Description: 
 aboot      - Linux bootloader for the SRM console
 aboot-base - base files required for bootable media on Linux/Alpha
Changes: 
 aboot (0.9b-3+etchnhalf.1) stable; urgency=low
 .
   * Fix unrepreducible build issue.
     Though etch's aboot successfully built on etch/alpha, it was not producing
     the same set of binaries - i.e., it was building aboot-cross instead of
     aboot. This was corrected in 1.0~pre20040408-1 with the following change,
     originally from Steve Langasek:
     - Update debian/rules to use DEB_HOST_GNU_CPU instead of
       DEB_HOST_GNU_TYPE, to fix a misbuild in unstable.
   * Correcting the above creates two new FTBFS issues, likely due to the
     use of the newer gcc in etch (the aboot that shipped with etch was the
     same binary package that shipped in sarge):
     - error: conflicting types for 'dispatch'
       - Drop duplicate definition of dispatch() from cons.c
     - net.c: In function 'load_kernel':
       net.c:129: error: invalid lvalue in assignment
       - Change assignment to move casting to rvalue
   * Add support for booting >= 2.6.23 kernels, needed for etchnhalf. This
     was corrected in 1.0~pre20040408-1 with the following change, originally
     from Steve Langasek:
     - Update bootlx to ignore ELF header sections not of type PT_LOAD when
       loading the kernel, so that the new PT_NOTE sections in 2.6.23rc1 and
       above don't cause load failures.  Thanks to Richard Henderson for the
       patch.
