sgml-base (1.26+nmu2) unstable; urgency=low Starting with this release the SGML super catalog /etc/sgml/catalog will be replaced with a symbolic link to /var/lib/sgml-base/supercatalog. The latter file can be regenerated from the contents of the /etc/sgml directory including all files ending in .cat using the new update-catalog --update-super option. This call will be (dpkg) triggered by packages placing files in /etc/sgml. The transition to this way of handling the super catalog will loose user changes to /etc/sgml/catalog. Further overwriting of user changes will happen until all packages using dh_installcatalogs are built with a fixed version of debhelper. Sorry for the inconvenience. -- Helmut Grohne Mon, 30 Apr 2012 16:37:01 +0200
