   * Fixed obvious brokenness (typos) in contrib/mdadm
   * Clean [1.2.3.4]:port format in known_hosts, thanks to
     Xuefer (Gentoo: #284563)
-  * Added completion for lintian and lintian-info
   * Patches from PLD Linux (thanks to Elan Ruusamäe):
     - avoid sed pipe as ps itself can omit the headers
     - improve service(8) completion, also look for "msg_usage"
