dpkg (1.13.2) experimental; urgency=low

  * md5sum has been removed, the coreutils or textutils version will be
    diverted to /usr/bin/md5sum.  Closes: #6633, #136110.
    The following bugs are filed against the dpkg md5sum, so no longer apply.
    Closes: #95755, #193877, #223381, #264195, #270241, #286632,
  * Take Replaces into account when installing packages; don't issue a
    "trying to overwrite" error if the file that already exists is in
    a package that Replaces the one being installed.
    Closes: #164595, #184635, #277890.
  * Allow actions and status changes to be logged to a file.  Disabled by
    default, uncomment line in /etc/dpkg/dpkg.cfg to enable.
    Closes: #957, #53376, #77109, #143882, #284499.
  * Don't truncate output of 'dpkg -l' when stdout is not a tty.
    Closes: #92263, #253860, #258608, #261822, #282790.
  * Fix further compilation problems with gcc 4.0.  Closes: #299699
  * Handle tar files without trailing slash in directory names.
    Closes: #287152.
  * Output arguments to maintainer scripts with -D2.  Closes: #237684,
    #296030.

  * Architecture Support:
    - Added ppc64.  Closes: #263743.
    - Split archtable into cputable and ostable, archtable is retained
      for compatibility with other packages that might use it only.
    - dpkg-architecture no longer canonises -t argument.  Closes: #173205.
    - dpkg-architecture output includes new DEB_*_ARCH_OS and
      DEB_*_ARCH_CPU variables that contain the Debian system and CPU
      names respectively.
    - dpkg-architecture outputs (mostly) correct GNU system names now,
      in particular this means that it will output "linux-gnu" instead
      of "linux".  You should use the new _ARCH_OS variables instead.
  * Documentation:
    - Add examples to dpkg-divert(8).  Closes: #291816.
    - Correct typo in dpkg-architecture(1).  Closes: #299090.

+# This file contains the list of architecture names in Debian's ‘sid’
+# distribution.
+#
+# Architecture names are formed as a combination of the system name
+# (from ostable) and CPU name (from cputable).  Support for new
+# architectures in dpkg is added in those files, architecture names
+# are only added to this file when added to the distribution.
+#
+# Column 1 is present for historical reasons only, and should be ignored.
+# Column 2 contains the Debian name for the architecture, which is returned
+# by ‘dpkg --print-architecture’.
