Changelog

base-files (6.5ubuntu1) precise; urgency=low

  * Resynchronise with Debian.  Remaining changes:
    - Branding changes.
    - Add /etc/lsb-release file.
    - Add lsb-release-udeb package.
    - Record md5sums of unmodified /etc/profile versions so that we can
      upgrade it automatically.
    - Various bashrc extensions.
    - Do not install /usr/local dirs with staff group writeability, as there
      are cases where somebody can become any user but root (like NFS).
    - Update the motd upgrade handling to know about /etc/motd.tail.
    - Add default /etc/networks file.
    - Added information about the docs web page.
    - Restore order line in /etc/host.conf with a comment.
    - Ship /root mode 700 by default.
    - Add update-motd scripts.

base-files (6.5) unstable; urgency=low

  * Modified default /etc/profile to not read /etc/bash.bashrc if bash
    is invoked as /bin/sh. Closes: #632887.
