     + [NT] Remove code related to python-support.
   * checks/nmu.{desc,pm}:
     + [NT] Create a separate tag for extra whitespace around uploader name
       in the changelog.  Thanks to Ben Wiederhake for the suggestion.
       (Closes: #801647)
   * checks/phppear.{desc,pm}:
     + [JW] Apply patch from Mathieu Parent to make dh-php* and php*-dev
       package names unversioned.
   * checks/rules.pm:
     + [NT] Add ":any" to all python dependencies.  Thanks to Barry Warsaw
       for reporting the bug.

   * checks/scripts.desc:
     + [NT] Suggest dh_python2 / dh_python3 instead of dh_pysupport and

       (Closes: #818607)
   * checks/shared-libs.{desc,pm}:
     + [NT] Rename and clarify some ldconfig related tags to better reflect

       reporting this.  (Closes: #809577)
     + [NT] Merge and remove some ldconfig related tags.  Notably
       unconditionally flag all uses of ldconfig in maintainer scripts
       (outside glibc) as these should be replaced by a trigger.
   * checks/version-substvars.pm:
     + [NT] Apply patch from Javier Serrano Polo that makes the check
       ignore all multi-arch quantifiers (when determining if the
       dependency is for an external package).  (Closes: #822269)

     + [NT] Clean up entries in temporarily labs fully once they have been
       processed.  This avoids accumulating files on the disk for archive-
       wide runs done in temporary labs.  This mitigates some of the
       excessive disk usage for archive-wide runs  (See #779228).
   * commands/reporting-lintian-harness.pm:
     + [NT] Add support for classification tags.

       the Lintian::Tutorial files (as they are just POD files).
   * debian/{manpages,rules}:
     + [JW,NT] Generate and install manpages of Lintian's perl modules.
       (Closes: #816862)

       - dh_undocumented-is-obsolete

       - restriction-formula-with-versioned-dpkg-dev-conflict
 .
   * checks/{control-file,fields}.{desc,pm}:
     + [JW] Remove confusing checks for build-conflicts related to build

       time substitution works again.  Thanks to Stuart
       Prescott for reporting the issue.
 .
   * helpers/coll/objdump-info-helper:
     + [JW] Apply patch from Dan Nicholson to keep TEXTREL entries from the
       dynamic section.  (Closes: #819506)
 .
   * lib/Lintian/Check.pm:
     + [JW,ADB] Don't ignore midword punctuation characters when
       spell-checking.  (Closes: #818003)  Thanks to Andreas Beckmann for
       the bug report.
 .
   * t/tests/binaries-missing-depends-on-libc/debian/debian/rules:
     + [JW] Apply patch from Dan Nicholson to pass --no-as-needed to the
