7 fai (3.2.10) unstable; urgency=low
8
9 * add texlive-latex-recommended and texlive-fonts-recommended to
10 build-depends-indep which fixes FTBFS (closes: #497683),
11 add cfengine2 as recommends to fai-client (closes: #442843),
12 remove mknbi from fai-docs recommends
13 * Init.pm: really add important bugfix (494784) that was only fixed in svn
14 but not in 3.2.9 upload (closes: #494784), fix typo in variable name
15 * Volume.pm: ignore output line of parted containing "Model:"
16 (closes: #497066)
17 * disk-info: fix bashism (closes: #498023),
18 add pattern for KVM devices like /dev/vd[abcd]X (closes: #494426)

20 3.2 (closes: #494699)
21 * fai-cd: do not redirect stderr to /dev/null when calling find_fai_data,

24 (closes: #439101),

28 well and /var/run/fai is probably the least critical place
29 (closes: #494423)

45 may be destroyed
