Please sync darcs 2.2.0-1 (universe) from Debian unstable (main).

Explanation of the Ubuntu delta and why it can be dropped:
New upstream with lots of sexy fixes and some features. Can get into sync with
Debian. b/i/r. Changes (actually there are more than this; these are the changes
since 2.1.2):

  * In interactive record, it is now possible to get a list of
    currently selected hunks (command 'l'). (Christian Kellermann)
  * It is now possible to specify --in-reply-to when using darcs send, to
    generate correct references in the mail header.  (Pavel Shramov)
  * New repositories with --no-pristine-tree can no longer be
    created. This only has effect on legacy darcs-1 repositories.
  * Improvements in Windows support. (Salvatore Insalaco)
  * Performance improvements in `darcs repair` and robustness improvements in
    `darcs check`. (Petr Ročkai)
  * Extensive manual and online help improvements. (Trent W. Buck)
  * Support for GHC 6.10.
  * Overhaul of the make-based build system. (Trent W. Buck)
  * Cabal is now supported as a build method for darcs. (Duncan Coutts, Petr
    Ročkai, Gwern Branwen)
  * First stab at libdarcs -- when building through Cabal, all of darcs
    implementation is now exposed in modules. No API guarantees
    whatsoever. (Eric Kow)
  * Additions to Haddock documentation of the existing darcs modules for
    improved development experience.
  * Improvements in the testing infrastructure. (Christian Kellermann, Gwern
    Branwen)
  * Low-level optimisations in filesystem code. (Ganesh Sittampalam)
  * Numerous major and minor bug fixes, refactorings and cleanups by David
    Roundy, Eric Kow, Jason Dagit, Dmitry Kurochkin, Thorkil Naur, Salvatore
    Insalaco, Christian Kellerman, Florent Becker, Duncan Coutts, Reinier
    Lamers, Ganesh Sittampalam, Petr Ročka

Changelog since current jaunty version 2.1.0-1ubuntu1:

  * New upstream release.
  * Avoid curl-openssl (Closes: RU176).
  * Use dh(1) instead of CDBS.
