* s390: also exclude -s390x-tape kernels during kernel selection.
* Temporarily replace the /etc/fstab in target by a real dummy file to
closer match what debootstrap does internally. It avoids a problem
installing Lenny when the fstab contains UUIDs instead of device names.
Closes: #539744.
* Bump debhelper compatibility to version 6.

* Add STANZAS subcommand to pkgdetails, to be used by debootstrap 1.0.16.

- Never select /dev/ramzswap* (compcache) as a hibernation target.
- Check dmraid's exit code rather than parsing its output.

* Call base-installer.d hooks after running debootstrap, for consistency
with live-installer. (So, pre_install_hooks is run after bootstrap, but
before anything is installed with apt. So the name still makes a kind
of sense, if you squint..)
* Remove sources.list before running base-installer.d hooks. Otherwise,
apt-install will try to run apt, rather than queuing, and apt is not
configured yet.

* Mark the orion flavour as unusable on non-Orion systems.
[ Frans Pop ]
* hppa: change test for SMP support to use /var/numcpus which is created
by rootskel (from version 1.59); the current test does not work as it
requires the D-I kernel to have SMP support, which it hasn't.
Thanks to Grant Grundler for his suggestions.
* powerpc: correctly recognize systems with 'RS64-IV (sstar)' cpu as
powerpc64 (closes: #469030).
* Add support for PA Semi's evaluation systems (#464429). Thanks to
Olof Johansson for the patch.
* Now that changing CDs is supported, stop bind-mounting /cdrom in /target
except for hd-media installs.
* This requires that /dev is bind-mounted in /target earlier; the
installation of packages required to mount file systems is left as a
separate step.
[ Otavio Salvador ]
* Add facility to include and exclude packages from the base system by
preseeding base-installer/includes and base-installer/excludes. Adding
packages using base_include and base_include CD files still works and
the packages are added to the preseeded ones.
* Add facility to use a specific script by preseeding
base-installer/script.

* Change kernel usability tests for all arches so that by default any
postfix is allowed, but only when separated from the flavor by a hyphen.
This allows both standard postfixes (e.g. -smp) postfixes for custom built
images, and is used to support updated kernel meta packages for stable.
* mips/mipsel: allow fallback to 4kc-malta kernel for 5kc-malta.

* Restructure kernel selection to allow for preseeding. Preseeding "none"

* If we could not determine any reasonable default kernel, ask the question
at critical priority.
* Sort the kernel list in ascending order. With the improved method of
selecting a default and the fact that we no longer have different kernel
major versions, reverse sorting is no longer as important, especially as
using a descending order has its own disadvantages.

* Remove mkinitrd.conf hacking code that worked around bugs in the woody
version, not supported by this version of d-i.
[ Frans Pop ]
* Support defining multiple prefered kernel versions. This allows
base-installer to install a kernel-image meta package even if the first
preference is not available.
[ Joey Hess ]
* Force APT::Authentication::TrustCDROM to true so that apt 0.6.42 will
install from Debian CDs again.
[ Frans Pop ]
* Re-implement the use of log-output using the new version written in C.
* Remove hard-coded redirection to /var/log/messages in run-debootstrap so
that log-output in the postinst can do its work.
[ Joey Hess ]
* Remove code that munged/demunged Packages and Release filename in the
cache for debootstrap, since debootstrap no longer does that munging.
[ Frans Pop ]
* Use a cdrom: source line in apt instead of a file: source line to make
apt's TrustCDROM option actually work. Make sure sources.list is empty
before running apt-cdrom.
* Make sure that neither apt-cdrom or apt unount/mount CD-ROMs; needed to
make cdrom: source lines also work with CD images.
[ Joey Hess ]
* Display fallback warning messages as using an error template instead
of in the progress bar, since they can be arbitrarily bad. Warnings that
have a template (ie, the download retry warning) still display as progress
bar updates.
* Delete any cruft left behind by a past debootstrap run in
/target/var/lib/apt. This avoids a problem where 1) debootstrap is run
before dinstall 2) Packages file download fails and aborts the run 3)
debootstrap is re-run after dinstall, does not refresh Release file, and
fails since the new Packages file it does download has a m5sum mismatch
with the old Release file. (Ah, the joys of running d-i on dialup..)
[ Sven Luther ]
* Adapted to chrp_rs6k -> chrp_ibm migration.
[ Colin Watson ]
* Fix code to avoid -smp variants on powerpc64.
* Support configuring initramfs-tools rather than initrd-tools, and make
that the default when installing 2.6. We still use initrd-tools on hppa
and ia64, as the most current information I have indicates that
initramfs-tools doesn't work there; porters should feel free to update
this. I've left notes for where I think yaird could best be slotted in.
* Allow extra packages to be installed along with init*-tools, controlled
by base-installer/kernel/linux/extra-packages* templates. This allows
derivatives to install initramfs hooks such as usplash.

- Update arch_get_kernel_flavour() for ia64 so that it keys off of

- debootstrap (0.3.1) logs to /var/log/bootstrap.log in the target,

- Added progress and info templates for new debootstrap for downrelsig,
downmainpkgs, releasesig, validrelsig, resolvebase, resolvereq,
and checkingsizes. Did not bother with newbase, newrequired, and
redundantbase since they're more like debugging messages.
- Remove error template for notpredl, unknownloc, and interrupted, since
these are internal errors that should not happen normally (and there
are many other internal errors we do not translate).
- Add error templates for nogetrelsig and unknownrelsig.
- Remove debootstrap template for check_target and checkingsize,
which are not used by debootstrap 0.3.1 anymore.
- Improve run-debootstrap's warning handling, display warning on progress
bar. However, this is untested, since debootstrap's warning code is
a bit broken (bug filed).
- Add warning template for the only currently useful warning, for retrying
a failed download.

- Have debootstrap log to the d-i messages file.
- Change error templates to match.
- Remove downmainpkgs stuff; only used for slink deboostrapping.
- Switch over to a single, milti-stage progress bar for the entire
debootstrap run.
- Fixed typo that was preventing build with -Os.
- Remove the basesuccess note.
- Incorporated the apt setup and install steps into the same single
progress bar.
- Merged kernel-installer into base-installer so they can share a progress
bar.
- Updated to debhelper v4.
- Cleaned up the rules file.
- Remove Standards-Version, it's a udeb.
- Added some error templates left out due to the string freeze.
- Stop the progress bar when exiting on debootstrap error.
- busybox does provide uniq and sort -r now, so remove the dodgy calls to
the ones in /target.
- Move the apt-install queue flush to after kernel installation.
This way, if apt-install is used to install the kernel image and pcmcia
modules and they fail to install for some reason, and end up in the
apt-install queue, this does not result in apt-install installing them
when the kernel-image.conf is not properly set up.
- Refactored most of the code in the postinst, breaking it up into
subroutines for clarity.
- Use only one exit point for errors, and always stop the progress bar.
- apt-update is only used by this package, so inline it.
- Remove some debootstrap errors which should never appear during normal
(or abnormal) use unless d-i is very broken from the templates file, no
need to watse time and space on translations of them.

* Use the same components in debootstrap and APT.
* Two new helper programs, apt-update and apt-install.
* Try to fix CDROM installs; Make sure 'apt-get update' is executed
when installing from CD, change the APT source protocol from file:
to copy:, and split 'apt-get install' into two parts, one
downloading outside /target/, and one installing within /target/.
* Install all pachages with DEBIAN_FRONTEND=noninteractive, and make
sure /target/proc/ is available during install.
* Make sure initrd-tools is installed before we modify its
configuration.
* Add package queue for extra packages to install into /target/.
Should apt-install move into rootskel or another package?
* Redirect stderr to /var/log/messages when installing packages.
* Make debug output easier to read.
