Hi Guys,

I have pushed up the last of the core changes for the transition. Please
check over and find what I've missed :-) if you are happy please release.


It turned out the problem was the dpkg commands I was testing with.
Going through a repository and aptitude it works just fine, though much
more time consuming to test.


When users have both squid and squid3 packages installed prior to
upgrade there is a bit of script guesswork about which squid.conf to use
on the end product. They will need to manually check the results OR,
just manually purge whichever package they dont want to use before upgrade.



I've also added libgnutls28-dev build dependency. Which will auto-enable
some HTTPS support in squidclient. For now the main squid binary is
still lacking so the wishlist bugs are left open (and unmentioned in
changelog).


PS. I would also still very much like to add a bit of squid.conf
processing logic to symlink old pre-3.2 helper binaries to the new
binary names (only if used in squid.conf). It will ease the process a
lot for very old installations. But is not critical for this next package.


Amos
