### Old Ubuntu Delta ###
wireless-tools (30~pre9-21ubuntu1) stonking; urgency=medium
* Merge with Debian unstable. Remaining changes:
- Remove the wireless-tools userspace package (LP #2075850)
* Dropped changes:
- Remove the ifrename package; it conflicts with our own udev package
which provides /etc/iftab support.
