ignore errors from make clean
