[ Reason ]

memtest86+ 5.01-3.1 in stable is very old and doestn't run correctly
on recent hardware.

[ Impact ]

Fail to run memtest86+ on their hardware.

[ Tests ]

manually tested.

[ Risks ]

Completely rewritten from scratch. So could have bugs not yet known.


[ Checklist ]
  [X] *all* changes are documented in the d/changelog
  [X] I reviewed all changes and I approve them
  [X] attach debdiff against the package in (old)stable
  [X] the issue is verified as fixed in unstable

[ Changes ]

Comeplete new upstream version.
Rewritten GRUB integration scripts.
New ISO/USB bootable Images.

[ Other info ]

I requested a backport [1] but Thomas Goirand (zigo) recommend me to ask you 
for a
complete update in stable [2].
If this will be rejected, I recommend to remove memtest86+ from stable
and hopefully somebody uploads the new version to backports.
As a DM I can't do this myself.
