[ Thorsten Glaser ]
* Fix installation of NEWS{.Debian,}
* rngtest: better linewrap of startup blurb
* init script: improve logic determining device to use:
- when autodetecting, test-read from the device before considering
it; note in syslog if that fails (manually set HRNGDEVICE will
be used as-is if the character device exists)
- syslog if no device was found but don’t exit with errorlevel ≠ 0
any more
- when (re‑)starting the service during package installation or
upgrade, output informative message if no usable device was found
* Run HRNGSELECT before checking the devices
* Update documentation and package descriptions
* Add option controlling periodical statistics syslog (Closes: #444326)
* Modernise packaging (dh 13, Policy 4.5.0, LDFLAGS, lintian, etc.)
* Prepare rng-tools takeover
* Ask users in multiple places that any modules should be loaded early
