local/0001-build-Disable-GFDL-info-files-and-useless-man-pages.patch build: Disable GFDL info files and useless man pages
We do not install the info file due to GFDL, and because it would
require an inetutils-doc package. Nor the man pages from upstream
generated with help2man as they are problematic for cross-building
and contain no additional information to what is already available
via --help output.

Instead we ship our own proper man pages.

Not forwarded upstream due to GNU policies regarding man pages.		 Guillem Jover <guillem@hadrons.org> not-needed vendor, Debian 2010-06-09
local/0002-inetd-Change-protocol-semantics-in-inetd.conf.patch inetd: Change protocol semantics in inetd.conf
Readd parts of the original patch that got botched when applied
upstream.

* src/inetd.c (getconfigent) [IPV6]: Change default family to IPv4 for "tcp"
and "udp". Change "tcp6" and "udp6" to support IPv4 mapped addresses.		 Guillem Jover <guillem@hadrons.org> yes vendor, Debian 2010-09-06
