   * Summary of tag changes:
     + Added:
       - run-parts-cron-filename-contains-illegal-chars
     + Removed:
       - run-parts-cron-filename-contains-full-stop
 .
   * checks/*:
     + [NT] Migrate to new Lintian::Path API.
   * checks/fields:
     + [NT] Also classify lib*-cli-dev as belonging to the section
       cli-mono (rather than libdevel).  Thanks to Chow Loong Jin
       for the report and the patch.  (Closes: #675358)
   * checks/files{,.desc}:
     + [NT] Rename run-parts-cron-filename-contains-full-stop and
       have it catch "+" in the filename as well.  Add reference
       to policy 9.5.1 in the  tag description.
   * checks/init.d:
     + [NT] Use the proper regex for matching package names rather
       than an ad-hoc regex.  Thanks to Thorsten Alteholz for the
       report and suggested patch.  (Closes: #677142)
   * checks/shared-libs:
     + [NT] Reverse order of two subst expressions to prevent
       dev-pkg-without-shlib-symlink false positives.  Thanks to
       Aurelien Jarno, Yves-Alexis Perez and Stephen M. Webb for
       the reports and the patch.
       (Closes: #675826, #677310, #675832)
     + [NT] Clarify that dev-pkg-without-shlib-symlink is emitted
       on library and not "-dev" packages.
 .
   * collection/hardening-info:
     + [NT] Process binaries with hardening-check via xargs.  This
       greatly reduces the processing time for packages with many
       binaries (like some of the linux binaries).  Thanks to
       Bastian Blank for the heads up.
     + [NT] Skip kernel modules (.ko files).
   * collection/hardening-info-helper:
     + [NT] New file.
 .
   * data/*:
     + [NT] Refresh with tools/data from sid.
   * data/scripts/interpreters:
     + [NT] Replace ngp2 with ngraph.  Thanks to Koichi Akabe for
       the report.  (Closes: #675139)
   * data/spelling/corrections:
     + [NT] Add corrections for usage, invocation(s) and ancient.
 .
   * debian/changelog:
     + [NT] raster-image-in-scalable-directory was added in 2.5.7,
       not removed.
 .
   * frontend/lintian{,-info}:
     + [NT] Remove assumption that $ENV{HOME} is set/defined.  If
       $ENV{HOME} is not sent, user specific profiles will simply
       be ignored.
   * frontend/lintian:
     + [NT] Attempt to automatically determine what to process, if
       no packages are given and debian/changelog exists.  Thanks
       to Gilles Filippini for the suggestion.  (Closes: #676799)
 .
   * lib/Lintian/Check.pm:
     + [NT] Add regex to match valid package names.
   * lib/Lintian/Collect/Package.pm:
     + [NT] sorted_index now returns a list rather than a list ref.
     + [NT] Represent files (from index) as Lintian::Path objects.
   * lib/Lintian/Collect/Source.pm:
     + [NT] Recognise "Package-Type" as an alternative of the "X-"
       field of same name.  Thanks to Christian Perrier for the
       report.  (Closes: #677649)
   * lib/Lintian/Data.pm:
     + [NT] Gracefully handle the absence of $ENV{HOME}.
   * lib/Lintian/Path.pm:
     + [NT] New file.
