-base-files (9.4) unstable; urgency=medium

-base-files (9.3) unstable; urgency=medium
-
-  * Change /usr/share/base-files/dot.profile (the default /root/.profile)
-    to not fail with new mesg behaviour in stretch. Closes: #794727.
-  * Add extra code in postinst so that people who never modified
-    their /root/.profile from jessie get the fixed version. This is
-    done by the update_to_current_default() function, which is now
-    more general and allows updating files not in /etc.
-  * While we are at it, modify install_from_default() function so that
-    it's called in the same simplified way as update_to_current_default().

-  * Changed HOME_URL and SUPPORT_URL is os-release from http to https,
-    as those are the preferred URLs now.

-
-base-files (8) unstable; urgency=low
-
-  * Release for jessie as stable:
-  - Use "8" as version in /etc/issue and /etc/issue.net. As usual, this
-    is never expected to change once that jessie is released as Debian 8.
-  - Use 8.0 as version in /etc/debian_version. As usual, this is expected
-    to change at every point release.
-  - Changed PRETTY_NAME in /usr/lib/os-release, adding 8 as version number
-    and "(jessie)" as codename. Added also VERSION_ID and VERSION.
-    This file, /usr/lib/os-release, is not expected to change either.
-  - Updated README (jessie -> stretch).
-  * Packages are not expected to rely on the contents of any of these
-    files, but if they do, they might better break now while we can still
-    fix them.

-base-files (7.10) unstable; urgency=low
-
-  * Dropped "chown root:root" lines in postinst, as they are
-    completely redundant. The postinst script is run by root.
-    This might also help as a workaround for Bug#766459.

- -- Santiago Vila <sanvila@debian.org>  Mon, 27 Oct 2014 13:35:32 +0100
-
-base-files (7.9) unstable; urgency=low
-
-  * The change introduced in version 7.7 regarding /mnt seems to break
-    the ability of debootstrap currently in wheezy to create a sid chroot.
-    The case of initial install of /mnt is already handled by postinst line
-    "install_directory mnt 755 root" inside the big "if" block that
-    creates a bunch of other things, so we can restrict re-creating the /mnt
-    directory on upgrades to the case when we are really upgrading.
-    Therefore, the code is moved to the same "if" block where /etc/profile
-    and /etc/nsswitch.conf are upgraded to their new defaults when unchanged.
-    This might help as a workaround for Bug#766459.

-
-base-files (7.8) unstable; urgency=low
-
-  * The /etc/profile.d mechanism may be used to override PS1 setting
-    in /etc/bash.bashrc, which is particularly nice because there is
-    no need to modify /etc/profile or /etc/bash.bashrc for that,
-    but this is no longer possible if /etc/profile.d is sourced
-    before /etc/bash.bashrc. Therefore, /etc/profile.d is sourced
-    after /etc/bash.bashrc again. Closes: #766351.

-
-base-files (7.7) unstable; urgency=low
-
-  * Updated FAQ to explain that only /etc/debian_version is updated at
-    every point release, using Debian 8.x as an example, to be read by
-    users of jessie during its lifetime as stable. Closes: #621757.
-  * Changed default /etc/profile to source /etc/bash.bashrc after
-    processing profile.d stuff, not before. Closes: #698479.
-  * Drop comment lines about umask in /etc/profile, as it has been
-    there for enough time for everybody to take note.
-  * The directory /mnt is not included inside base-files.deb anymore.
-    Instead, it is created by postinst the very first time base-files
-    is installed (by debootstrap), or when upgrading from an earlier
-    base-files version. This should make the usual upgrade at every point
-    release to work even if /mnt is a stale mount point. Closes: #763405.

-base-files (7.6) unstable; urgency=low
-
-  * By default, when the computer is booting, green and red colors are used
-    to signal that a service started successfully, or that it did not.
-    In this context, trying to use colors for something else might be
-    misleading or even confusing. For this reason, I'm dropping
-    ANSI_COLOR from /usr/lib/os-release. Closes: #758246.
-  * Clarified in the copyright file that the Artistic License currently
-    in common-licenses is actually the one coming from Perl. Closes: #764553.

-
-base-files (7.5) unstable; urgency=medium
-
-  * Made /etc/os-release symlink to be relative, as an absolute symlink
-    seems to break boot when using a dracut initrd. Thanks to Daniel Schaal
-    for the report. Closes: #755394.
-

-
-base-files (7.4) unstable; urgency=medium
-
-  * Updated FAQ to match current policy wording about common-licenses.
-    Thanks to Gioele Barabucci for the report. Closes: #723195.
-  * Moved /etc/os-release to /usr/lib/os-release. Put a symlink pointing to
-    the new place. Thanks to Marco d'Itri for the report. Closes: #753658.
-  * Changed BUG_REPORT_URL in os-release to https, as the BTS has moved.
-    Thanks to Martin Zobel-Helas for the report. Closes: #754455.

-base-files (7.3) unstable; urgency=medium
-
-  * Added gshadow entry to default /etc/nsswitch.conf. Closes: #699090.
-  * Update /etc/nsswitch.conf if not modified by the user. Closes: #716786.
-  * Added nsswitch.conf.md5sums which works exactly like profile.md5sums.
-  * Changed debian/check-etc-profile-md5sum to debian/check-md5sum-etc.
-    This is now used twice in debian/rules, for profile and nsswitch.conf.
-  * Build package with -Zgzip to ease bootstrapping. Closes: #740278.
-  * Reformat paragraph in previous changelog to avoid too long lines.
-  * Added build-arch and build-indep targets to debian/rules.
-  * Standards-Version: 3.9.5 (no special changes for this).

-base-files (7.2) unstable; urgency=medium

- -- Santiago Vila <sanvila@debian.org>  Sun, 05 May 2013 18:19:00 +0200
-
-base-files (7.1) unstable; urgency=low
-
-  * Added Multi-Arch: foreign. This is needed even if base-files is
-    "Essential: yes" because there are quite a number of packages
-    having versioned dependencies on it. Closes: #695863.
-
- -- Santiago Vila <sanvila@debian.org>  Fri, 14 Dec 2012 13:55:36 +0100
-
-base-files (7.0) unstable; urgency=low
-
-  * Oops. Even if the Breaks on sendfile does not help APT to decide about
-    the configuration order, removing the breaks is wrong, because then it is
-    possible to upgrade base-files and not sendfile, which would effectively
-    break sendfile. Readded Breaks on sendfile.

- -- Santiago Vila <sanvila@debian.org>  Wed, 12 Dec 2012 13:05:12 +0100
-
-base-files (7) unstable; urgency=low
-
-  * Added 89126d8bba3325594e1539bcc97847f3 to the list of /etc/profile
-    md5sums which are ok to be replaced by the current default version to
-    help sendfile to fix its /etc/profile modification bug in a single
-    upgrade (instead of waiting for the next point release). Closes: #689835.
-    Drop "unmodified" word in postinst, as it may not always be true.
-  * Dropped versioned Breaks on sendfile, as it had no effect.
-  * Changed debian_version, issue, issue.net and os-release to read "7.0".
-    Added also "(wheezy)" in VERSION and PRETTY_NAME.
-  * Added VERSION and VERSION_ID to /etc/os-release, for release as stable.
-    Please remember: Applications should not rely on these fields to be set.
-  * Updated README (wheezy -> jessie).

-base-files (6.12) unstable; urgency=low
-
-  * Added HOME_URL, SUPPORT_URL and BUG_REPORT_URL to /etc/os-release.
-    Reported by Raphaël Hertzog. Closes: #681480.
-  * Added Breaks: sendfile (<< version in squeeze) to help sendfile bug
-    regarding improper modification of /etc/profile to be fixed faster.
-    Reported by Andreas Beckmann. Closes: #689835.
-  * Make /var/run and /var/lock absolute again.
-    Reported by Roger Leigh. Closes: #690345.

-
-base-files (6.11) unstable; urgency=medium
-
-  * Create /etc/motd instead of /etc/motd.tail, with same default contents,
-    as initscripts is now using /etc/motd again as a real file.
-
- -- Santiago Vila <sanvila@debian.org>  Sun, 17 Jun 2012 14:14:44 +0200
-
-base-files (6.10) unstable; urgency=low
-
-  * Record md5sums of unmodified /etc/profile versions so that we can
-    upgrade it automatically, as it's done in Ubuntu.
-  * In the initial install, create /etc/motd.tail instead of /etc/motd,
-    as /etc/motd is converted to a symlink by initscripts and /etc/motd.tail
-    is since a long time the master copy to which the output of uname is added.
-    Remove postinst code which tries to update /etc/motd, as it does no longer
-    work and the file has not changed in a lot of time. Will add code to
-    update /etc/motd.tail based on md5sum if it ever changes in a future.
-  * Implement proposed transition plan for group staff in /usr/local.
-    The file /etc/staff-group-for-usr-local is now created on upgrades
-    from releases before 6.10 and (for now) also on initial install.
-  * Removed reference to /etc/nsswitch.conf in extended description, as
-    the file is being moved to libc-bin.

-base-files (6.9) unstable; urgency=low
-
-  * We can't make /etc/profile a conffile without triggering a piuparts
-    check which is considered to be serious. Sorry, /etc/profile
-    will be handled as before for now. Closes: #673767.

-
-base-files (6.8) unstable; urgency=low
-
-  * Added /etc/os-release. Closes: #659853. Note: for stable releases
-    this file will look like it's suggested in the bug report above.
-    Also, like /etc/debian_version, this file should only be considered
-    meaningful for stable releases, which testing and unstable are not.
-  * By popular demand, make /etc/profile a conffile. Closes: #668871.
-  * Added /sys for all systems but the Hurd. Closes: #670091.
-  * Added /proc for the Hurd, as it's already being used.
-  * Added a lintian override for /root being 700.

-base-files (6.7) unstable; urgency=low
-
-  * Switch to "compat" again in default /etc/nsswitch.conf. It is not
-    obsolete and it should not go away. Closes: #651356.
-    Thanks a lot to Petter Reinholdtsen.

-
-base-files (6.6) unstable; urgency=low
-
-  * Switch to "files" instead of "compat" in default /etc/nsswitch.conf.
-    That was only useful for libc5. The new default will only take
-    effect for new installs. Thanks to Roger Leigh. Closes: #651356.
-  * Reword the very first question in base-files FAQ. Closes: #622200.
-  * When migrating /var/run and /var/lock, create relative symlinks
-    instead of absolute ones. Useful for chroots. Closes: #652301.

-
-base-files (6.4) unstable; urgency=low
-
-  * Added /run. Closes: #620157.
-  * On new installs:
-    - Create /run/lock (debian-installer will remove it but this will
-    ensure that it exists even on chroot environments).
-    - Symlink /var/run to /run.
-    - Symlink /var/lock to /run/lock.
-  * On upgraded systems, initscripts will handle the transition to /run.
-  * Added "Breaks: initscripts << (2.88dsf-13.3)" to ensure that initscripts
-    is upgraded first, as otherwise udev would break.
-  * Thanks a lot to Roger Leigh.

-  * Dropped /run until everything else is ready for it. In particular,
-    udev should not blindly assume that it works just because it exists.

-
-base-files (5.10) unstable; urgency=medium
-
-  * Changed postinst to not reset /var/run/utmp permissions on every upgrade.
-    It is definitely not base-files business to change the permissions of
-    an already existing /var/run/utmp, as the system admin might have
-    changed them on purpose after the file was created. Closes: #601746.

-
-base-files (5.9) unstable; urgency=medium
-
-  * Changed /etc/profile so that it defines PATH again. Closes: #571086.
-    We will have plenty of time to discuss about this after the release
-    of squeeze, but for now, this is the safe thing to do.

-base-files (5.8) unstable; urgency=low

-  * Ordinary user accounts start at UID 1000 by default, but they also
-    end at 29999 by default. Modified default /etc/profile accordingly.

-
-base-files (5.5) unstable; urgency=low
-
-  * Changed default /etc/profile so that the new umask of 002 is only
-    used for ordinary user accounts, which, according to policy, start
-    at uid 1000 by default.
-
- -- Santiago Vila <sanvila@debian.org>  Wed, 19 May 2010 18:57:10 +0200
-
-base-files (5.4) unstable; urgency=low
-
-  * Changed umask in default /etc/profile to 002, which has a little bit
-    more sense than 022 on systems like Debian having User Private Groups.
-    As usual for /etc/profile, only new installs will have the new default,
-    so nobody will be surprised by this on upgrades. Hopefully, this change
-    will be documented in the release notes for squeeze as well, for users
-    who install squeeze from scratch. Closes: #248140, #581434.

-    Package maintainers: Please don't use profile.d if you can avoid it,

-    to get reasonable defaults".

-base-files (5.2) unstable; urgency=low

-  * Added question in FAQ to document the fact that some configuration

-  * Changed default /usr/src to be root:root and 755. Closes: #573701.
-    The old permissions were of little benefit, and the user can still
-    change this after installing a new system anyway.
-  * Renamed FAQ to README and added a compatibility symlink.
-  * Removed obsolete Depends on base-passwd, as version 2.0.3.4 is more
-    than 10 years old and we don't support upgrades which skip releases.
-  * Dropped preinst completely, as it was there just to support upgrades
-    from very old releases (that we don't support anymore).
-  * Removed postinst code that supports upgrades from very old releases.

-base-files (5.1) unstable; urgency=low

-  * Changed default permissions for /var/log/btmp to 660, to be in sync
-    with permissions set by logrotate. Closes: #547407.
-  * Do not export PS1 in /root/.bashrc, as it has bash escapes and it's
-    inherited to subshells that do not have to be bash. Closes: #567733.
-  * Added debian_chroot variable to default PS1 in /root/.bashrc.
-  * Comment out PS1 in /root/.bashrc anyway, as /etc/profile and
-    /etc/bash.bashrc already care about it. Closes: #443245.
-  * Comment out umask as well, as it's already in /etc/profile.
-  * Added /usr/local/games to default PATH in /etc/profile. Closes: #487105.
-  * While we are at it, comment out everything about PATH, as /etc/login.defs
-    should already care about this.
-  * Changed default /etc/profile so that it sources /etc/bash.bashrc
-    if the shell is bash. Closes: #275622.
-  * Drop \u part from default PS1 in /etc/profile, as it's only useful
-    for people with several non-root accounts. Most people are either root
-    or an ordinary user, so $ and # are enough to differentiate between them.
-  * Comment out PS1 setting in /etc/profile anyway, as we have bash.bashrc.

-  * Drop README.base, remove-base, and the lines in postinst which checked

-  * Do not fiddle with /etc/adjtime anymore, as it does not belong here.
-  * Added file /etc/dpkg/origins/debian from dpkg package, for the benefit
-    of Debian-derived distributions, as base-files is trivial to fork.
-    Hopefully, this will be one less reason to fork dpkg. Closes: #487437.
-  * Added dpkg (<= 1.15.0) to Replaces, because of the above.

-  * Changed awk from Depends to Pre-Depends. Closes: #314571, #469552.
-    This is required to make the awk virtual package to be truly essential,
-    as only essential packages, their predependencies, and the dependencies
-    of their predependencies are guaranteed to be "working at all times".
-    Previously, the packaging system was allowed to remove an awk flavour
-    and install another one in the middle of an upgrade, which may break
-    packages using awk in their preinsts (and in fact, it happened).
-    Tkanks a lot to Steve Langasek for clarifying this issue.

-base-files (2.2.8) unstable; urgency=low
-
-  * Made /etc/debian_version a `conffile' (Closes: #81249). To prevent

-    if upgrading from a base-files release previous to 2.2.6

-  * The file /etc/motd is no longer a conffile. Instead, it will be updated

-base-files (2.2.5) unstable; urgency=low
-
-  * Modified debian_version, issue and issue.net in /etc so that they
-    read "2.2" again, since this is the last Debian *stable* release so far.
-    Since packages in `unstable' are now automatically moved to `testing',
-    a codename in /etc/debian_version will never be "right" for everybody, so
-    the only sensible thing to do here is to wait until a new release number
-    has been officially decided (Closes: #80784).

-base-files (2.2.0) frozen unstable; urgency=high
-
-  * The recipe in README.base does not work properly because dpkg

-    These directories will now be created by postinst in the initial install.
-    This is a compromise after discussing in debian-policy about Bug #35928.
-    It will save people who like them the work of creating them after
-    installing a new system, and it will save people who dislike them the
-    work of removing them every time base-files is upgraded.
-    Since these directories are only a convenience for the user, who
