.
base-files (10.3) unstable; urgency=medium
.
  * Add Breaks: debian-security-support (<< 2019.04.25). Closes: #928172.
    This is the first version of debian-security-support which does not break
    when /etc/debian_version contains a string in the form "10.x".
.
base-files (10.2) unstable; urgency=medium
.
  * Release candidate for buster as stable:
  - Use "10" as version in /etc/issue and /etc/issue.net.
    (never expected to change after buster is released)
  - Use 10.0 as version in /etc/debian_version.
    (expected to change at every point release)
  - Change PRETTY_NAME in /usr/lib/os-release, adding 10 as version number
    and "(buster)" as codename. Add also VERSION_ID and VERSION.
    (never expected to change)
  - Add VERSION_CODENAME to os-release. Closes: #829245. This is optional
    according to the specs but some people find it useful. Please note that
    for now this is only expected to be present on stable releases.
  - Update README (buster -> bullseye).
.
base-files (10.1) unstable; urgency=medium
.
  * Add CC0-1.0 to common-licenses. Closes: #859649, #882628.
    Source: https://creativecommons.org/publicdomain/zero/1.0/legalcode.txt.
  * Simplify debian/rules a little bit by dropping install target
    and using override_dh_auto_install instead. Closes: #886901.
    Package should now build from source again in every supported way.
    Thanks to Daniel Schepler for the report and to Niels Thykier for
    clarifying the true nature of this bug.
  * Do not create /etc/staff-group-for-usr-local on new installs anymore.
    Do not create it on upgrades either, as we don't support upgrades
    skipping stable releases, and even less skipping several releases.
  * Standards-Version: 4.1.3.
.
base-files (10) unstable; urgency=medium
.
  * Change issue, issue.net, debian_version and os-release to read
    "buster/sid", and drop VERSION and VERSION_ID from os-release.
  * Fix typo in changelog for version 9.
.
base-files (9.9) unstable; urgency=medium
.
  * Add MPL-1.1 and MPL-2.0 to common-licenses. Closes: #849835.
    License texts taken from https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/MPL/.
  * Add a default /etc/update-motd.d/10-uname script to
    recover the traditional motd behaviour. Closes: #859124.
.
base-files (9.8) unstable; urgency=medium
.
  * Release candidate for stretch as stable:
  - Use "9" as version in /etc/issue and /etc/issue.net.
    (never expected to change after stretch is released)
  - Use 9.0 as version in /etc/debian_version.
    (expected to change at every point release)
  - Change PRETTY_NAME in /usr/lib/os-release, adding 9 as version number
    and "(stretch)" as codename. Add also VERSION_ID and VERSION.
    (never expected to change)
  - Update README (stretch -> buster).
  * Standards-Version: 3.9.8 (no special changes for this).
.
base-files (9.7) unstable; urgency=medium
.
  * Do not care about /etc/nsswitch.conf anymore, as the file has been
    moved to libc-bin. Closes: #827095.
  [ Guillem Jover ]
  * Do not use gzip compression anymore to build .deb and use the default.
.
base-files (9.6) unstable; urgency=low
.
  * Add lintian override for /etc/os-release.
  * Add lintian overrides for /usr/share/common-licenses.
  * Standards-Version: 3.9.7 (no special changes for this).
  * Switch to dh. Hopefully this should make the package easier
    to fork. Closes: #693423.
  * Change default /etc/profile to not warn about possibly undefined
    variables PS1 and BASH. Closes: #776154.
.
base-files (9.5) unstable; urgency=medium
.
  * os-release: Drop trailing slash in SUPPORT_URL variable, as the URL
    is not supposed to have it. Closes: #781809, #800791.
.
base-files (9.4) unstable; urgency=medium
.
  * Fix two install_from_default() calls in postinst that were still
    using the old calling convention, making debootstrap to fail.
    Thanks to Steven Shiau for the report. Closes: #795952
.
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().
.
base-files (9.2) unstable; urgency=medium
.
  * Create md5sums in a reproducible way.
  * Use "dpkg-parsechangelog -S Date" to get the date.
  * Allow building with umasks other than 022, as far as
    they make a minimum of sense. Closes: #774498.
.
base-files (9.1) unstable; urgency=low
.
  * Use gzip -n to stop recording current time in gzip headers.
  * Fix mtimes before building the binary package.
  * The package should now build reproducibly. Closes: #774498.
    Thanks to Jérémy Bobbio <lunar@debian.org>.
.
base-files (9) unstable; urgency=medium
.
  * Changed issue, issue.net, debian_version and os-release to read
    "stretch/sid", and dropped VERSION and VERSION_ID from os-release.
  * Changed HOME_URL and SUPPORT_URL in 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.
.
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
.
  * Changed issue, issue.net, debian_version and os-release to read
    "jessie/sid", and dropped VERSION and VERSION_ID from os-release.
.
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.
.
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.
.
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.
.
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 (6.5) unstable; urgency=low
.
  * Modified default /etc/profile to not read /etc/bash.bashrc if bash
    is invoked as /bin/sh. Closes: #632887.
.
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.
.
base-files (6.3) unstable; urgency=low
.
  * 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 (6.2) unstable; urgency=low
.
  * Added /run. Requested by Roger Leigh. Closes: #620157.
.
base-files (6.1) unstable; urgency=medium
.
  * Changed issue, issue.net and debian_version to read "wheezy/sid".
.
base-files (6.0) unstable; urgency=low
.
  * Changed issue, issue.net and debian_version to read "6.0".
  * Updated README accordingly.
.
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
.
  * Added GPL version 1 from http://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/Licenses/ as there
    are a lot of packages still using it. Bug #436105.
.
base-files (5.7) unstable; urgency=low
.
  * Drop umask setting from /etc/profile, will be handled by pam_umask.
    Closes: #583967.
.
base-files (5.6) 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.
.
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.
  * Refresh GNU licenses from http://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/Licenses/, as they
    have expanded the embedded tabs. Closes: #572245.
  * Switch to "3.0 (native)" format.
.
base-files (5.3) unstable; urgency=low
.
  * Changed default /etc/profile so that it sources /etc/profile.d/*.sh
    as mandated by the LSB section 16.2. Closes: #545756.
    Package maintainers: Please don't use profile.d if you can avoid it,
    as policy says "A program must not depend on environment variables
    to get reasonable defaults".
  * Removed questions about profile.d from FAQ.
.
base-files (5.2) unstable; urgency=low
.
  * Added question in FAQ to document the fact that some configuration
    files in /etc are never updated on upgrades. Closes: #571083.
  * 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 /root to 700, as many admins consider
    it should be more private than other home directories. Closes: #514794.
  * 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.
.
base-files (5.0.0) unstable; urgency=low
.
  * Drop README.base, remove-base, and the lines in postinst which checked
    for the old base package being present.
  * 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.
  * On initial install and also on upgrades, create /etc/dpkg/origins/default
    as a symlink to /etc/dpkg/origins/debian, if it does not exist.
  * Updated copyright year in copyright file.
.
base-files (5.0) unstable; urgency=medium
.
  * Changed issue, issue.net and debian_version to read "squeeze/sid".
  * Added GFDL-1.3 from http://www.gnu.org/licenses/fdl-1.3.txt as new
    packages in unstable are starting to use it. Closes: #517196.
  * Updated generic GFDL symlink accordingly, as it is always supposed
    to point to the latest version.
.
base-files (5) unstable; urgency=low
.
  * Changed issue, issue.net and debian_version to read "5.0".
  * Changed FAQ so that users of lenny as stable will know what happens
    when they upgrade to the new testing.
.
base-files (4.0.6) unstable; urgency=low
.
  * Changed the way wtmp, btmp and lastlog are handled. They are no longer
    recreated at every base-files upgrade. Instead, they are only created
    once, when base-files is installed by debootstrap. It is really not
    base-files business to fiddle with those files, as it is documented
    that removing them is the standard way to disable logging to them.
    Closes: #488376.
.
base-files (4.0.5) unstable; urgency=low
.
  * 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.
  * It's still soon to change /etc/debian_version. Please be patient.
.
base-files (4.0.4) unstable; urgency=low
.
  * Added Apache-2.0 to common-licenses. Closes: #471736.
    Retrieved from http://www.apache.org/licenses/LICENSE-2.0.txt.
  * Fixed typo in README.base. Closes: #475201.
.
base-files (4.0.3) unstable; urgency=low
.
  * Added md5sums. Closes: #464479.
  * Do not create /initrd at install time anymore. Closes: #467429.
.
base-files (4.0.2) unstable; urgency=low
.
  * Changed default /root/.profile so that it sources /root/.bashrc only
    if the shell is bash. Closes: #364326.
.
base-files (4.0.1) unstable; urgency=low
.
  * Added GPL-3 and LGPL-3 to common-licenses, as they are expected to
    become common licenses. Closes: #431176. Please note that GPL and LGPL
    will now point to GPL-3 and LGPL-3, as they are the most recent ones.
    Packages under GPLv2 without "or any later version" must definitely
    refer to the versioned file, not to the GPL symlink anymore.
.
base-files (4.0.0) unstable; urgency=low
.
  * Added GFDL-1.2 from ftp://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/Licenses/COPYING.DOC-1.2
    to common-licenses, following policy (Closes: #420599).
.
base-files (4.0) unstable; urgency=low
.
  * Changed issue, issue.net and debian_version to read "lenny/sid".
  * Changed FAQ accordingly.
.
base-files (4) unstable; urgency=low
.
  * Changed issue, issue.net and debian_version to read "4.0".
  * Changed PATHs in default /etc/profile to not contain /usr/bin/X11,
    as this is no longer needed by the X packages in etch (Closes: #388586).
.
base-files (3.1.16) unstable; urgency=low
.
  * Changed comment in default /etc/nsswitch.conf so that it refers to
    glibc-doc-reference, not glibc-doc (Closes: #384722).
.
base-files (3.1.15) unstable; urgency=low
.
  * Added /usr/local/etc, required by FHS (Closes: #383493).
    [ As usual, please note that this will only affect new installs ].
    This directory is also allowed to be a symlink to /etc/local, but that's
    a decision to be made by the end user after installing the system.
  * Standards-Version: 3.7.2.
.
base-files (3.1.14) unstable; urgency=low
.
  * Removed (obsolete) order line from default host.conf (Closes: #354115).
  * Updated GPL-2 from ftp://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/Licenses (Closes: #380067).
.
base-files (3.1.13) unstable; urgency=low
.
  * Updated LGPL-2 from ftp://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/Licenses (Closes: #332390).
.
base-files (3.1.12) unstable; urgency=low
.
  * Changed default /usr/share/info/dir so that it does not refer to
    documentation not available in etch/main (Closes: #362597).
.
base-files (3.1.11) unstable; urgency=low
.
  * The file /etc/nsswitch.conf is now created by postinst in the first
    install (made by debootstrap), and it's no longer a conffile.
.
base-files (3.1.10) unstable; urgency=medium
.
  * Removed mdns item from hosts line in default /etc/nsswitch.conf, since
    it does not make everybody happy (Bugs #348578, #348580 and #351990).
  * Updated default /etc/adjtime to current year.
.
base-files (3.1.9) unstable; urgency=low
.
  * The file /etc/inputrc is now handled by readline-common.
  * Changed to section admin to match override file.
.
base-files (3.1.8) unstable; urgency=low
.
  * Added mdns to hosts line in default /etc/nsswitch.conf to support
    mDNS when available (Closes: #324954). Suggested by Joey Hess.
  * Dropped %h from issue.net, as it's not supported by all telnetd
    daemons and it's not even supported by ssh (Closes: #329682).
    Thanks to Dave Love for the report.
.
base-files (3.1.7) unstable; urgency=medium
.
  * Removed trailing spaces from default inputrc (Closes: #325007).
.
base-files (3.1.6) unstable; urgency=low
.
  * Removed /usr/doc and /usr/info.
  * Modified postinst to create /usr/share/info/dir, not /usr/info/dir.
.
base-files (3.1.5) unstable; urgency=medium
.
  * Updated GPL-2 and LGPL-2.1 from ftp://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/Licenses again.
    There should be no references to the old address anymore (Bug #312586).
.
base-files (3.1.4) unstable; urgency=medium
.
  * Updated GPL-2 and LGPL-2.1 from ftp://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/Licenses,
    as FSF has moved again (Closes: #312586).
.
base-files (3.1.3) unstable; urgency=low
.
  * Changed issue, issue.net and debian_release to "testing/unstable".
    Not that this is a lot useful, but at least is what people expect.
  * Made /home to be 755 and root:root by default, since nobody finds
    the sgid bit in such directory useful for anything.
.
base-files (3.1.2) unstable; urgency=low
.
  * Changed example line in default /root/.bashrc from eval `dircolors` to
    eval "`dircolors`" as the old form may be dangerous (Closes: #285836).
    Thanks a lot to Paul Eggert for the report.
.
base-files (3.1.1) unstable; urgency=low
.
  * The file /etc/profile is not a conffile anymore. Instead, it is created
    by postinst in the very first base-files install, made by debootstrap.
  * Accordingly, removed bash from Replaces field.
.
base-files (3.1.0) unstable; urgency=low
.
  * Moved PATH definition for root from the default /root/.profile to the
    default /etc/profile, by popular demand (Closes: #278865).
  * The file /etc/inputrc is now created by postinst in the first install.
    Removed libreadline incarnations from Replaces field accordingly.
    This file will probably be managed by libreadline-common some day.
.
base-files (3.1) unstable; urgency=high
.
  * Changed issue, issue.net and debian_version to read "3.1".
.
base-files (3.0.16) unstable; urgency=low
.
  * Changed -a to && in postinst (Closes #254781).
  * Updated copyright year.
.
base-files (3.0.15) unstable; urgency=low
.
  * FAQ: Documented the fact that some FHS "mandatory" directories are
    only created in the initial install (Closes: #242192).
  * Do not create /cdrom and /floppy anymore (Closes: #245188).
  * Use "ln -sf" to create /usr/local/man symlink (Closes: #245687).
.
base-files (3.0.14) unstable; urgency=low
.
  * Added /var/log/btmp, following /etc/login.defs (Closes: #239587).
.
base-files (3.0.13) unstable; urgency=low
.
  * Added /srv, /media and /usr/local/share/man (Closes: #230909).
  * Added /usr/local/man as a symlink to /usr/local/share/man,
    since FHS says both directories should be "synonymous".
  * I'm not populating /media because subdirectories are optional.
    They only must exist "if the corresponding subsystem is installed".
    Detecting such things is not really base-files business. I would
    expect debian-installer to create those subdirectories instead.
  * /cdrom and /floppy will still be created in the first install until
    debian-installer and/or apt stop using them for new installs.
.
base-files (3.0.12) unstable; urgency=low
.
  * Made issue and issue.net generated files, to prevent a double "GNU/"
    prefix on GNU/K*BSD systems (Closes: #217383).
.
base-files (3.0.11) unstable; urgency=low
.
  * Updated /etc/inputrc (from readline maintainer). Closes: #213666.
.
base-files (3.0.10) unstable; urgency=low
.
  * Use `:' for chown, not `.' (Closes: #204860).
.
base-files (3.0.9) unstable; urgency=low
.
  * Prevent OSNAME from having the GNU/ prefix twice (Closes: #200741).
  * Updated LGPL-2.1 from ftp.gnu.org. Instead of form feeds, the old
    version was using `^' followed by `L' (Closes: #201867).
.
base-files (3.0.8) unstable; urgency=low
.
  * Fixed the way /etc/motd is updated so that it still works when md5sum
    prints a `-' after the md5sum value (Closes: #180920).
.
base-files (3.0.7) unstable; urgency=low
.
  * Added "Why isn't license `foo' included in common-licenses?" to the FAQ.
    Thanks to Colin Watson for the suggestion.
.
base-files (3.0.6) unstable; urgency=low
.
  * Changed /etc/profile so that PS1 isn't set for non-interactive shells.
    This should make the usual way of testing for interactive shells
    (checking for PS1) to always work (Closes: #164846).
  * Changed /etc/motd to better reflect the truth about Debian: s/Most of//
    and s/freely redistributable/free software/ (Closes: #169543).
.
base-files (3.0.5) unstable; urgency=low
.
  * Added a small FAQ. The current topics are:
  - Why Debian does not have a profile.d directory?
  - I upgraded to testing, why /etc/issue does not read "testing"?
  * Standards-Version: 3.5.7 (do not create or remove doc symlinks).
    Note: In theory, packages still creating doc symlinks are allowed
    to blindly assume /usr/doc exists, so /usr/doc will still be part of
    base-files for some time.
  * Removed prerm, since it's not required anymore.
.
base-files (3.0.4) unstable; urgency=low
.
  * /etc/profile does no longer export PS1. This should prevent
    strange prompts to be shown when switching from bash to a shell which
    does not understand bash escapes (Closes: #141193).
  * Set distribution to "testing/unstable".
.
base-files (3.0.3) unstable; urgency=low
.
  * Fixed wrong group ownerships under GNU/Hurd. This may also happen under
    Linux when using the `bsdgroups' mount option, but even in this case
    it will not happen if the package is built using fakeroot.
.
base-files (3.0.2) unstable; urgency=medium
.
  * Made /usr/share/doc/base-files/remove-base more robust (Closes: #132969).
.
base-files (3.0.1) unstable; urgency=medium
.
  * Modified postinst to use awk only on upgrades, not in the first install.
    This should help debootstrap (Closes: #130056, #130087).
.
base-files (3.0.0) unstable; urgency=medium
.
  * Restored /usr/doc since it's still required by the system according
    to the doc transition plan.
.
base-files (3.0) unstable; urgency=medium
.
  * Changed issue, issue.net and debian_version to read "3.0".
.
base-files (2.2.15) unstable; urgency=low
.
  * Removed /usr/doc.
.
base-files (2.2.14) unstable; urgency=low
.
  * Created /opt, /etc/opt and /var/opt in the first install.
    They are mentioned in FHS 2.1 and required in FHS 2.2 (Closes: #118505).
  * The copyright file now refers to GNU/Linux or GNU/Hurd as appropriate.
  * Updated README.base and postinst to refer to /usr/share/doc.
  * Updated default /etc/adjtime to current millenium.
.
base-files (2.2.13) unstable; urgency=low
.
  * GPL is now a symlink to GPL-2, which is the real file.
.
base-files (2.2.12) unstable; urgency=low
.
  * s/info readline/info rluserman/ in /etc/inputrc (Closes: #109110).
  * Updated LGPL-2.1 from ftp.gnu.org to fix line breaks (Closes: #109319).
.
base-files (2.2.11) unstable; urgency=low
.
  * In the first install, populate /usr/local even if it exists.
    Allows /usr/local to be mounted in a separate partition during the
    install process (Closes: #107662).
.
base-files (2.2.10) unstable; urgency=low
.
  * Removed /var/state and /var/state/misc, added /usr/local/games.
    Reported by Sebastian Riedel.
  * Made /boot mode 755 and owned by root group, since no part of the system
    seems to require special permissions here (Closes: #102080).
.
base-files (2.2.9) unstable; urgency=medium
.
  * Creates /etc/motd in the initial install (now made by debootstrap).
    Forgot to do this in 2.2.7. Reported by Matt Kraai (Closes: #101342).
.
base-files (2.2.8) unstable; urgency=low
.
  * Made /etc/debian_version a `conffile' (Closes: #81249). To prevent
    unneeded dpkg prompting, this file is overwritten in the preinst
    if upgrading from a base-files release previous to 2.2.6
    (thanks to Joey Hess for suggesting this solution).
.
base-files (2.2.7) unstable; urgency=low
.
  * The file /etc/motd is no longer a conffile. Instead, it will be updated
    if its md5sum (minus its first two lines) matches the one in a list of
    md5sums of previous Debian releases. This will reduce dpkg prompting
    on upgrades (Closes: #71083).
.
base-files (2.2.6) unstable; urgency=medium
.
  * Use "testing/unstable" instead of "2.2" for the distribution number.
    It seems everybody prefers to see something else other than "2.2".
.
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 (2.2.4) unstable; urgency=low
.
  * Restored LGPL -> LGPL-2.1 symlink, which was mistakenly removed
    in base-files_2.2.1 (Bug #75949).
.
base-files (2.2.3) unstable; urgency=low
.
  * Added /var/lib/misc, since it's required by FHS (Closes: Bug #74317).
.
base-files (2.2.2) unstable; urgency=low
.
  * Reduced verbosity, as suggested by Sean Perry (Closes: #70686).
.
base-files (2.2.1) unstable; urgency=low
.
  * Release for woody (debian_version, issue and issue.net).
  * /etc/motd now refers to /usr/share/doc/*/copyright.
  * Removed /usr/doc/copyright and /usr/man.
.
base-files (2.2.0) frozen unstable; urgency=high
.
  * The recipe in README.base does not work properly because dpkg
    removes the conffiles listed in the status file (Bug #64734).
    So, getting rid of base involves editing the status file.
    To avoid mistakes, a shell script is now provided for that.
    Thanks to Kevin Dalley <kevind@alacosta.org> for the report.
.
base-files (2.2) frozen unstable; urgency=low
.
  * preinst and postinst: Do not deal with /dev/pts anymore.
  * issue and issue.net: Removed the `frozen' word.
  * Final release for potato (hopefully).
.
base-files (2.1.20) frozen unstable; urgency=high
.
  * Made /var/log mode 755 and root.root (Bug #35504).
  * Made /cdrom and /floppy mode 755 and root.root (Bug #25847).
  * Removed /dev/pts. It made the package impossible to upgrade when
    using devfs with Linux 2.4. libc6 is already supposed to deal
    with /dev/pts (Bug #61408).
  * postinst removes base.conffiles as well (otherwise, some files
    like /etc/motd or /root/.bash_profile may disappear).
    Thanks a lot to Mikko Oilinki for the report.
  * Slightly improved README.base.
.
base-files (2.1.19) frozen unstable; urgency=low
.
  * Removed /usr/dict (Bug #60118).
  * Minimal handling of the old base package (Bug #32888).
  * Removed redundant directive in /etc/inputrc (Bug #59689).
  * Do not reference /usr/share/doc in /etc/motd yet (Bug #61116).
.
base-files (2.1.18) frozen unstable; urgency=low
.
  * Handle better the /var/spool/mail-being-a-symlink case.
  * Added /dev/pts for UNIX98-style pty handling under Linux.
  * Added a README.FHS.
.
base-files (2.1.17) frozen unstable; urgency=high
.
  * Some people has /var/spool/mail symlinked to somewhere else.
    For this case, preinst now saves the symlink target before dpkg
    removes it and postinst restores it.
  * Do not fiddle with /usr/local on upgrades. From now on, users
    will be free to remove it if they wish.
.
base-files (2.1.16) frozen unstable; urgency=low
.
  * Generate default info dir file from /usr/share/base-files/info.dir.
  * Do not generate an info dir file if one exists at /usr/share/info.
  * Updated LGPL version 2 from ftp.gnu.org to fix a typo.
  * Mail spool is /var/mail as per FHS (only in new installs).
  * Acknowledge in the copyright file that the GNU Public Licenses are
    copyrighted by the Free Software Foundation, Inc.
.
base-files (2.1.15) frozen unstable; urgency=low
.
  * Removed misleading copyright notice in /etc/motd.
  * Distribution set to "2.2" (adding `frozen' in issue and issue.net).
  * Use DEB_HOST_GNU_SYSTEM for the architecture stuff wherever possible.
.
base-files (2.1.14) unstable; urgency=high
.
  * Swap binary-arch and binary-indep targets in debian/rules, since this
    is now Architecture: any. Thanks to Roman Hodek for the report.
.
base-files (2.1.13) unstable; urgency=low
.
  * Made "Architecture: any" for /etc/motd to be os-dependant.
    [ A binary-all-<os> scheme would simplify this ].
  * Exclude /proc from the .deb under GNU/Hurd (reported by Marcus Brinkmann).
  * Added `set -e' to postinst.
  * Standards-Version: 3.1.1 (doc symlinks).
  * Removed obsolete README. If someone still asks about /usr/spool or
    /var/adm then a paragraph could be added to the Debian FAQ.
  * Follow changes suggested by Branden Robinson:
  * Removed remaining bashisms in default /root/.profile and use
    /usr/bin/X11 for X11 binaries.
  * Improved package description.
  * Removed unused bin/edit in the source.
  * Changed root test in /etc/profile to use id -u.
.
base-files (2.1.12) unstable; urgency=high
.
  * Fixed Replaces field (reported a zillion times).
  * Updated /etc/profile to use '$ ' as the shell prompt for normal
    users and '# ' for the superuser if $BASH is not set.
.
base-files (2.1.11) unstable; urgency=low
.
  * Include /etc/inputrc and /etc/profile from readline and bash,
    as suggested by Matthias Klose.
.
base-files (2.1.10) unstable; urgency=low
.
  * Create /var/log/lastlog as root.utmp, mode 664.
  * Removed Linuxisms from /etc/motd.
  * Updated GPL from ftp.gnu.org to be Y2K-compliant.
.
base-files (2.1.9) unstable; urgency=low
.
  * Removed the advertising clause from BSD license (Bug #43347).
    Reason: ftp://ftp.cs.berkeley.edu/ucb/4bsd/README.Impt.License.Change
    Thanks to J.H.M. Dassen for the report.
.
base-files (2.1.8) unstable; urgency=low
.
  * Added base-passwd (>= 2.0.3.4) to the Depends field.
  * utmp and wtmp are now root.utmp and mode 664 (Bug #41569).
  * Updated extended description regarding the common licenses.
.
base-files (2.1.7) unstable; urgency=low
.
  * LGPL is now the Lesser Gnu Public License (Bug #40759).
    For now, the old version is renamed to "LGPL-2".
  * Changed compatibility symlink /usr/doc/copyright/LGPL so that it
    points to the old version.
  * Moved docs to /usr/share/doc/base-files.
  * Changed default /etc/motd so that it refers both to /usr/doc/*/copyright
    and /usr/share/doc/*/copyright.
.
base-files (2.1.6) unstable; urgency=low
.
  * preinst: Do not fiddle with /etc/issue.net anymore.
  * Changed the way /cdrom, /floppy and /initrd are handled.
    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
    is free to use them or not, the spirit of FHS is preserved.
  * preinst and postinst: Following the principle of least surprise,
    added code so that existing directories are not removed when upgrading
    this package from previous releases.
.
base-files (2.1.5) unstable; urgency=low
.
  * When /usr/local does not exist, create also /usr/local/src.
  * Added /var/cache, /var/state and /var/state/misc.
  * Added /usr/share/info and /usr/share/man.
.
base-files (2.1.4) unstable; urgency=low
.
  * Removed the utmpx/wtmpx stuff from postinst.
  * Updated the Artistic License (Bug #34685).
.
base-files (2.1.3) unstable; urgency=low
.
  * Use `nis' for the `netgroup:' entry in /etc/nsswitch.conf (Bug #33091).
.
base-files (2.1.2) unstable; urgency=high
.
  * Fixed a typo in postinst (Bug #34094).
.
base-files (2.1.1) unstable; urgency=low
.
  * postinst: touch /var/log/wtmpx and /var/run/utmpx to support
    the utmpd in glibc 2.1 (reported by Joel Klecker).
  * Replaced "Debian Linux" by just "Debian" in the default info dir file.
  * Updated for potato.
.
base-files (2.1.0) frozen unstable; urgency=medium
.
  * Updated copyright date in /etc/motd (Bug #32646).
.
base-files (2.1) frozen unstable; urgency=low
.
  * debian_version, issue and issue.net: `slink' replaced by `2.1'.
  * Added /usr/share/dict, since there are already some packages
    using it.
.
base-files (2.0.3) unstable; urgency=low
.
  * Moved common licenses to /usr/share/common-licenses.
  * Default dotfiles for root are now installed only the first time.
  * /usr/local and subdirectories are now created mode 2775
    and root.staff, according to policy.
  * Added /usr/local/share.
.
base-files (2.0.2) unstable; urgency=low
.
  * If it does not exist, now a default /root/.profile file is installed,
    not a /root/.bash_profile file, for slightly better POSIX compliance.
.
base-files (2.0.1) unstable; urgency=low
.
  * Added (commented out) some more alias for root's default .bashrc.

.
base-files (2.0) frozen unstable; urgency=medium
.
  * Removed the "frozen" word from /etc/debian_version.
  * Removed the use of the ROOT variable in preinst and postinst for two
    reasons: a) It is no longer needed, since the base system is built
    by using dpkg's --root=dir option, which works in a chrooted environment;
    and b) Unexpected results would be obtained if user root had actually
    defined a variable named ROOT.
.
base-files (1.9) frozen unstable; urgency=low
.
  * Default prompt for root is now '\h:\w\$ '.
  * issue and issue.net: Removed the "frozen" word.

.
  * Added "Depends: awk", so that awk is a "virtual essential package".
  * /root/.bash_profile and /root/.bashrc are not `conffiles' anymore.
    Instead, they are created from /root/.bash_profile.dpkg-dist and
    /root/.bashrc.dpkg-dist if they do not exist.
  * Default /root/.bash_profile sources /root/.bashrc.
  * PS1 and umask are now set only once in default /root/.bashrc.

.
base-files (1.6) unstable; urgency=low
.
  * Default prompt for root is now PS1='\u@\h:\w\$ ', which may not
    please everybody and/or generate a flame war, but at least is better
    than nothing (previosuly it was PS1='\h\$ ').
  * Added two blank lines to /etc/motd to keep Copyright notice from being
    overwritten by /etc/init.d/bootmisc.sh.
  * Removed compatibility symlinks /usr/spool, /usr/tmp, /usr/adm

    Changed `prototype' directory by an install -d `cat directories`,
    and then set special permissions and ownerships directly.
  * Added "Depends: awk", so that awk is a "virtual essential package".
  * Updated GPL and LGPL. FSF's address changed some time ago to:
    59 Temple Place, Suite 330, Boston, MA  02111-1307  USA.

+                GNU Free Documentation License
+                  Version 1.2, November 2002
+
+
+ Copyright (C) 2000,2001,2002  Free Software Foundation, Inc.
+     51 Franklin St, Fifth Floor, Boston, MA  02110-1301  USA
+ Everyone is permitted to copy and distribute verbatim copies
+ of this license document, but changing it is not allowed.
+
+
+0. PREAMBLE
+
+The purpose of this License is to make a manual, textbook, or other
+functional and useful document "free" in the sense of freedom: to
+assure everyone the effective freedom to copy and redistribute it,
+with or without modifying it, either commercially or noncommercially.
+Secondarily, this License preserves for the author and publisher a way
+to get credit for their work, while not being considered responsible
+for modifications made by others.
+
+This License is a kind of "copyleft", which means that derivative
+works of the document must themselves be free in the same sense.  It
+complements the GNU General Public License, which is a copyleft
+license designed for free software.
+
+We have designed this License in order to use it for manuals for free
+software, because free software needs free documentation: a free
+program should come with manuals providing the same freedoms that the
+software does.  But this License is not limited to software manuals;
+it can be used for any textual work, regardless of subject matter or
+whether it is published as a printed book.  We recommend this License
+principally for works whose purpose is instruction or reference.
+
+
+1. APPLICABILITY AND DEFINITIONS
+
+This License applies to any manual or other work, in any medium, that
+contains a notice placed by the copyright holder saying it can be
+distributed under the terms of this License.  Such a notice grants a
+world-wide, royalty-free license, unlimited in duration, to use that
+work under the conditions stated herein.  The "Document", below,
+refers to any such manual or work.  Any member of the public is a
+licensee, and is addressed as "you".  You accept the license if you
+copy, modify or distribute the work in a way requiring permission
+under copyright law.
+
+A "Modified Version" of the Document means any work containing the
+Document or a portion of it, either copied verbatim, or with
+modifications and/or translated into another language.
+
+A "Secondary Section" is a named appendix or a front-matter section of
+the Document that deals exclusively with the relationship of the
+publishers or authors of the Document to the Document's overall subject
+(or to related matters) and contains nothing that could fall directly
+within that overall subject.  (Thus, if the Document is in part a
+textbook of mathematics, a Secondary Section may not explain any
+mathematics.)  The relationship could be a matter of historical
+connection with the subject or with related matters, or of legal,
+commercial, philosophical, ethical or political position regarding
+them.
+
+The "Invariant Sections" are certain Secondary Sections whose titles
+are designated, as being those of Invariant Sections, in the notice
+that says that the Document is released under this License.  If a
+section does not fit the above definition of Secondary then it is not
+allowed to be designated as Invariant.  The Document may contain zero
+Invariant Sections.  If the Document does not identify any Invariant
+Sections then there are none.
+
+The "Cover Texts" are certain short passages of text that are listed,
+as Front-Cover Texts or Back-Cover Texts, in the notice that says that
+the Document is released under this License.  A Front-Cover Text may
+be at most 5 words, and a Back-Cover Text may be at most 25 words.
+
+A "Transparent" copy of the Document means a machine-readable copy,
+represented in a format whose specification is available to the
+general public, that is suitable for revising the document
+straightforwardly with generic text editors or (for images composed of
+pixels) generic paint programs or (for drawings) some widely available
+drawing editor, and that is suitable for input to text formatters or
+for automatic translation to a variety of formats suitable for input
+to text formatters.  A copy made in an otherwise Transparent file
+format whose markup, or absence of markup, has been arranged to thwart
+or discourage subsequent modification by readers is not Transparent.
+An image format is not Transparent if used for any substantial amount
+of text.  A copy that is not "Transparent" is called "Opaque".
+
+Examples of suitable formats for Transparent copies include plain
+ASCII without markup, Texinfo input format, LaTeX input format, SGML
+or XML using a publicly available DTD, and standard-conforming simple
+HTML, PostScript or PDF designed for human modification.  Examples of
+transparent image formats include PNG, XCF and JPG.  Opaque formats
+include proprietary formats that can be read and edited only by
+proprietary word processors, SGML or XML for which the DTD and/or
+processing tools are not generally available, and the
+machine-generated HTML, PostScript or PDF produced by some word
+processors for output purposes only.
+
+The "Title Page" means, for a printed book, the title page itself,
+plus such following pages as are needed to hold, legibly, the material
+this License requires to appear in the title page.  For works in
+formats which do not have any title page as such, "Title Page" means
+the text near the most prominent appearance of the work's title,
+preceding the beginning of the body of the text.
+
+A section "Entitled XYZ" means a named subunit of the Document whose
+title either is precisely XYZ or contains XYZ in parentheses following
+text that translates XYZ in another language.  (Here XYZ stands for a
+specific section name mentioned below, such as "Acknowledgements",
+"Dedications", "Endorsements", or "History".)  To "Preserve the Title"
+of such a section when you modify the Document means that it remains a
+section "Entitled XYZ" according to this definition.
+
+The Document may include Warranty Disclaimers next to the notice which
+states that this License applies to the Document.  These Warranty
+Disclaimers are considered to be included by reference in this
+License, but only as regards disclaiming warranties: any other
+implication that these Warranty Disclaimers may have is void and has
+no effect on the meaning of this License.
+
+
+2. VERBATIM COPYING
+
+You may copy and distribute the Document in any medium, either
+commercially or noncommercially, provided that this License, the
+copyright notices, and the license notice saying this License applies
+to the Document are reproduced in all copies, and that you add no other
+conditions whatsoever to those of this License.  You may not use
+technical measures to obstruct or control the reading or further
+copying of the copies you make or distribute.  However, you may accept
+compensation in exchange for copies.  If you distribute a large enough
+number of copies you must also follow the conditions in section 3.
+
+You may also lend copies, under the same conditions stated above, and
+you may publicly display copies.
+
+
+3. COPYING IN QUANTITY
+
+If you publish printed copies (or copies in media that commonly have
+printed covers) of the Document, numbering more than 100, and the
+Document's license notice requires Cover Texts, you must enclose the
+copies in covers that carry, clearly and legibly, all these Cover
+Texts: Front-Cover Texts on the front cover, and Back-Cover Texts on
+the back cover.  Both covers must also clearly and legibly identify
+you as the publisher of these copies.  The front cover must present
+the full title with all words of the title equally prominent and
+visible.  You may add other material on the covers in addition.
+Copying with changes limited to the covers, as long as they preserve
+the title of the Document and satisfy these conditions, can be treated
+as verbatim copying in other respects.
+
+If the required texts for either cover are too voluminous to fit
+legibly, you should put the first ones listed (as many as fit
+reasonably) on the actual cover, and continue the rest onto adjacent
+pages.
+
+If you publish or distribute Opaque copies of the Document numbering
+more than 100, you must either include a machine-readable Transparent
+copy along with each Opaque copy, or state in or with each Opaque copy
+a computer-network location from which the general network-using
+public has access to download using public-standard network protocols
+a complete Transparent copy of the Document, free of added material.
+If you use the latter option, you must take reasonably prudent steps,
+when you begin distribution of Opaque copies in quantity, to ensure
+that this Transparent copy will remain thus accessible at the stated
+location until at least one year after the last time you distribute an
+Opaque copy (directly or through your agents or retailers) of that
+edition to the public.
+
+It is requested, but not required, that you contact the authors of the
+Document well before redistributing any large number of copies, to give
+them a chance to provide you with an updated version of the Document.
+
+
+4. MODIFICATIONS
+
+You may copy and distribute a Modified Version of the Document under
+the conditions of sections 2 and 3 above, provided that you release
+the Modified Version under precisely this License, with the Modified
+Version filling the role of the Document, thus licensing distribution
+and modification of the Modified Version to whoever possesses a copy
+of it.  In addition, you must do these things in the Modified Version:
+
+A. Use in the Title Page (and on the covers, if any) a title distinct
+   from that of the Document, and from those of previous versions
+   (which should, if there were any, be listed in the History section
+   of the Document).  You may use the same title as a previous version
+   if the original publisher of that version gives permission.
+B. List on the Title Page, as authors, one or more persons or entities
+   responsible for authorship of the modifications in the Modified
+   Version, together with at least five of the principal authors of the
+   Document (all of its principal authors, if it has fewer than five),
+   unless they release you from this requirement.
+C. State on the Title page the name of the publisher of the
+   Modified Version, as the publisher.
+D. Preserve all the copyright notices of the Document.
+E. Add an appropriate copyright notice for your modifications
+   adjacent to the other copyright notices.
+F. Include, immediately after the copyright notices, a license notice
+   giving the public permission to use the Modified Version under the
+   terms of this License, in the form shown in the Addendum below.
+G. Preserve in that license notice the full lists of Invariant Sections
+   and required Cover Texts given in the Document's license notice.
+H. Include an unaltered copy of this License.
+I. Preserve the section Entitled "History", Preserve its Title, and add
+   to it an item stating at least the title, year, new authors, and
+   publisher of the Modified Version as given on the Title Page.  If
+   there is no section Entitled "History" in the Document, create one
+   stating the title, year, authors, and publisher of the Document as
+   given on its Title Page, then add an item describing the Modified
+   Version as stated in the previous sentence.
+J. Preserve the network location, if any, given in the Document for
+   public access to a Transparent copy of the Document, and likewise
+   the network locations given in the Document for previous versions
+   it was based on.  These may be placed in the "History" section.
+   You may omit a network location for a work that was published at
+   least four years before the Document itself, or if the original
+   publisher of the version it refers to gives permission.
+K. For any section Entitled "Acknowledgements" or "Dedications",
+   Preserve the Title of the section, and preserve in the section all
+   the substance and tone of each of the contributor acknowledgements
+   and/or dedications given therein.
+L. Preserve all the Invariant Sections of the Document,
+   unaltered in their text and in their titles.  Section numbers
+   or the equivalent are not considered part of the section titles.
+M. Delete any section Entitled "Endorsements".  Such a section
+   may not be included in the Modified Version.
+N. Do not retitle any existing section to be Entitled "Endorsements"
+   or to conflict in title with any Invariant Section.
+O. Preserve any Warranty Disclaimers.
+
+If the Modified Version includes new front-matter sections or
+appendices that qualify as Secondary Sections and contain no material
+copied from the Document, you may at your option designate some or all
+of these sections as invariant.  To do this, add their titles to the
+list of Invariant Sections in the Modified Version's license notice.
+These titles must be distinct from any other section titles.
+
+You may add a section Entitled "Endorsements", provided it contains
+nothing but endorsements of your Modified Version by various
+parties--for example, statements of peer review or that the text has
+been approved by an organization as the authoritative definition of a
+standard.
+
+You may add a passage of up to five words as a Front-Cover Text, and a
+passage of up to 25 words as a Back-Cover Text, to the end of the list
+of Cover Texts in the Modified Version.  Only one passage of
+Front-Cover Text and one of Back-Cover Text may be added by (or
+through arrangements made by) any one entity.  If the Document already
+includes a cover text for the same cover, previously added by you or
+by arrangement made by the same entity you are acting on behalf of,
+you may not add another; but you may replace the old one, on explicit
+permission from the previous publisher that added the old one.
+
+The author(s) and publisher(s) of the Document do not by this License
+give permission to use their names for publicity for or to assert or
+imply endorsement of any Modified Version.
+
+
+5. COMBINING DOCUMENTS
+
+You may combine the Document with other documents released under this
+License, under the terms defined in section 4 above for modified
+versions, provided that you include in the combination all of the
+Invariant Sections of all of the original documents, unmodified, and
+list them all as Invariant Sections of your combined work in its
+license notice, and that you preserve all their Warranty Disclaimers.
+
+The combined work need only contain one copy of this License, and
+multiple identical Invariant Sections may be replaced with a single
+copy.  If there are multiple Invariant Sections with the same name but
+different contents, make the title of each such section unique by
+adding at the end of it, in parentheses, the name of the original
+author or publisher of that section if known, or else a unique number.
+Make the same adjustment to the section titles in the list of
+Invariant Sections in the license notice of the combined work.
+
+In the combination, you must combine any sections Entitled "History"
+in the various original documents, forming one section Entitled
+"History"; likewise combine any sections Entitled "Acknowledgements",
+and any sections Entitled "Dedications".  You must delete all sections
+Entitled "Endorsements".
+
+
+6. COLLECTIONS OF DOCUMENTS
+
+You may make a collection consisting of the Document and other documents
+released under this License, and replace the individual copies of this
+License in the various documents with a single copy that is included in
+the collection, provided that you follow the rules of this License for
+verbatim copying of each of the documents in all other respects.
+
+You may extract a single document from such a collection, and distribute
+it individually under this License, provided you insert a copy of this
+License into the extracted document, and follow this License in all
+other respects regarding verbatim copying of that document.
+
+
+7. AGGREGATION WITH INDEPENDENT WORKS
+
+A compilation of the Document or its derivatives with other separate
+and independent documents or works, in or on a volume of a storage or
+distribution medium, is called an "aggregate" if the copyright
+resulting from the compilation is not used to limit the legal rights
+of the compilation's users beyond what the individual works permit.
+When the Document is included in an aggregate, this License does not
+apply to the other works in the aggregate which are not themselves
+derivative works of the Document.
+
+If the Cover Text requirement of section 3 is applicable to these
+copies of the Document, then if the Document is less than one half of
+the entire aggregate, the Document's Cover Texts may be placed on
+covers that bracket the Document within the aggregate, or the
+electronic equivalent of covers if the Document is in electronic form.
+Otherwise they must appear on printed covers that bracket the whole
+aggregate.
+
+
+8. TRANSLATION
+
+Translation is considered a kind of modification, so you may
+distribute translations of the Document under the terms of section 4.
+Replacing Invariant Sections with translations requires special
+permission from their copyright holders, but you may include
+translations of some or all Invariant Sections in addition to the
+original versions of these Invariant Sections.  You may include a
+translation of this License, and all the license notices in the
+Document, and any Warranty Disclaimers, provided that you also include
+the original English version of this License and the original versions
+of those notices and disclaimers.  In case of a disagreement between
+the translation and the original version of this License or a notice
+or disclaimer, the original version will prevail.
+
+If a section in the Document is Entitled "Acknowledgements",
+"Dedications", or "History", the requirement (section 4) to Preserve
+its Title (section 1) will typically require changing the actual
+title.
+
+
+9. TERMINATION
+
+You may not copy, modify, sublicense, or distribute the Document except
+as expressly provided for under this License.  Any other attempt to
+copy, modify, sublicense or distribute the Document is void, and will
+automatically terminate your rights under this License.  However,
+parties who have received copies, or rights, from you under this
+License will not have their licenses terminated so long as such
+parties remain in full compliance.
+
+
+10. FUTURE REVISIONS OF THIS LICENSE
+
+The Free Software Foundation may publish new, revised versions
+of the GNU Free Documentation License from time to time.  Such new
+versions will be similar in spirit to the present version, but may
+differ in detail to address new problems or concerns.  See
+http://www.gnu.org/copyleft/.
+
+Each version of the License is given a distinguishing version number.
+If the Document specifies that a particular numbered version of this
+License "or any later version" applies to it, you have the option of
+following the terms and conditions either of that specified version or
+of any later version that has been published (not as a draft) by the
+Free Software Foundation.  If the Document does not specify a version
+number of this License, you may choose any version ever published (not
+as a draft) by the Free Software Foundation.
+
+
+ADDENDUM: How to use this License for your documents
+
+To use this License in a document you have written, include a copy of
+the License in the document and put the following copyright and
+license notices just after the title page:
+
+    Copyright (c)  YEAR  YOUR NAME.
+    Permission is granted to copy, distribute and/or modify this document
+    under the terms of the GNU Free Documentation License, Version 1.2
+    or any later version published by the Free Software Foundation;
+    with no Invariant Sections, no Front-Cover Texts, and no Back-Cover Texts.
+    A copy of the license is included in the section entitled "GNU
+    Free Documentation License".
+
+If you have Invariant Sections, Front-Cover Texts and Back-Cover Texts,
+replace the "with...Texts." line with this:
+
+    with the Invariant Sections being LIST THEIR TITLES, with the
+    Front-Cover Texts being LIST, and with the Back-Cover Texts being LIST.
+
+If you have Invariant Sections without Cover Texts, or some other
+combination of the three, merge those two alternatives to suit the
+situation.
+
+If your document contains nontrivial examples of program code, we
+recommend releasing these examples in parallel under your choice of
+free software license, such as the GNU General Public License,
+to permit their use in free software.
