localechooser (2.89ubuntu5) kinetic; urgency=medium

  * Remove debian/{dirs,install,postinst} which are files that were
    meant to go in the localechooser udeb, but now because that package is
    commented out, were being incorrectly used by debhelper for the
    localechooser-data package.

  * Drop the udeb from the control file.  We will never build it again, this
    package is never going to be in sync with Debian, and having this in
    debian/control causes localechooser to show up as a false-positive on
    archive rebuilds due to attempts to do the udeb-only per-arch builds
    under a noudeb build profile.

  * Add Assamese (as) and Odia (or) to languagelist
    - We provide language packs for both, and hence they should be
      selectable in the installer (LP: #1943768).

localechooser (2.89ubuntu1) hirsute; urgency=low

  * Merge from Debian unstable. Remaining changes:
    - Add encoding field to languagelist file and use the full SUPPORTED
      file rather than SUPPORTED-short.
    - Add a localechooser-data package containing lists useful for packages
      that create automatic installation scripts.
    - Drop fallbacks for Norwegian Bokmål and Nynorsk.
    - If OVERRIDE_SHOW_ALL_LANGUAGES is set in the environment, display all
      languages regardless of frontend.
    - localechooser: Use grep -a to make sure grep sees our language list data
      as ASCII and not random binary since it contains some glyphs for language
      name translations. Fixes at least one crash in Ubiquity.
    - Always support English, unless preseeded otherwise.
    - If the language question was already marked as seen and the answer
      didn't change, then don't recalculate the locale.
    - Cancel any locale preseeding if the user changes the language.
    - Simplify use of locale-gen using the new command-line argument
      facility in Ubuntu's locales package.
    - For cases where selecting a different location may imply a different
      dialect of the language, i.e. Portuguese and Chinese, take care to set
      LANG and LANGUAGE to something reflecting the language and LC_NUMERIC,
      LC_TIME, LC_MONETARY, LC_PAPER, LC_NAME, LC_ADDRESS, LC_TELEPHONE,
      LC_MEASUREMENT, and LC_IDENTIFICATION to something reflecting the
      location.
    - Allow localechooser to write out preferences to /etc/default/locale
      even if we're installing to a pre-configured rootfs. (LP: #1759442)
    - Make C.UTF-8 a configurable option and use the same codepaths as C.
    - Set C.UTF-8 as default when localechooser is not seen or preseeded.
    - Add Silesian (szl) to languagelist (LP: #1844653)
    - Add Kurdish, Central (ckb) to languagelist (LP: #1864680)

    - Simplify use of locale-gen using the new command-line argument
      facility in Ubuntu's locales package.
    - Add encoding field to languagelist file and use the full SUPPORTED
      file rather than SUPPORTED-short.
    - If the language question was already marked as seen and the answer
      didn't change, then don't recalculate the locale.
    - If OVERRIDE_SHOW_ALL_LANGUAGES is set in the environment, display all
      languages regardless of frontend.
    - Allow preseeding of debian-installer/language.
    - Install kbd rather than console-tools. Remove configuration file
      changes that: (a) modify a dpkg-handled conffile and so are policy
      violations; (b) are partly composed of workarounds for console-tools
      bugs not present in kbd; (c) are superseded by console-setup anyway.
