[ Otavio Salvador ]
* Improve code to choose between libc packages. Thanks to Luca Favatella
<email address hidden> for first version of the patch.

* Remove partial support for emitting translated progress messages with
gettext. Don't panic; d-i still has all the support necessary for this.
debootstrap's own support for doing this outside d-i with gettext's
shell bindings has been completely broken ever since it was added in
2003, though, and nobody has complained. Fixing it would require a big
pile of infrastructure and some non-trivial patches, plus arranging to
copy all the translations over from base-installer, and it just doesn't
seem worth it, so lose the cruft (LP: #188690).
* Export PATH, just to make sure. It isn't necessarily exported by shells
running from init=/bin/sh or similar, and the upstream bash maintainer
is unwilling to export it by default; it's easy enough to do so here
(LP: #320188).
debootstrap (1.0.11) unstable; urgency=low
* Add (Ubuntu) jaunty as a symlink to gutsy.
* Clarify that --second-stage is needed to complete the bootstrapping
process after --foreign.
* Fix --make-tarball= option (closes: #484869).
* Fix old Debian scripts and all Ubuntu scripts to cope with Anthony's
change in 1.0.8 to make --second-stage not bother recalculating required
and base.
* Rename 'repeat' to 'repeatn', since 'repeat' is a reserved word in zsh;
although strictly speaking this seems like an incompatibility in zsh
when linked to /bin/sh (closes: #340058).
* Fix --unpack-tarball= option (thanks, Torsten Landschoff; closes:
#500759).
* Fix handling of relative DEBOOTSTRAP_DIR (thanks, Mikhail Gusarov;
closes: #503460).
* Cope with ancient versions of chroot(8) that don't call chdir() (thanks,
Patrik Arvhult; closes: #350635).
* Recommend gnupg for --keyring option (thanks, Robert Millan; closes:
#467571).
* Note that you can't --include packages with non-required Pre-Depends
(see #487908).
* Mention /sys in EXAMPLE section of manual page, and use "defaults"
rather than "none" as the mount options for /proc (thanks, Raúl Sánchez
Siles; closes: #410787).
* Add /dev/console to devices.tar.gz (after all, MAKEDEV's 'consoleonly'
was added for boot-floppies in the first place; see https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-devel/2009-January/027230.html).
* Add support for squeeze (closes: #513488).
