Closes: 201102 316163 322877
Changes: 
 doc-linux (2005.09-1) unstable; urgency=low
 .
   * new upstream release (20050901)

     Laptop-HOWTO GTEK-BBS-550
   * Removing the Laptop-HOWTO closes: #201102
   * Added HOWTOs:
     Oracle-9i-Fedora-3-Install-HOWTO
   * Updated HOWTOs:
     Athlon-Powersaving-HOWTO Compaq-T1500-HOWTO
     DB2-HOWTO Debian-Binary-Package-Building-HOWTO
     Debian-and-Windows-Shared-Printing Ecology-HOWTO
     Online-Troubleshooting-HOWTO Plug-and-Play-HOWTO

   * Upstream fixed the link in the HOWTO-HOWTO placeholder
     (Closes: #316163)
   * Fix URL to subversion repository in debian/copyright
   * Clean up packaging handling of placeholders a bit
   * Clearly indicate the license terms for HOWTOs that dual licensed

   * Clean up our maintainer scripts a bit:
     - let produce the install-doc calls by dh_installdocs again, it

     - remove error-unwind support for pre-woody versions
