       the extracted source dir.
     + [NT] Deprecate --root and LINTIAN_ROOT.  These are largely
       obsolete as Lintian can now automatically determine the
       proper LINTIAN_ROOT.  To avoid surprises, lintian will
       now exit with an error if requested to use a different
       LINTIAN_ROOT than the one lintian expected to use.

       and --[no-]user-dirs when they are not the first
       arguments and called as lintian-info.

       lintian-info is now handled by commands/info.

     + [NT] If the index file does not include a "root" directory,
       then create a fake one.
   * lib/Lintian/Data.pm:
     + [NT] Make a special case to allow "original-maintainer" by
       default in all non-"Debian" profiles.  Thanks to Nick
       Black for the report.  (Closes: #697565)
   * lib/Lintian/Relation.pm:
     + [NT] Allow "pkg" to imply "pkg:any", but without permitting

 .
   * reporting/harness:
     + [NT] Fix bug that caused harness to not remove old log
       entries on incremental runs.
     + [NT] Clear LINTIAN_ROOT environment variable if set.
   * reporting/html_reports:
     + [NT] Copy (rather than symlink) the lintian.log to the
       generated website.
 .

     + [NT] All tests moved to t/tests/legacy-* and the test
       runner removed.

       Cwd::realpath.

       see what collections are currently being run (like in the

       tools.

       with --check-part and document that --tags causes the option
       to be ignored.
     + [NT] Accept the magic token "{VENDOR}" as a part of the value
       to --profile.
     + [NT] Add new command line option "--ignore-lintian-env" to make
       lintian ignore all environment variables starting with LINTIAN_.
     + [NT] Add a new command line option --no-display-experimental
       and --default-display-level.  These options can be used to
       override some display options from the config file.
       (Closes: #703985)
     + [NT] Also search for the lintianrc file in XDG_CONFIG_{HOME,DIRS}.

       still accepted.
     + [NT] Stop looking for lintianrc files in the LINTIAN_ROOT.
     + [NT] Stop exporting LINTIAN_LAB to processes run by lintian.
     + [NT] Use of --root (or setting LINTIAN_ROOT) will now imply
       the option --no-user-dirs by default.
 .
   * lib/*:
     + [NT] Use "parent" instead of the "base" pragma.
   * lib/Lintian/Collect.pm:
     + [NT] Add "is_non_free" method to easily check of a given
       package appears to be non-free.
   * lib/Lintian/Collect/Binary.pm:
     + [NT] Re-instate the "TEXTREL" marker.  This fixes a regression
       where shared-libs compiled without pic was not reported.
       Thanks to Dmitry Shachnev for the assistance in debugging this.
     + [NT] Recognise packages in section "metapackages" as a
       metapackage.  Thanks to Axel Beckert for the report.
       (Closes: #698610)
   * lib/Lintian/Collect/Package.pm:
     + [NT] Ensure the "root" entry of indices do not contain itself.
       (Closes: #695866)
     + [NT] Add warning to unpacked and debfiles when they are given a
       path with leading slash or dot-slash.
     + [NT] When a check requests access to a raw file (or dir) in the
       package, ensure that the resulting path does not "escape" the
       top level directory.  This should preemptively guard against some
       (but not all) traversal attempts.
   * lib/Lintian/Path.pm:
     + [NT] Document that link_resolved is not sufficient to test the
       "safeness" of a symlink.
   * lib/Lintian/Command/Simple.pm:
     + [NT] Use constant time lookup access instead of linear scan with
       "hashref" wait.
   * lib/Lintian/Lab.pm:
     + [NT] Add lab_query method to handle lab-queries directly.
     + [NT] Fix bitrot of repair_lab and rename it to repair for
       consistency.
   * lib/Lintian/Lab{,/Manifest}.pm:
     + [NT] Add support for grouping of manifests.
   * lib/Lintian/Lab/Manifest.pm:
     + [NT] Fix an error in visit_all when sufficient keys for an
       exact look up was given.
   * lib/Lintian/Processable.pm:
     + [NT] Fix issue where packages loaded from the lab indices would
       sometimes get a wrong source-version.
   * lib/Lintian/Relation/Version.pm:
     + [NT] Add and export "versions_comparator" that can be used for
       sorting purposes.
   * lib/Lintian/Tag/Info.pm:
     + [NT] Use "&amp;" in the manpage ref URLs to generate proper HTML.
       Thanks to Vasudev Kamath for reporting the issue.
     + [NT] Produce a more helpful error message when a tag has an
       invalid severity or certainty.  (Closes: #703978)
   * lib/Lintian/Tags.pm:
     + [NT] Deal with parsing an ambiguous override a bit better.  This
       solves false-positive malformed-override, where Lintian misparsed
       the tag name as a package name.  (Closes: #699628)
   * lib/Lintian/Util.pm:
     + [NT] Reject partially signed Deb822 files.  Most Deb822 files
       are not signed at all; but those that are should be completely
       covered by a signature.  (Closes: #696230)
     + [ADB] Fix a typo in the matching of expected delimiters for some
       signed messages; thanks Samuel Bronson.
     + [NT] Add sub to check if a path is contained within a given dir.
     + [NT] Fix bug in resolve_pkg_path that made it resolve some links
       incorrectly.

       "safeness" of a symlink.
 .
   * man/lintian.pod.in:
     + [NT] Document that --pedantic is the same as "-L +=pedantic".
       (Closes: #703989)
     + [NT] Fix typo of the "override" variable in the config example.
 .
   * private/refresh-locale-codes:
     + [JW,NT] Ignore the "zxx" locale code, which means "No
       linguistic content".  (Closes: #692548)
 .
   * reporting/config:
     + [JP] Remove unused $GRAPH_DIR configuration option.
   * reporting/graphs/{statistics,tags}.gpi:
     + [JP] Tweak graph size to allow longer labels, and force font
       family.
   * reporting/harness:
     + [NT] Add --to-stdout option to emit log information to
       stdout as well as the log files.
     + [NT] Always schedule packages in groups.  Otherwise, binNMU'ed
       binaries would not be tested together with their source
       package (and architecture independent packages).
     + [NT] Schedule groups in chunks (default 512 per chunk).
       This makes the Lintian processes shorter and makes memory
       reclaimable sooner.  (Closes: #695839)
     + [NT] Remove "make-shift" lab-query support now that
       Lintian::Lab supports it.
   * reporting/html_reports:
     + [NT] Update xrefs to include source version.
     + [NT] Generate a text file suitable for Apache's RewriteMap to
       map source packages to the full report for that source.
       Thanks to Joerg "Gannef" Jasper for the suggestion to use
       RewriteMap.  (Closes: #696960)
     + [JP] Fix version labels glitches.
     + [JP] Use global $GRAPHS_RANGE_DAYS.
     + [JP] Pass graph variables to index and tag templates.
   * reporting/lintian.css:
     + [JP] Tweak graph alignment.
   * reporting/templates/{packages,maintainer,tag}.tmpl:
     + [NT] Properly handle multiple versions of the same source and
       add versioned anchors to them.
   * reporting/templates/{index,tag}.tmpl:
     + [JP] Include history graphs in HTML templates.
   * reporting/templates/tag.tmpl:
     + [NT] Fix "empty <ul>" tag when tag has no "extra" information.
       Thanks to Vasudev Kamath for reporting the issue.

     + [NT] Catch unknown Java class versions.
     + [NT] Catch uses of Java7 byte code as an experimental

       packages have the proper dependencies for Java7 byte
       code.  (Closes: #673276)

     + [NT] Check if some collections can be skipped for existing

       certain checks can be now be rerun without having to run
       "unpacked".

       level 2 (or higher).

Description:
 lintian    - Debian package checker
Closes: 662134 667895 669911 671387 673106 673109 673112 673198 673352 673449 673451 673611 673613 673862
Changes:
 lintian (2.5.8) unstable; urgency=low
 .
   Its like 2.5.7, only with less false positives and no FTBFS.
 .
   * checks/binaries{,.desc}:
     + [NT] Fix a too strict regex causing false-positives for
       biarch packages.  This was a regression introduced in
       version 2.5.7.  Thanks to Sven Joachim for reporting it.
       (Closes: #673106)
     + [NT] Demote certainty of hardening-no-stackprotector to
       wild-guess and move it to debian/extra-hardening profile.
     + [NT] Skip hardening-no-fortify-functions for binaries only
       using the unprotected memcpy.  This greatly reduces the
       number of false positives for binaries compiled with
       gcc-4.7 -O2 (or higher optimization).  (Closes: #673112)
   * checks/files:
     + [NT] Properly handle symlinks in icon directories.  Thanks
       to Nicholas Breen for the report and Felix Geyer for the
       patches.  (Closes: #673352)
     + [NT] Ignore wrong sizes on images in animations as it may
       be a method to implement the animation.  Thanks to Matthias
       Klumpp for the report and Felix Geyer for the patch.
       (Closes: #673862)
     + [NT] Ignore wrong icon sizes if the size difference is at
       most 2px.  Thanks to Felix Geyer for the patch.
   * checks/scripts:
     + [NT] Refactor the %versioned_interpreters into a new
       data file.
   * checks/shared-libs:
     + [NT] Fix false positive "dev-pkg-without-shlib-symlink"
       for shared libraries using "libtool -release X.Y".
       Thanks to Sven Joachim for the report.  (Closes: #673109)
     + [NT] Fix false positive "dev-pkg-without-shlib-symlink"
       for shared libraries installed in /lib.  Lintian now
       correctly expects the dev-symlink beneath /usr/lib.
       Thanks to Guillem Jover for the report.
   * checks/source-copyright:
     + [NT] Use the in-memory contents of the copyright file
       instead of re-reading the file when parsing it as a
       DEP-5 copyright file.
 .
   * collection/objdump-info{,.desc}:
     + [NT] Drop -D flag for readelf when looking for symbols.
       This makes some checks more reliable in Ubuntu.  Thanks
       to Marc Deslauriers for the report and the patch.
       (Closes: #673451)
 .
   * debian/control:
     + [NT] Add versioned Build-Depends on dpkg-dev (>= 1.16.1~)
       as the test suite relies on it.  Thanks to Luca Falavigna
       for reporting it.
     + [NT] Update the description to mention that the version
       of Lintian is calibrated for version 3.9.3 of the Policy.
   * debian/lintian.install:
     + [NT] Remove usr/share/lintian/data - Lintian does not
       need it and dpkg will not replace the dir with a symlink.
 .
   * data/scripts/interpreters:
     + [NT] Add falcon, gbr3, jython and ngp2 as known interpreters.
       (Closes: #669911, #671387, #662134, #667895)
   * data/scripts/versioned-interpreters:
     + [NT] New file.
     + [NT] Added python2.7 to the list of known Python 2 interpreters.
   * data/spelling/corrections:
     + [RA] Remove corrections for "writeable" and "overwriteable".  These
       spellings are permitted by the OED in UK English.  (Closes: #673611)
     + [NT] Add correction for "pointer".
 .
   * lib/Lintian/Collect/*.pm:
     + [NT] Localize "$_" to avoid truncating caller's variable.
       (Closes: #673613)
 .
   * t:
     + [NT] Generate empty ".so" files used in the test.  This
       resolves an issue where dpkg-source would exclude them
       causing a FTBFS.  (Closes: #673198)
     + [NT] Fix test failure in derivatives where some hardening
       flags are enabled by default.  Thanks to Marc Deslauriers
       for the report and the patch.  (Closes: #673449)

   * checks/*:
     + [NT] Remove some old tags that are no longer useful.
       (Closes: #663516)
     + [NT] Migrate to sorted_index from sorted_file_info.
     + [NT] Explicitly import needed subs from L::Util.
   * checks/apache2{,.desc}:
     + [NT] New files to check for apache2 related packages.  Thanks
       to Arno Töll and Stefan Fritsch for the patches.
       (Closes: #668546)
     + [NT] This check is not enabled by default.  It can be used
       via the debian/extra-apache2 profile.
   * checks/binaries{,.desc}:
     + [NT] Move embedded library data to a data file.
     + [NT] Add ELF hardening checks.  Thanks to Kees Cook for
       report and the patches.  (Closes: 650536)
     + [NT] Replace architecture tables with data files.
     + [JW] Check for missing Python3 numpy ABI dependency.
       (Closes: #671024)
   * checks/changelog-file:
     + [NT] Output the correct line number for the "line-too-long"
       tag.  Thanks to Arno Töll for the report.  (Closes: #657402)
   * checks/changes-file{,.desc}:
     + [NT] Remove Ubuntu specific handling of distribution names.
       Instead replace it with a more generalized one that derivatives
       can reuse by extending vendor specific data files.  Thanks to
       Daniel Dehennin for the suggestion.  (Closes: #648777)
   * checks/control-file:
     + [NT] Rewrote parts to use Lintian::Collect for fetching data.
   * checks/cruft{,.desc}:
     + [NT] Check for quilt control dirs in the debian packaging files.
   * checks/deb-format{,.desc}:
     + [NT] Replace old udeb compression tag with a more general
       one.  (Closes: #664600)
     + [NT] Remove logic for checking if a deb is meant for
       Ubuntu.  Instead unconditionally emit the tag and let the
       vendor profiles handle it.
   * checks/debconf:
     + [NT] Special case debconf providers for purge-debconf tag.
       Generally they cannot use db_purge in postrm (for obvious
       reasons), so the tag will be a false-positive in such
       cases.
   * checks/fields{,.desc}:
     + [NT] Add devref reference.
     + [NT] Remove special handling of the Ubuntu specific field,
       "original-maintainer".  This field is now handled by vendor
       specific data files.  (Closes: #649852)
     + [JW,NT] Check for common mistakes with preview release and
       release candidate versions.  For non-native packages, this
       check is only done on initial uploads of new upstream
       releases.  Thanks to Stefano Rivera and Julian Taylor for
       their additional suggestions.  (Closes: #649277)
   * checks/filename-length.desc:
     + [ADB, NT] Reword description of package-has-long-file-name.
       Thanks to Andreas Beckmann for suggestion.
   * checks/files{,.desc}:
     + [NT] Remove "manual" lazy loads of data files.
     + [NT] Remove code for the uses-FHS-doc-dir tag.
     + [NT] Extend icon checks to all icon directories and look for
       raster images in "scalable" icon directories.  Thanks to
       Paul Wise for the report and Felix Geyer for the patches.
       (Closes: #628189)
   * checks/group-checks:
     + [NT] Include Provides when checking for conflict relations.
       Thanks to Damyan Ivanov for the report.  (Closes: #672615)
   * checks/java:
     + [NT] Ignore "codeless" jars if they appear to be maven
       javadoc jars.  Thanks to Ludovic Claude for the patch.
       (Closes: #660845)
   * checks/lintian.desc:
     + [NT] Updated the description of the override tags.
   * checks/manpages{,.desc}:
     + [RA] Detect hyphen used as minus sign following a groff \f[C] font
       change.  Thanks, Iustin Pop.  (Closes: #664471)
   * checks/menu-format:
     + [NT] Move menu section lists into a data file.
     + [NT] If a package is missing a menu icon, check its direct strong
       dependencies built from the same source (if any) for the icon.
       This fixes false-positives menu-icon-missing in some cases.
   * checks/menus{,.desc}:
     + [NT] Remove "manual" lazy load of data file.
   * checks/nmu:
     + [NT] Remove Ubuntu specific code to handle their (lack of) NMUs.
       These tags are instead suppressed by the Ubuntu profile.
   * chekcs/rules:
     + [NT] Fix false-positive "ignores-make-clean-error" tag caused by
       using make with -C and a dir containing the letter "i".  Thanks to
       Tobias Hansen for the report.  (Closes: #671537)
   * checks/scripts{,.desc}:
     + [NT] Mention devref 6.4 in command-with-path-in-maintainer-script.
       Thanks to Arno Töll for the patch.
     + [NT] Do not emit unusual-interpreter if the package provides the
       interpreter itself.
     + [NT] Ignore the lack of exec bit on th debconf shell modules.
   * checks/standards-version.desc:
     + [NT] Add references to the Policy upgrading checklist.  Thanks to
       Simon Paillard for the patch.
 .
   * collection/*:
     + [NT] Use Lintian::Collect to access the package index.
   * collection/bin-pkg-control{,.desc}:

     + [NT] Compress index output and bump version of index.
   * collection/java-info{,.desc}:
     + [NT] Compress java-info output and bump version of java-info.
   * collection/objdump-info:
     + [NT] Use "fail" from Lintian::Util.pm rather than embedding a
       copy of it.
     + [NT] Use Lintian::Collect to find ELF files.
     + [NT] Replace all usage of objdump with readelf.
       (Closes: #614034)
     + [NT] Compress objdump-info output and bump version of objdump-info.
   * collection/strings{,.desc}:
     + [NT] Compress strings output and bump version of strings.
 .

     + [NT] New file.
   * data/binaries/embedded-libs:
     + [NT] New file.
     + [NT] Add libav libraries.  Thanks to Andres Mejia for the
       suggestion and the suggested patch.  (Closes: #666765)

   * data/menu-format/menu-sections:
     + [NT] New file.

   * lib/Lintian/Collect/Package.pm:
     + [NT] Remove an extra level of quoting in index.
     + [NT] Remove root dir from sorted_index.
     + [NT] Keep trailing slash in dir names for file_info.
   * lib/Lintian/Collect/Binary.pm:
     + [NT] Remove sorted_file_info as sorted_index now produces
       an identical list.
   * lib/Lintian/Data.pm:
     + [NT] Lazily load data files.
     + [NT] Allow pre-process sub to alter existing value for a key
       by passing the previous value as third argument.
     + [NT] Allow vendor specific data files.  They will be loaded
       from LINTIAN_ROOT/vendors/$profile/data.
   * lib/Lintian/Output{,/*}.pm:
     + [NT] Replace non-printables with "?" in output.
   * lib/Lintian/Profile.pm:
     + [NT] Normalize profile name and replace "parents" with

   * lib/{Util => Lintian/Util}.pm:
     + [NT] Renamed Util to Lintian::Util.
     + [JW] Consider duplicate fields a syntax error in dctrl files.
       Previously, duplicate fields were silently ignored (except
       when a separate tag would check for it).  (Closes: #664061)
     + [NT] Stop exported a majority of all subs by default.
 .
   * profiles/ubuntu/main.profile:

Changes:
 lintian (2.5.6) unstable; urgency=low
 .
   * checks/*:
     + [NT] Simplified some bit operations done on file permissions.
   * checks/binaries:
     + [NT] Fix false-negative missing-dependency-on-phpapi when the
       binary included a "SOVERSION" in its name.  Thanks to Ondřej
       Surý for the report.  (Closes: #662936)
   * checks/changelog-file:
     + [NT] Do not emit "no-upstream-changelog" for transitional
       packages.  Thanks to Paul Wise for the report.
       (Closes: #660076)
   * checks/cruft:
     + [NT] Added missing "unless" in the code.  Fixes false
       positive "source-contains-waf-binary".  Thanks to
       Dmitrijs Ledkovs for the report.  (Closes: #661561)
   * checks/debhelper:
     + [NT] Fix FP executable-debhelper-file-without-being-executable
       emitted for directories.  Thanks to Felix Geyer for the report
       and the patch.  (Closes: #663447)
   * checks/files.desc:
     + [NT] Fix a typo in a tag description.  Thanks to Ludovic
       Rousseau for spotting it.  (Closes: #663759)
   * checks/scripts:
     + [NT] Allow fontforge-nox as (alternative) provider for the
       fontforge interpreter.  Thanks to Martin Erik Werner for
       the report.  (Closes: #661363)
     + [NT] Move %interpreters map to a separate data file.
   * checks/source-copyright.desc:
     + [NT] Update references for copyright-format checks.  Thanks
       to Thijs Kinkhorst for the report and the patch.
       (Closes: #661778)
     + [NT] Added trailing slash to copyright-format URLs in tag
       descriptions for consistency with the policy.
 .
   * collection/*:
     + [NT] Removed assumption that "cwd" is the same as the
       directory for the package being examined.
   * collection/java-info:
     + [NT] Added missing "use Util".
   * collection/scripts:
     + [NT] Use "fail" from Util.pm rather than using an embedded
       copy.
   * collection/strings:
     + [NT] Use Lintian::Collect to find ELF files.
 .
   * data/scripts/interpreters:
     + [NT] New file.
 .
   * frontend/lintian:
     + [NT] Pass directory of the package to the collections.
 .
   * lib/Lintian/Check.pm:
     + [NT] Fixed false positive "*-address-malformed" if the local
       part of the email was "0".  Thanks to Christopher Vollick for
       the report.  (Closes: #663659)
   * lib/Lintian/Tag/Info.pm:
     + [NT] Fixed issue where "Experimental: no" was handled as a
       "yes" when generating a tag description.
   * lib/Util.pm:
     + [NT] If no locale can be found, just set LC_ALL to en_US.UTF-8.
       This fixes an issue with Lintian in backports when only
       locales-all is installed.  Thanks to Peter Palfrader for the
       report.  (Closes: #663459)
 .
   * private/runtests:
     + [NT] Support using en_US.UTF-8 from locales-all, when that is
       available.  This allows locales-all to be used as a substitute
       for locales when compiling Lintian on Squeeze.
 .
   * reporting/harness:
     + [NT] Corrected inverted logic when checking for dry-run.

   * checks/*:
     + [NT] Fixed assumptions about certain fields being present.
       Where needed, Lintian will make guesses to the most likely
       value (or the least "broken" value).
   * checks/binaries{,.desc}:
     + [NT] Allow libnss_* plugins in usr/lib.
     + [JW] Check for ELF binaries installed in unsafe paths in
       Multi-Arch: same packages.  (Closes: #650445)

     + [NT] Fixed embedded-library false-positive for tiff3.  Thanks
       to Jay Berkenbilt for the report.  (Closes: #660675)
   * checks/control-file{,.desc}:
     + [NT] Allow "pkg (= ${source:Version})" versioned dependency if
       pkg is architecture all.  This fixes a false-positive
       "weak-library-dev-dependency" for some mono packages.  Thanks
       to David Bremner for the report.  (Closes: #652602)
     + [NT] Emit a tag if there is a syntax error in d/control rather
       than just aborting the rest of the check.
     + [NT] Accepted patch from Gergely Nagy to catch dh-make vcs
       templates in comments.  Thanks to Paul Wise for suggesting this
       check.  (Closes: #657110)
   * checks/copyright.desc:
     + [RA] Rephrase copyright-with-old-dh-make-debian-copyright long
       description to be clearer about the legal status of copyright
       notices.  (Closes: #659574)
     + [RA,NT] Make copyright-with-old-dh-make-debian-copyright a
       pedantic tag.
   * checks/cruft{,.desc}:
     + [NT] Added dh-autoreconf as a build-depends alternative to
       libtool for suppressing ancient-libtool warning.  Thanks to

       settitle.
   * checks/debhelper{,.desc}:
     + [NT] Do not check executable debhelper files for brace
       expansion if compat is 9 (or greater).  It may be allowed by
       tool interpreting the file.
     + [NT] Added checks for handling executable files in the
       debian dir.  Thanks to Joey Hess and Arno Töll for the
       reports.  (Closes: #651572, #651330)
     + [NT] Added various dh-exec related checks.  Thanks to Gergely
       Nagy for the patches.  (Closes: #653071)
     + [NT] Removed tag for using dh_dhelp.  It is not shipped in
       debhelper anymore (not even Squeeze) and the tag is not
       emitted anymore (according to lintian.d.o).
     + [NT] Added check for missing compat file.  (Closes: #656885)
   * checks/fields{,.desc}:
     + [JW] Properly handle uploader names with commas.
       (Closes: #485705)
     + [NT] Removed uploader-address-missing tag.
     + [NT] Added section-mapping for (some) zope packages.  This
       fixes some false-positives where python-zope packages were
       wrongly identified as belong to the python section.
     + [NT] Fixed an issue where "doc-pkg-depends-on-main-pkg" would
       only be triggered if it was a "pre-depends" relation.
     + [NT] Use new Lintian::Architecture API.
     + [JW] Include ssh:// as a valid protocol for hg.
       (Closes: #655907)

     + [NT] Applied patch from intrigeri to remove "not-full-name"
       tags.  (Closes: #658031)
   * checks/files:
     + [JW,NT] Skip "Multi-Arch: same" check of gzip files if their
       install path contains the architecture.  (Closes: #650665)
     + [JW]  Fixed a false-negative "empty-binary-package" if the
       package contained the /u/s/doc/$pkg symlink.
       (Closes: #650959)
     + [NT] Allow fonts in packages starting with "fonts-".  This
       completes the fix for #646838.  Thanks to أحمد المحمودي
       for the follow up report.  (Closes: #651045)
     + [NT] Re-added swfobject.js to the list of known javascript
       libraries.  Thanks to Paul Wise for noticing it had been
       uploaded.
   * checks/group-check{,.desc}:
     + [NT] Check for file conflicts in binaries built from the same
       source package.  (Closes: #293838)
     + [JW] Added check for incomplete Multi-arch'ification.
       (Closes: #650838)
   * checks/menus{,.desc}:
     + [NT] Remove obsolete checks for wm-menu/wm-menu-config use in
       maintainer scripts.  The executables are not shipped in menu
       in Squeeze nor sid.  Furthermore the tags are not emitted in
       any package (according to lintian.d.o).
   * checks/nmu:
     + [JW] Properly handle uploader names with commas.
   * checks/po-debconf:
     + [NT] Remove special handling for packages using yada.
   * checks/rules:
     + [NT] Remove check for missing build-depends on yada.
   * checks/scripts:
     + [NT] Accepted patch from Evan Broder to check for missing
       versioned pre-depends on dpkg when using maintscript helper.
       This dependency is trivially satisfied in Debian, but may
       complicate Ubuntu LTS upgrades.  (Closes: #602249)
     + [NT] Accepted patch from James McCoy to recognize "racket" as
       a known interpreter.  (Closes: #652594)
     + [NT] Accepted patch from Martin Erik Werner to recognize
       "fontforge" as a known interpreter.  (Closes: #652736)
   * checks/shared-libs{,.desc}:
     + [JW] Check for Multi-Arch foreign packages shipping shared
       libraries in public library directories.  (Closes: #650444)
     + [NT] Use the new hwcap-dirs data file to determine hwcap dirs.
     + [NT] Ignore missing symbols/shlibs files for libc libnss
       plugins.
   * checks/source-copyright{,.desc}:
     + [JW] Allow a trailing slash in the DEP-5 1.0 URL.
       (Closes: #649813)
     + [NT] Use line numbers rather than "0-indexed" paragraph numbers
       in the emitted tags.  Thanks to Jari Aalto for the suggestion.
     + [NT] Recommend the URI to the copyright-format subpolicy as
       DEP-5 format specification URI.  Thanks to Helmut Grohne for
       the report.  (Closes: #651392)
   * checks/symlinks:
     + [NT] Ignore langpack symlinks if they appear to be consistent.
       Thanks to Evan Broder for the report.  (Closes: #650793)
 .
   * collection/ar-info:
     + [NT] Properly handle unpacked being a symlink.
   * collection/index:
     + [NT] Use Lintian::Processable::Package to determine source
       name and version.
   * collection/file-info{,-helper}:
     + [NT] Do not open non-files when double-checking gzip files.
     + [NT] Pass "-N" to file as Lintian does not need the aligned
       output.
   * collection/md5sums:
     + [NT] Properly handle unpacked being a symlink.
   * collection/source-control-file{,.desc}:
     + [NT] Removed as they are no longer needed.  They have been
       replaced by a smarter Lintian::Collect.
   * collcetion/unpacked:
     + [NT] Pass --no-check to dpkg-source when requested not to
       check signatures (via reporting/harness).
 .
   * data/{fields => common}/architectures:
     + [NT] Moved architectures to data/common.
   * data/debhelper/dh_addons-manual:

   * data/standards-version/release-dates:
     + [NT] Added release date for Standards-Version 3.9.3.

       Triplett for the suggestion, investigative work and the
       proposed patch to make this possible.  (Closes: #636086)
     + [JW] Add Build-Dependency on python-numpy and python-all-dev

       for the test suite.
   * debian/triggers:
     + [JW] Added trigger for libc-bin C.UTF-8 locale.  This ensures
       the internal Lintian locale can removed if libc-bin is upgraded
       after Lintian.
 .
   * doc/lintian.xml:
     + [NT] Corrected the runtime estimate for an archive-wide run.
       With 35 000+ packages, it can no longer be done in "a few

   * frontend/lintian:
     + [NT] Allow -U to be given more than once.
     + [JW,NT] If using a temporary lab, print its location when
       using --verbose option.  (Closes: #650433)
     + [NT] Fixed an issue where auto-clean would not see the real
       status of some collections.
     + [NT] Keep auto-cleaned collections until all processables in
       the group has been checked.
     + [NT] Attempt guess the version number when running in an git
       checkout or unpacked source dir.  Based on patch from Evan
       Broder.  (Closes: #650701)
     + [NT] Added support for the virtual "GROUP" type in Lab Queries.
       This will make Lintian select all packages related to a given
       source (and version).
     + [NT] Removed check loading code.  This has been moved into
       Lintian::Profile.
     + [NT] Always load a profile.
     + [NT] Allow TMPDIR in the configuration file.
     + [NT] Treat "pedantic" as a normal severity.  In previous
       release, pedantic tags were not affected by --display-level.
       A side-effect of this is that "pedantic" can no longer be
       used with "display-level" in the configuration file.
     + [NT] Produce a better error message when asked to process an
       URL or a path that is definitely not a valid lab query.
       Thanks to Nicholas Bamber for the report.  (Closes: #651332)
   * frontend/lintian-info:
     + [NT] Support new lintian.log format.

       mandatory parameter it is supposed to.
 .
   * lib/Checker.pm:
     + [NT] Removed, merged into frontend/lintian.
   * lib/Lintian/Architecture.pm:
     + [NT] New file.
   * lib/Lintian/Check.pm:
     + [NT] Do not check for missing uploader address as it cannot be
       done reliably anymore.
     + [NT] Applied patch from intrigeri to remove the "not-full-name"
       tags.
     + [NT] Only emit a spelling tag once for each spelling error in each
       field/file/text.
   * lib/Lintian/CheckScript.pm:
     + [NT] New file.
   * lib/Lintian/Collect/{Binary,Source}.pm:
     + [NT] Assume packages to be non-native when it cannot be
       accurately determined due to missing version field.
   * lib/Lintian/Collect/Binary.pm:
     + [NT] Fixed an error in parsing symbol names when using readelf
       as replacement for objdump.
   * lib/Lintian/Collect/Group.pm:
     + [NT] Made direct_dependencies properly handle udebs.  This fixes
       an error that would cause lintian to skip some checks for udebs.
   * lib/Lintian/Collect/Package.pm:
     + [NT] Map an owner/group of "0/0" to "root/root".  This avoids a
       number of false-positive ownership tags if only numerical
       ownership is available in the tarball.  Thanks to Thorsten
       Glaser for the report.  (Closes: #638278)
   * lib/Lintian/Collect/Source.pm:
     + [NT] Removed assumption that source packages always have a
       format field.
   * lib/Lintian/Lab.pm:
     + [NT] Added "is_temp" method to identify temp labs from static
       labs.
     + [NT] Corrected issue where the lab would record binaries as
       being from "main", even if their "section" field implied
       otherwise.
   * lib/Lintian/Lab/Entry.pm:
     + [NT] Properly strip whitespace when loading collection status.
   * lib/Lintian/Processable/Package.pm:
     + [NT] Use part of the file name as package name if the mandatory
       "Package" or "Source" fields are missing rather than choking.
   * lib/Lintian/Profile.pm:
     + [NT] Catch recursively defined profiles when the Profile field
       contains a (slightly) different name than the Extends field of
       its parent.  (Closes: #655469)
     + [NT] Handle loading of checks and tags.
   * lib/Lintian/Tag/Info.pm:
     + [NT] Accepted patch from Evan Broder to always output effective
       severity in tag descriptions.
     + [NT] Removed code to load tags from checks.  This has moved to
       Lintian::Profile.
   * lib/Lintian/Tags.pm:
     + [NT] Support architecture wildcards in overrides.
     + [NT] Emit "malformed-override" for architecture specific tags for
       unknown architectures and for "arch:all" packages.
     + [NT] Use a Profile to determine if a tag is suppressed or not.
     + [NT] Handle "pedantic" like the other severities.
     + [NT] Count experimental tags as a separate group of tags.  This
       fixes an issue where lintian would exit 1 if the only error
       tags emitted were experimental.  (Closes: #658971)
   * lib/Util.pm:
     + [NT] Create clean_env function to handle cleaning of the
       environment for children processes and finding a suitable UTF-8
       locale (when needed).
     + [NT] Report line number instead of "0-indexed" paragraph number
       in syntax errors.  Thanks to Jari Aalto for the suggestion.
       (Closes: #659909)
 .
   * man/lintian.pod.in:
     + [NT] Removed the notes that some options disable loading of a
       profile.  Lintian now always loads a profile when doing checks.
 .
   * private/refresh-archs:
     + [NT] Rewritten.
   * private/refresh-hwcap:
     + [JW] New file.
 .
   * profiles/debian/ftp-master-auto-reject.profile:
     + [NT] Refreshed.
 .

     + [NT] Removed useless "TODO" message from the log output.
     + [NT] Added -h/--help option to print usage information.
     + [NT] Added --dry-run option.
     + [NT] A source package is now only processed if one (or more) of
       its binaries are processed as well.
     + [NT] Also symlink $LINTIAN_BIN_DIR/gpgv to /bin/true when
       skipping signature checks.  This avoids issues when some tools
       prefers gpgv to gpg.
   * reporting/html_reports:
     + [JW] Properly handle uploader names with commas.
     + [NT] Use the severities from profiles when generating tag pages.
       Based on patches from Evan Broder.  (Closes: #650712)
     + [NT] Removed tag loading code, which has moved into
       Lintian::Profile.
     + [NT] Pass a profile to the templates (as $profile) instead of the
       old %all hash.
     + [NT] List only source packages on the "packages_X.html" pages.
   * reporting/templates/tags-all.tmpl:
     + [NT] Use $profile instead of the %all hash.

     + [NT] Remove some unused "use lib <expr>" from various checks.
     + [NT] Use Lintian::Collect::Group to find direct dependencies.
   * checks/binaries:
     + [JW] Allow binaries to use "/usr/lib/$srcpkg/" in RPATHs.
       (Closes: #642092)
     + [JW] Fixed a false-positive when using the multiarch dir in
       RPATH.  (Closes: #646817)

     + [NT] Renamed to group-checks{,.desc}.
   * checks/group-checks{,.desc}:
     + [NT] Added check for depending on lower priority packages built
       from the same source.  Only strong dependencies are considered.
       Thanks to Neil Williams for the report.  (Closes: #387166)
   * checks/common_data.pm:
     + [JW] Merged into Lintian::Check.
   * checks/cruft{,.desc}:
     + [NT] Escape path when using them in regexes.  (Closes: #642902)

       with native versions.  Thanks to Jari Aalto for the report.
       (Closes: #580048)
   * checks/copyright.desc:
     + [RG,NT] Clarified that the PHP 2.x license is only for the PHP
       interpreter and PEAR modules cannot use it.  Thanks to
       Thomas Goirand for the report.  (Closes: #616436)
   * checks/deb-format{,.desc}:
     + [NT] Added check for using .xz compression in deb files without
       versioned Pre-Depends on dpkg.  The severity is pedantic for
       Debian and serious for Ubuntu.  Thanks to Aaron M. Ucko for the
       rapport.  (Closes: #648350)
   * checks/dehelper{,.desc}:
     + [JW,NT] Check for versioned dependencies for some dh_commands.

     + [JW] Added check for missing python helpers when using python
       substvars in d/control.  (Closes: #582511)
   * checks/fields{,.desc}:
     + [NT] Fixed source-field-does-not-match-pkg-name.
     + [NT] Newlines from URIs in Vcs-* fields are stripped before they
       are checked.  These will fields will also cause a "multiline-
       field" tag if they contain newlines.
     + [JW,NT] Clarified that build-depends-on-metapackage is not only
       triggered by X11 metapackages.  (Closes: #642125)
     + [NT] Ensure transitional packages are in section oldlibs and
       priority extra.  Thanks to Josh Triplett for the report.
       (Closes: #645438)

       Ansgar Burchardt and Arno Töll for the bug report and patch.
       (Closes: #636599)

       transitional packages.  Thanks to Andreas Beckmann for the patch.
       (Closes: #642339)
     + [NT] Applied patch from Andrew Starr-Bochicchio to update the
       description of font-in-non-font-package to better reflect current
       font policy.  (Closes: #646838)
     + [JW,NT] Check that gzip files are compressed with -n in
       "Multi-Arch: same" packages.  (Closes: #649329)
       packages.
     + [NT] Corrected perl4 check, thanks to Dominic Hargreaves for the
       report and the patch.
   * checks/init.d{,.desc}:
     + [NT] Applied patch from Peter Eisentraut to detect init.d scripts
       without support for the optional "status" option.

       Michael Biebl and Petter Reinholdtsen for the bug report.
       (Closes: #604620)
   * checks/rules{,.desc}:
     + [JW] Fixed false negative "missing-build-dependency" when using
       "dh --with=X" rather than "dh --with X".  (Closes: #643714)
     + [NT] Do not emit missing-build-dependency for missing dh sequences,
       since the new tag will handle those.
     + [JW] Parse continuation lines in d/rules.  (Closes: #644021)
     + [JW] Check for versioned dependency on dpkg-dev when using the new
       dpkg makefiles.  (Closes: #646495)
     + [NT] Added tracker tag for the build-arch target goal.
       (Closes: #647227)
     + [JW] Fixed duplicate tags about missing dependency for
       dh_pycentral/dh_pysupport.  (Closes: #633507)
   * checks/scripts:
     + [RA] Exclude files ending in *.erb from several shell script
       checks.  ERB is a Ruby templating language, so these will probably
       have mixed shell and Ruby code and may not be executable.  Thanks,
       Laurent Arnoud.
     + [NT] Corrected perl4 check, thanks to Dominic Hargreaves for the
       report and the patch.  (Closes: #648532)

   * collcetion/debfiles:
     + [NT] Bail if the debian dir is a symlink.
 .
   * data/changelog-file/debian-dists:
     + [NT] New file.
   * data/changelog-file/ubuntu-dists:
     + [NT] Added the "precise".  Thanks to Loïc Minier for the
       patch.  (Closes: #644488)
   * data/debhelper/{dh_commands,maint_commands,miscDepends_commands}:
     + [NT] Refreshed.
   * data/debhelper/alt-dh_commands:
     + [NT] Renamed to dh_commands-manual.
   * data/debhelper/dh_commands-manual:
     + [NT] Support arbitrary dependency relations.  This new change
       also fixes a "duplicate" in the dependency output.
       (Closes: #643716)
   * data/fields/essential:
     + [NT] Add libc-bin to the list of known essential packages.
   * data/fields/obsolete-packages:

       Gergely Nagy for the report.  (Closes: #646420)
   * data/fields/virtual-packages:
     + [NT] Refreshed against sid.  Thanks to Gregor Herrmann for the
       report.  (Closes: #646604)
   * data/rules/deprecated-makefiles:
     + [JW] Added dbs makefiles, since dbs maintainer deprecated the
       package in 0.47.  (Closes: #646126)
   * data/shared-libs/ldconfig-dirs:
     + [NT] Add multi-arch dirs for hurd-i386.  Thanks to Julien
       Cristau for noticing that they were missing.
   * data/spelling/corrections:
     + [NT] Added a correction for "propagate" and "separate", thanks
       to Guillem Jover for the suggestions.
       (Closes: #644793, #646529)
     + [JW] Added a number of corrections.  (Closes: #645393)
 .
   * debian/control:
     + [CW] Mark lintian Multi-Arch: foreign (there does exist one
       Architecture: any package that Build-Depends: lintian, so this helps
       multiarch cross-building slightly).
   * debian/lintian.install:
     + [NT] Removed unpack which was removed.
 .
   * frontend/lintian:
     + [NT] Collections explicitly requested (by -U) are no longer
       auto-removed.  Previously the only way to prevent auto-removal
       was to use --keep-lab.
     + [NT] Removed all archive-wide testing code.  This has been moved
       into reporting/harness.  This deprecates a lot options and config
       variables (--arch, --archivedir, --area, --dist, --section and
       LINTIAN_{ARCH,ARCHIVEDIR,AREA,DIST}).
     + [NT] Support new lab query format, replacing the old "package
       name"-based search.
 .
   * lib/Lab{,/Package}.pm:
     + [NT] Removed, replaced by Lintian::Package{,::Entry}.
   * lib/Lintian/Check.pm:
     + [JW] Merged with common_data.pm.
   * lib/Lintian/Collect/Group.pm:
     + [NT] New file - Collect like API for group data.
   * lib/Lintian/Collect/Source.pm:
     + [JW] Fixed call to binary_field in binary_relation.
       (Closes: #641609)
   * lib/Lintian/Data.pm:
     + [NT] Fixed a file descriptor leak.
   * lib/Lintian/Lab{,/Entry,/Manifest,/ManifestDiff}.pm:
     + [NT] New files.  Replaces the Read_pkglists, Lab and
       Lab::Package modules.
   * lib/Lintian/Lab.pm:
     + [JW,NT] Correctly handle $TMPDIR not being an absolute path.
       (Closes: #642113)
     + [NT] New lab layout style resembling the "pool" dirs of the
       Debian mirrors.  This allows more than 32 000 packages of a
       given type in the laboratory.  It also allows multiple
       versions/architectures of the same package in static labs.
       A feature previously only enabled in temporary labs.  The new
       layout is incompatible with the old format.  (Closes: #641468)
   * lib/Lintian/Output.pm:
     + [NT] Minor refactoring to simplify creation of the FullEWI
       module.
   * lib/Lintian/Output/FullEWI.pm:
     + [NT] New experimental output.  More machine-friendly version
       of the normal Lintian output format.
   * lib/Lintian/Output/XML.pm:
     + [NT] Use self-closing tags (if possible) and do not write
       attributes with an empty value.
   * lib/Lintian/Processable.pm:
     + [NT] Reduced to an abstract class.  The "old" implementation
       has been put into Lintian::Processable::Package.
   * lib/Lintian/Processable/Package.pm:
     + [NT] New file.
     + [NT] Changed the "name" of changes files.  It is now equal to
       the name of the source package.  Previously it was the filename
       (without extension and without the dir part).
   * lib/Read_pkglists.pm:
     + [NT] Removed - replaced by Lintian::Lab::Manifest.
   * lib/Util.pm:
     + [NT] Stricten the parser to not accept a field name with a ":".
       This could cause the parser to eat the first part of the value,
       if it contained a colon and there was no space before the value.
       Thanks to Pino Toscano for reporting the issue.
     + [JW] Explicitly check that files are not encoded using ISO-2022,
       when they should be encoded with UTF-8.  (Closes: #643009)
     + [JW] Use "paragraph" and "field" rather than "section" and "tag"
       when referring to a Debian control file.
 .
   * man/lintian.pod.in:
     + [NT] Fixed a typo, thanks to Evgeni Golov for spotting it,
 .
   * private/generate-lintian-pod:
     + [NT] Document which collections are auto-removed by default in
       static labs.
 .
   * profiles/ubuntu/main.profile:
     + [NT] Disable no-upstream-changelog and lzma-deb-archive for
       Ubuntu.  Thanks to Evan Broder for the report and patch.
       (Closes: #648117)
 .
   * reporting/*:
     + [NT] Recognise and display pedantic tags.
     + [JW] Only emit "plus X overrides" if there any overrides.
   * reporting/{harness,html_reports}:
     + [NT] Do not accept LINTIAN_UNPACK_LEVEL nor LINTIAN_SECTION
       anymore.  The lintian frontend lost support for these in
       2.5.0~rc3.
   * reporting/harness:
     + [NT] Refactored to handle the archive-wide checking directly.
     + [NT] Use the new FullEWI output format for the archive-wide
       logs.
   * reporting/html_reports:
     + [NT] Ensure source tags appear before binary tags.
       (Closes: #580945)
     + [NT] Supports the FullEWI output format.
 .
   * t/*:
     + [NT] Skip some tests broken by a recent dpkg upload.
       (Closes: #643205)
 .
   * unpack/*:
     + [NT] Removed, no longer used.
