     (Closes: #374582).
   * fix reiserfs invocation, thanks to Andreas Beckmann (Closes: #372828).
   * allow mounting the hostfs to /lib/modules. (Closes: #377035);

 rootstrap (0.3.22-1) unstable; urgency=low
 .
   * ubd dev missing: updated mkfs and mount modules to create it (Closes: #342694)
   * updated Standards depedency to the latest (3.7.2)
   * drop versioned dependencies on user-mode-linux allows rootstrap to work
     with kernel-package self-built kernels.
     (Closes: #275410) (Closes: #282914) (Closes: #320410)
   * ensure that the UML kernel is able to find uml_net (Closes: #304461)
   * add reference of the hostfs need on man page (Closes: #300221)
   * implement a "sources" option for the [debian] modules to
     let users give their favourite repositories (Closes: #172296)
 .
 rootstrap (0.3.21-1) unstable; urgency=low
 .
   * If there are no processes left running which use the target
     filesystem, don't let the (failing) fuser call abort the entire script
     (Closes: #255531)
 .
 rootstrap (0.3.20-1) unstable; urgency=low
 .
   * Only pay attention to the [network]/gateway option when not using
     uml=dhcp
   * Divert start-stop-daemon, as debootstrap does, while installing
     packages with apt
   * Use fuser to kill off any processes using the target root fs, so that
     it can be unmounted
 .
 rootstrap (0.3.19-1) unstable; urgency=low
 .
   * The initialsize/freespace settings seem to confuse people; increase
     initialsize and set freespace to zero, to get a 1GB sparse image with
     no resizing by default (Closes: #205972)
 .
 rootstrap (0.3.18-1) unstable; urgency=low
 .
   * New base-config module, which invokes base-config to configure the
     base system.  This currently only works on sarge+ because it uses
     debconf-set-selections, and it doesn't really work there either due to
     limitations in base-config (it doesn't honor some important pre-seeded
     debconf responses)
   * Set default root password to 'rootstrap' in base-config module
     (Closes: #224430)
   * New tasksel module
   * Fix -u/--umlargs, rename to --umlarg and have it only take one argument
 .
 rootstrap (0.3.17-1) unstable; urgency=low
 .
   * Make "imagefile" one word on the man page, so it's clear that it's a
     single argument
   * -s is in megabytes, like initialsize in rootstrap.conf
   * Make the network/control parameter, used with the daemon transport,
     optional, since UML now has a reasonable compiled-in default
 .
 rootstrap (0.3.16-1) unstable; urgency=low
 .
   * Set the hostname in the rootstrapped system, rather than
     leaving it blank (some packages can't install without a hostname).
     Thanks to Mike Snitzer for working this out
     rootstrap still doesn't really configure the base system (suggestions
     welcome; see #211397)
   * set -e on more modules
 .
 rootstrap (0.3.15-1) unstable; urgency=low
 .
   * Add -c/--config option to specify a config file to read
 .
 rootstrap (0.3.14-1) unstable; urgency=low
 .
   * [modules/debian] Transfer DNS configuration into resolv.conf in the
     generated system
   * Correctly remount the hostfs-root read-only
   * Make some of the modules more robust, and run with set -e
   * [modules/{debian,network}] DHCP support for networking configuration
   * [rootstrap.conf] Don't exclude dhcp-client anymore
   * Change daemon transport syntax to match new interface (no more
     separate data socket)
 .
 rootstrap (0.3.13-1) unstable; urgency=low
 .
   * Fix ext3 handling (mkfs.ext3 works fine without -j)
     (Closes: #199882)
   * Add support for uml_switch networking (Closes: #207631)
 .
 rootstrap (0.3.12-1) unstable; urgency=low
 .
   * Increase default initalsize to 256, which is enough room for
     base+build-essential+umlrun on i386.  Note that this is created
     sparsely, and shrunk down to reflect freespace if it is not used
   * Depend on more recent user-mode-linux, for new hostfs-root syntax
     (Closes: #197480)
   * Really fix the stupid man page problem (Closes: #191767)
 .
 rootstrap (0.3.11-1) unstable; urgency=low
 .
   * When network configuration is enabled in the debian module, configure
     the loopback interface as well
   * Fiddle with man page so that it doesn't eat a line of input.
     I hate groff (Closes: #191767)
   * Add network/slirp config option, primarily for use with the patch in
     #175093 (hopefully will be merged soon)
 .
 rootstrap (0.3.10-1) unstable; urgency=low
 .
   * Fix the debian module's 'install' directive to be non-interactive
   * Patch from Brian May to invoke dpkg in the target rather than using
     dpkg --root (Closes: #189355)
   * Handle building on a block device a bit more gracefully (I hope)
     (Closes: #188047)
 .
 rootstrap (0.3.9-1) unstable; urgency=low
 .
   * Use new syntax for mounting root hostfs
   * Only clobber regular files (Closes: #185672)
 .
 rootstrap (0.3.8-1) unstable; urgency=low
 .
   * Use DEBIAN_FRONTEND=noninteractive, not Noninteractive
     (Closes: #175958)
   * Preconfigured tap support (Closes: #166152)
   * Use long integers so that larger image sizes work (Closes: #183375)
   * Add vim magic comment (Closes: #183350)
   * Suggests: slirp
 .
 rootstrap (0.3.7-1) unstable; urgency=low
 .
   * Add support for the slirp transport.  For this to be really useful,
     you must rebuild slirp with the FULL_BOLT option for reasonable
     performance.  However, once this is done, networking works with no
     address configuration or root access.
 .
 rootstrap (0.3.6-1) unstable; urgency=low
 .
   * Update and clarify man page
   * Fix one-character error which prevent the -u/--umlargs option fram working
 .
 rootstrap (0.3.5-1) unstable; urgency=low
 .
   * Add support to the debian module for saving the network configuration
     to /etc/network/interfaces
   * Add pointer to GPL in copyright (thanks, linda)
 .
 rootstrap (0.3.4-1) unstable; urgency=low
 .
   * Fix default configuration to use a valid Debian mirror.
     Thanks to smoerk at gmx.de for pointing this out.
   * s/DEBCONF_FRONTEND/DEBIAN_FRONTEND/ so that we correctly get the
     noninteractive frontend.  This should cut down greatly on debconf
     warnings. 
   * Fix a bug whereby if a module was overloaded by a local version, the
     original was still run.  Chaos ensued when both modules executed.
 .
 rootstrap (0.3.3-1) unstable; urgency=low
 .
   * Don't fail if no network configuration is specified.  This allows
     installations from local mirrors and CDs.
     (Closes: #151478)
   * Be more conservative, and fail the entire build process if any module
     fails.  This makes it harder to overlook important errors.
   * Clarify documentation for the debian/mirror option, which must be a
     URL understood by debootstrap (Closes: #151482)
 .
 rootstrap (0.3.2-1) unstable; urgency=low
 .
   * Mount the working directory as a separate hostfs filesystem, rather
     than assuming it will be available via the root-hostfs mount.  This
     makes it possible to use /tmp as your workspace on the host
     (Closes: #147712)
 .
 rootstrap (0.3.1-2) unstable; urgency=low
 .
   * Fix build-depends to reflect that we use docbook-to-man again
     (Closes: #146590)
 .
 rootstrap (0.3.1-1) unstable; urgency=low
 .
   * Fix the mkisofs module so that it works with the new hostfs setup
   * Remove build-dependency on mkcramfs
   * Update uml module to add an fstab entry for /proc
 .
 rootstrap (0.3-1) unstable; urgency=low
 .
   * Get rid of the cramfs hack, instead use tmpfs filesystems to overlay
     the parts of the host filesystem that we don't want (such as /etc)
   * Fix all modules to use $TARGET instead of /target, as the target mount
     point has moved (and could again).  All custom modules must be updated
     to use $TARGET.
   * Add a setting to rootstrap.conf to allow configuration of a nameserver
     (Closes: #143171)
 .
 rootstrap (0.2.4-1) unstable; urgency=low
 .
   * Build the man page with docbook-to-man instead of docbook2man, because
     the latter seems to garble the output (Closes: #140857)
   * Append /sbin:/usr/sbin to PATH when building, to ensure that mkcramfs
     can be found (Closes: #142130)
 .
 rootstrap (0.2.3-1) unstable; urgency=low
 .
   * New code release
     - Fix a bug in the creation of ubd devices by the uml module
 .
 rootstrap (0.2.2-1) unstable; urgency=low
 .
   * New code release
     - Add an option to the debian module to install additional packages
       with apt
     - Make the installation of uml kernel modules an optional behaviour
     - Use DEBCONF_FRONTEND=Noninteractive to suppress warning messages
       about debconf falling back to it from other frontends
     - Manually create a ubd0 device for UML, since potato's MAKEDEV
       doesn't understand ubd
     - Append /sbin:/usr/sbin to PATH so that we can always find tune2fs if
       it is installed (Closes: #138398)
 .
 rootstrap (0.2.1-1) unstable; urgency=low
 .
   * New code release
     - Pass devfs=mount to UML when booting the initial filesystem, since
       the latest packages do not mount it by default
 .
 rootstrap (0.2-1) unstable; urgency=low
 .
   * New code release
     - Includes man page (Closes: #137849)
     - No need to try to remount root read-only now that cramfs is used
       (old cruft)
     - Removed unused -p option; I forget what it was intended to do
   * Depend on debootstrap >= 0.1.16.4, because that version fixes
     --include
 .
 rootstrap (0.1-1) unstable; urgency=low
 .
   * Initial Release.
