iucode-tool 2.1-1 source package in Ubuntu

Changelog

iucode-tool (2.1-1) unstable; urgency=medium

  * New upstream release:
    + The early initramfs cpio archives created by iucode_tool are now
      deterministic.  Instead of the current system time, the date of
      the latest microcode included in the early initramfs will be used.
    + There is a new option to minimize the size of the early initramfs:
      --mini-earlyfw.  This option causes iucode_tool to create a non-
      standard cpio archive which is typically 736 bytes smaller.
      WARNING: the microcode data file might not be visible to the
      regular initramfs when this mode is used.
    + iucode-tool will now create valid early initramfs archives past
      year 2038.
    + Change the strategy to add defensive padding to the early-initramfs
      archive: add an empty directory entry to the cpio archive in order
      to force the correct 16-byte alignment for the microcode data by
      default.  For --mini-earlyfs, keep the old strategy of appending
      extra NULs to the end of the microcode data file name.
  * debian/control: correct build-depends versioning of autoconf, automake.
    Correct the minimum required versions of autoconf and automake, which
    were bumped by upstream version 2.0.
  * debian/compat, rules, control: modernize and enable full hardening
    + update debian/rules copyright date
    + switch to dh-based simplified debian/rules (debhelper v9)
    + opt-in to full hardening for PIE and bindnow
    As a side-effect, we now fully honor DEB_*_STRIP, etc.
  * debian/watch: add uscan watch file.
    Add a debian/watch uscan version 3 watchfile to automatically check the
    newest iucode-tool release tarball version, using the "latest" branch of
    the iucode/releases gitlab project.
  * debian/changelog: fix typos on older entires.
  * debian/copyright: switch to DEP-5 format.
