Changes: 
 lessdisks (0.5.3cvs.20040906-6) unstable; urgency=high
 .
   * Dependencies cleanup (mostly adopted from upstream CVS):
     + Have lessdisks and lessdisks-terminal depend on adduser. Closes:
       bug#274302 (thanks to Frank Lichtenheld <djpig@debian.org>).
     + Drop suggesting nfs-server when already depending on it.
     + Drop suggesting khttpd. Closes: bug#274328.
     + Lower lessdisks-xterminal dependency on x-window-manager,
       x-terminal-emulator and xdialog to a suggestion.
     + Prefer discover1-data over discover-data (as in upstream CVS).
     + Move httpd recommendation from lessdisks-xterminal to lessdisks-
       terminal were it belongs.
     + Have lessdisks-terminal recommend kernel-image-netbootable.
     + Correct suggested kernel name for powerpc arch.
     + Have lessdisks suggest various daemons for protocols used for
       netbooting.
     + Have kernel-image-netbootable and lessdisks-terminal suggest
       various bootloader and initrd-generation tools.
   * Copyright and licensing corrections:
     + Add copyright and licensing info of mkinitrd/conf/network_script
       (important: it was written by me :-) ).
   * Cleanup and a few additions to TODO, and rename to TODO.Debian to
     actually get installed.
   * Descriptions cleanup (mostly adopted from upstream CVS):
     + Raise suggested download and install sizes in a long description.
     + Remove double Description line.
     + Rewrite descriptions for initrd-netboot-tools and kernel-image-
       netbootable - hopefully easier to understand now.
   * Add sanity check in initrd-netboot-tools (patch 008) to make it
     safer to use on non-netbooting machines, and relax long dewcription
     (or actually the other way around: change description, thereby
     provoking upstream to doublecheck the code ;-)  ). Closes:
     bug#277144 (thanks to Vagrant).
   * Improve debconf descriptions:
     + Remove punctuation on short descriptions (they are headlines, not
       paragraphs).
     + Rewrite questions in short descriptions into factual headlines.
     + Consistently use "list" for space-delimited, repetitive entries,
        and "enter" for single items.
     + Consistently Capitalize first letter.
     + Capitalize Lessdisks.
     + Add missing punctuation to long descriptions (they are paragraphs,
       not headlines).
     + Correct grammatical errors.
     + Use the term "X11" instead of just "X".
     + Talk about handling non-customized terminals (not first run): If
       successful the terminal may never need customization.
     + Talk about loading X11 environment (not starting X11).
     + Introductions first, questions last.
     + Avoid getting personal: to be installed (not yu will install).
     + Avoid references to options ("copy_dirs" is hidden by debconf).
     + Add intro to the (theoretical, at least) big flexibility of
       lessdisk: hardware architecture and distribution are defaults only
       - more can be setup simultanously on same lessdisks server.
     + Request a URL only when one is expected (lessdisks archive is not
       a URL!).
     + Drop referring to manpage when we don't even know the exact
       command (Etherboot images are created by either mknbi or mkelf).
     + Rewrite phrases expecting entries being read in a specific order.
     + Add double linebreaks were linebreaks were intended.
     + Say "please" consistently (silly englishmen...).
     + Add examples and/or clarifications to freeform strings were
       possible values are not obvious (imagine changing the value,
       having the system break, and not knowing what is then sane).
     + Exlicitly mention proxy URL as optional.
     + Update locales to reflect the above changes (were possible).
     + Add german (de) locale (thanks to Wolfgang Schweer
       <schweer@cityweb.de>).
     + Add french (fr) locale.
     + Unfuzz danish (da) locale.
     + Thanks to Wolfgang Schweer <schweer@cityweb.de> for help polishing
       the above description changes.
   * Lower priority from optional to extra for all packages. Closes:
     bug#274324 (thanks to Vagrant Cascadian <vagrant@freegeek.org>).
   * Correct loading kernel module i810 (patch 002). Closes: bug#272459.
   * Drop initrd-netboot-tools in default list of packages to install (it
     gets pulled in as part of a hackish kernel-image install).
   * Improve quoting, and other minor tweaks from CVS (patch 003-006).
   * Add manpages for lessdisks. Closes: bug#277850 (thanks to Vagrant).
   * This upload supersedes planned NMU, so closes: bug#274302.
   * Install lessdisks-configure only as example script, and hack
     lessdisks-install to not mention it (patch 206).
   * Add GaugeBox corrections to easydialog (patch 007). Closes:
     bug#276367 (thanks to Vagrant).
   * Separate buildinfo rule in cdbs snippet (and also include commented
     out snippet for redirecting bugreports of unofficial builds).
   * Add watch file.
   * Add README.Debian to initrd-netboot-tools, containing suggestions
     for untested hardware platforms, as suggested by upstream in
     bug#270409.
   * Include conffile changes in 0.5.3cvs.20040906-3 (patch 204).
   * Remove all traces of swiftx from lessdisks-configure (patch 205).
   * Add de4x5 and forcedeth NICs to initrd-netboot-tools (patch 001).
   * Add Linux kernels tested by upstream to work with alpha.
   * Use type-handling for kernel-image-netbootable arch-dependencies:
     Keep dependencies of kernel-image-netbootable tight for archs known
     working with initrd-netboot-tools (i386 and alpha), but relax them
     on remaining archs to make it installable on all archs (and ease
     testing and getting more archs supported officially!).
   * Set urgency=high as this fixes an rc bug and generally is considered
     A Good Thing(tm) for sarge.
   * Changelog entries of unofficial releases (including -4 and -5)
     merged.
