+ * Be more verbose in defining the build architecture and the host
+ architecture and consistently refer to architecture rather than
+ machine. (Closes: #591857)
+ * Correct the name of the Filesystem Hierarchy Standard in the package
+ description. Patch from Christoph Anton Mitterer. (Closes: #590696)
+ * Use the word "implemented" to describe required targets in
+ debian/rules, which is clearer about allowing wildcard rules. List
+ the required rules in their own paragraph rather than with the
+ paragraph discussing non-interactivity, and explicitly mark all rules
+ as either required or optional. (Closes: #536790)
+ * Update the ldconfig footnote listing the /etc/ld.so.conf directories
+ to remove the libc5 compatibility directories and mention the
+ multiarch triplet directories. Based on a patch by Charles Plessy.

+ packages), wrap it, and remove version restrictions that are older
+ than the version in oldstable.
+ * Add emacs23 to the build dependencies and remove the files generated
+ from org source from the revision control repository. Build and clean
+ files from org source unconditionally. Add Process.{txt,html} to the
+ list of files generated from org source. (Closes: #594274)
+ * Fix URLs under www.freedesktop.org to avoid permanent redirects.
+ Thanks, David Prévot. (Closes: #606869)

+ 7.2 where Pre-Depends is defined. Thanks, Mattias Ellert and Jonathan
+ Nieder. (Closes: #599944)
+ * Include the new (optional) copyright format that was drafted as DEP-5.
+ This is not yet a final version; that's expected to come in the
+ 3.9.3.0 release. Thanks to all the DEP-5 contributors and to Lars
+ Wirzenius and Charles Plessy for the integration into the Policy
+ package. (Closes: #609160)
