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.

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.	Santiago Vila	5.0.0	15 years ago
7	* Changed issue, issue.net and debian_version to read "squee... * 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.	Santiago Vila	5.0	15 years ago
6	* Changed issue, issue.net and debian_version to read "5.0". * 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.	Santiago Vila	5	15 years ago

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.	Santiago Vila	4.0.6	15 years ago
4	* Changed awk from Depends to Pre-Depends. Closes: #314571, ... * 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.	Santiago Vila	4.0.5	15 years ago
3	* Changed issue, issue.net and debian_version to read "4.0". * 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).	Santiago Vila	4	17 years ago
2	Changed example line in default /root/.bashrc from eval `dir... 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.	Santiago Vila	3.1.2	19 years ago
