24 fai (3.2.10) unstable; urgency=low
25
26 * add texlive-latex-recommended and texlive-fonts-recommended to
27 build-depends-indep which fixes FTBFS (closes: #497683),
28 add cfengine2 as recommends to fai-client (closes: #442843),
29 remove mknbi from fai-docs recommends
30 * Init.pm: really add important bugfix (494784) that was only fixed in svn
31 but not in 3.2.9 upload (closes: #494784), fix typo in variable name
32 * Volume.pm: ignore output line of parted containing "Model:"
33 (closes: #497066)
34 * disk-info: fix bashism (closes: #498023),
35 add pattern for KVM devices like /dev/vd[abcd]X (closes: #494426)
36 * Makefile,VERSION: remove variable KERNELVERSION, because it's unused since
37 3.2 (closes: #494699)
38 * fai-cd: do not redirect stderr to /dev/null when calling find_fai_data,
39 otherwise we do not get any errors when the grub call fails

41 (closes: #439101),
42 do not access /proc/uptime if /proc is not mounted (closes: #496234),
43 check if list of cdrom devices is empty (closes: #498052)

45 well and /var/run/fai is probably the least critical place
46 (closes: #494423)
47 * remove old, unsupported and broken script make-fai-bootfloppy and its man
48 page (it only works with fai-kernels which were removed from lenny)
49 (closes: #452375, #400373, #305363)
50 * remove old and unused util/tlink and the information about it from the

53 info, update location of RUNNING_FROM_FAICD

55 do not propose make-fai-nfsroot -r (closes: #481111),
56 do reference NEWS.Debian (closes: #452760)
57 * ftar.8: minor fix (closes: #481528), update example used
58 * fcopy.8: minor fix (closes: #419787)

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

68 - names
69 - package_config/GNOME: make gnome example smaller
70 - 10-misc: remove tune2fs call, now done by new partition tool
71 - use lenny in FAISERVER class
