Changelog
apt (2.6.0) unstable; urgency=medium
* The "unhappy bookworm" release. Too many changes needed to clarify
licensing.
[ Cyril Brulebois ]
* Teach apt-cdrom's scoring system about non-free-firmware (Closes: #1029751)
[ David Kalnischkies ]
* More support for non-free-firmware
- Have values in Section config trees refer to them in all components
- Add non-free-firmware component in documentation
- Suggest using non-free-firmware in update for Debian
* other bookworm regressions:
- Bump codenames in docs in preparation for Debian 12
- Detect trimmed changelogs and pick online instead (Closes: #1024457)
* Do not store trusted=yes Release file unconditionally
[ Miroslav Kure ]
* Czech program translation update (Closes: #1031008)
[ Bastian Germann ]
* machine-readable version of COPYING (Closes: #1019273), initial version
[ Julian Andres Klode ]
* Update lintian override info format in d/apt.lintian-overrides
* Further work on machine-readable COPYING file and the source code comments
to address licensing inadequacies:
- Address statements of public domain
- po/nb.po: Relicensing GPL-2.0 -> GPL-2.0+. Thanks Petter for chasing
down the copyright holders and getting agreement.
- COPYING: Group by license
- Address translation licensing concerns
- COPYING: Address RunScripts()
- We do not believe rsh was supposed to exclude GPL-3
This unfortunately creates a bit of churn, but updating the COPYING file
without addressing the actual licensing issues would not have solved the
bug.
