   * Summary of tag changes:
     + Added:
       - incompatible-java-bytecode-format
       - unknown-java-class-version
 .
   * checks/changes-file.desc:
     + [NT] Fix typo in tag description.  Thanks to Luca
       Falavigna for spotting it.
   * checks/files:
     + [NT] Use new gzip decompressor from L::Util.
   * checks/java{,.desc}:
     + [NT] Catch unknown Java class versions.
     + [NT] Catch uses of Java7 byte code as an experimental
       check.  It lacks the proper checks for cases where
       packages have the proper dependencies for Java7 byte
       code.  (Closes: #673276)
 .
   * collection/*:
     + [NT] Add missing load of the FileHandle module.
   * collection/java-info{,.desc}:
     + [NT] Use Archive::Zip instead of zipinfo + unzip to
       extract information from Jar files.
     + [NT] Limit java-info to files classified as "Zip Archive"
       by file(1).
   * collection/objdump-info:
     + [NT] Only call readelf once per binary.
     + [NT] Use xargs + a new helper to reduce the number of
       readelf calls even further.
   * collection/objdump-info-helper:
     + [NT] New file.
   * collection/strings:
     + [NT] Optimize for the "common case" file names with a
       fall-back to previous behaviour with special file names.
   * collection/strings-helper:
     + [NT] New file.
 .
   * debian/control:
     + [NT] Add (Build-)Dependency on libarchive-zip-perl.
     + [NT] Remove runtime dependency on unzip (replaced by
       libarchive-zip-perl).
     + [NT] Add explicit Build-Dependency on xz-utils instead
       of relying on dpkg-dev's dependency on it.
     + [NT] Add versioned xz-utils as alternative to xz-lzma
       or lzma.  (Closes: #678775)
     + [NT] Add missing suggests for lzma packages.  lzma is
       only used for source packages compressed with lzma.
     + [NT] Add suggests on libperlio-gzip-perl.
 .
   * frontend/lintian:
     + [NT] Check if some collections can be skipped for existing
       entries.  This is mostly useful for static labs, where
       certain checks can be now be rerun without having to run
       "unpacked".
     + [NT] Emit run times of collections and checks with debug
       level 2 (or higher).
     + [NT] Load lintian's libraries earlier.
     + [NT] Add new option "--jobs" to control the number of
       unpacking jobs Lintian will schedule in parallel.
     + [NT] Improve Lintian's job scheduler to schedule unpacking
       jobs on a group level rather than just a package level.
 .
   * lib/Lintian/Collect/[Binary,Package}.pm:
     + [NT] Use new gzip decompressor from L::Util.
   * lib/Lintian/CollScript.pm:
     + [NT] New file.
   * lib/Lintian/Util.pm:
     + [NT] Add gzip decompressor preferring libperlio-perl if
       available, but with fallback to a "fork+exec" of gzip.
     + [NT] Load Digest::SHA immediately like Digest::MD5.
