* Minor improvements
- Rework wording of Tails installer in Wheezy. (Closes: #9672)
- Restart Tor if bootstrapping stalls for too long when not using
pluggable transports. (Closes: #9516)
- Install firmware-amd-graphics, and firmware-misc-nonfree instead
of firmware-ralink-nonfree, both from Debian Sid.
- Update the Tails signing key. (Closes: #10012)
* Test suite
- Add initial automated tests for Icedove. (Closes: #10332)
- Add automated tests of the MAC spooding feature. (Closes: #6302)
- Drop the concept of "background snapshots" and introduce a general
system for generating snapshots that can be shared between
features. This removes all silly hacks we previously used to
"skip" steps, and greatly improves performance and reliability
of the whole test suite. (Closes: #6094, #8008)
- Flush to the log file in debug_log() so the debugging info can
be viewed in real time when monitoring the debug log
file. (Closes: #10323)
- Force UTF-8 locale in automated test suite. Ruby will default to
the system locale, and if it is non-UTF-8, some String-methods
will fail when operating on non-ASCII strings. (Closes: #10359)
- Escape regexp used to match nick in CTCP replies. Our Pidgin
nick'
s
have
a
10
%
chance
to
include
a
^,
which
will
break
that
regexp
.
We
need
to
escape
all
characters
in
the
nick
.

-
Extract
TBB
languages
from
the
Tails
source
code
.
This
will
ensure
that
valid
locales
are
tested
.
As
an
added
bonus
,
the
code
is
greatly
simplified
.
