Store /etc under Version Control

Edit Package etckeeper
http://joeyh.name/code/etckeeper/

The etckeeper program is a tool to let /etc be stored in a git,
mercurial, bzr or darcs repository. It hooks into yum to automatically
commit changes made to /etc during package upgrades. It tracks file
metadata that version control systems do not normally support, but that
is important for /etc, such as the permissions of /etc/shadow. It's
quite modular and configurable, while also being simple to use if you
understand the basics of working with version control.

- updated Source to 1.13:
  + Ignore check-mk-agent-logwatch's FHS violating
    /etc/check_mk/logwatch.state. Closes: deb#753903
  + Only allow [-a-z_] in etckeeper commands to avoid any possible
    directory traversal etc issues.
  + update-ignore, uninit: Fix parsing of ignore files containing '\'
- added etckeeper-avoid-packagelist.patch:
  Because it is slow that some package manager make the packagelist
  (eg, rpm -qa), high-level package manager might time out
  (eg. zypper in/remove).
  So I added this patch.
  If you think that the packagelist is unnecessary,
  set AVOID_PACKAGELIST=1 in etckeeper.conf.
  Or if you want to avoid it temporarily,
  you can use environment variable ETCKEEPER_AVOID_PACKAGELIST=1 .
  (eg, ETCKEEPER_AVOID_PACKAGELIST=1 zypper update).
  This patch was sent to upstream, but Joey does not accept it yet.
  Please see also gh#joeyh/etckeeper#17 .

  Their files need "Buildrequires: python-devel bzr",
  but did not write them, so they were not installed untill now.

  It is desirable that etckeeper packages are same version.

  They should belong libzypp.
  + remove them.
