Changelog
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.
