Hi,

I've released schroot version 1.4.1.  This is a point release for
squeeze.  This is a bugfix release, fixing a number of small issues
found in 1.4.0 (bugs 565625 566141 566879 566941 567409 567416 568187
and 569671).  It also includes translation updates, GNU/kFreeBSD
portability work (testing and feedback sought) and now allows
comments in all configuation files.

A major change is the tidying up of the conffiles under /etc/schroot.
These will be automatically migrated by the package maintainer scripts
(see below).

  Major changes in 1.4.1:

  1) A dchroot bug which prevented root from accessing chroots where
     they were not specifically granted access has been fixed.  root
     now has access to all chroots.  Note this only affected dchroot
     and dchroot-dsa, not schroot.

  2) The setup script configuration files 'script-defaults',
     'mount-defaults', 'copyfiles-defaults' and
     'nssdatabases-defaults', located in /etc/schroot, have been moved
     to /etc/schroot/default.  'script-defaults' has been renamed to
     'config', and 'mount-defaults' has been renamed to 'fstab'.
     Likewise 'nssdatabases-defaults' has been renamed to
     'nssdatabases' and 'copyfiles-defaults' to 'copyfiles'.  Note
     that the default setting for 'script-config' in schroot.conf has
     changed from 'script-defaults' to 'default/config'.  If manually
     setting 'script-config' to 'script-defaults' in your chroot
     definitions, this will require updating.  If unset, no changes
     are required.

  3) Additional setup script environment variables have been added:
     HOST, HOST_OS, HOST_VENDOR, HOST_CPU and PLATFORM.  These are for
     adding platform-specific logic to setup scripts, and are
     initially for FreeBSD and GNU/kFreeBSD compatibiliity.

  4) Additional FreeBSD compatibility work in setup scripts and block
     device code.  schroot should now work with current FreeBSD and
     Debian GNU/kFreeBSD systems.


Regards,
Roger
