19 fai (3.2.10) unstable; urgency=low
20
21 * add texlive-latex-recommended and texlive-fonts-recommended to
22 build-depends-indep which fixes FTBFS (closes: #497683),
23 add cfengine2 as recommends to fai-client (closes: #442843),
24 remove mknbi from fai-docs recommends
25 * Init.pm: really add important bugfix (494784) that was only fixed in svn
26 but not in 3.2.9 upload (closes: #494784), fix typo in variable name
27 * Volume.pm: ignore output line of parted containing "Model:"
28 (closes: #497066)
29 * disk-info: fix bashism (closes: #498023),
30 add pattern for KVM devices like /dev/vd[abcd]X (closes: #494426)
31 * Makefile,VERSION: remove variable KERNELVERSION, because it's unused since
32 3.2 (closes: #494699)
33 * fai-cd: do not redirect stderr to /dev/null when calling find_fai_data,
34 otherwise we do not get any errors when the grub call fails

36 (closes: #439101),

38 check if list of cdrom devices is empty (closes: #498052)

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

43 page (it only works with fai-kernels which were removed from lenny)

48 info, update location of RUNNING_FROM_FAICD

50 do not propose make-fai-nfsroot -r (closes: #481111),
51 do reference NEWS.Debian (closes: #452760)
52 * ftar.8: minor fix (closes: #481528), update example used
53 * fcopy.8: minor fix (closes: #419787)

56 * fai-cd.8: add usage example, add warning that all data on USB stick
57 may be destroyed

63 - names
64 - package_config/GNOME: make gnome example smaller
65 - 10-misc: remove tune2fs call, now done by new partition tool
66 - use lenny in FAISERVER class
