* Fixed some compiler warnings
* Make start-stop-daemon exit(1) when we don't find one of the
pid's we are trying to kill, in accordance with the man page.
* When running --configure on an already installed package, just
say it's installed, and not that it is in an unconfigurable
state
* Bah, add all the prefix/datadir... stuff back to the install
target in debian/rules (po/ doesn't use it)
* Add function to libdpkg that dpkg can call to make sure it's
compiled version matches that of the library. If it fails,
complain loudly, but allow to proceed
* Make dpkg check for uid 0 requirement, before checking the path
since not being root, is probably the reason that the PATH is
borked in the first place
* Make -p short for --print-avail, and -P short for --purge
* Fix typo in md5sum(1) man page
* start-stop-daemon: Add --background and --make-pidfile options
* update-alternatives: make sure we remove "old" symlinks when they
are no longer pertinent. Add /etc/alternatives/README that refers
to the update-alternatives(8) man page.
* dpkg-divert: Add check for being able to write to the old/new
destination before doing a rename. We fail on this, without
changing the diversion registry
* Fix bad regex in update-rc.d

time. chmod -x everything in /usr/lib to make lintian happy.
in the clean phase just rm -rf $(BUILD), we don't need to run
distclean and all that other stuff. Don't run "make dist", we
simply copy the .tar.gz that dpkg-source creates for the byhand

* Add mipseb to the archtable too, since mips and mipseb are
both viable names for the mips big endian arch
* Update dpkg-architecure's archtable
* Removed the maintainer-configure portion in debian/rules, since
we should be shipping the source with all the auto* stuff
already generated anyway
* Removed the ltconfig patch, and resort to a debian/rules fix
to libtool itself after running configure, much cleaner, and
reversible since libtool is a generated file
* Use DESTDIR when installing instead of specifying all our
dest dirs seperately in the make line. Also fix some of the
make files to use DESTDIR when installing files
* Regenerated .po files and dpkg.pot. Also added update.sh to the po/
subdir for easier regenerating for cvs only
* Make release.sh generate .gmo files
* Removed shlibs.default.i386. This is an obsolete file. We also no
longer use /etc/dpkg/ directory.

* Fixed `dpkg-deb --help' and dpkg-deb(1) from reporting --no-check
when it's actually --nocheck (went with the hardcoded option, so
this is just a documentation fix).
* Added better check in disk.setup for a working NFS server. Makes
it compatible with other non-Linux servers.
* Corrected dpkg(8)'s example of using dpkg -i (showed it used with
a .tar.gz instead of a .deb)
* Applied patch to correct improper TMPDIR handling in dpkg-deb
* When encountering an error in extracting the tar archives in the
packages, we should abort the install, not simply give an error
and continue.
* Make dpkg give the builtin arch if there was an error while exec()'ing
the C compiler with --print-architecture. We still fail if the
output from gcc was bad in some way, since they may be of importance.
