[ Chris Lamb ]
* Emit an experimental warning for packages that ship a cron script
without an equivalent systemd .timer file. (Closes: #922862)
* Make orig-tarball-missing-upstream-signature a "dsc" check so it
also appears when running against non-.changes files. (Closes: #922557)
* Check all combinations of processables and binary package names in
order to avoid false-positives or unused override warnings in spelling
checks depending on whether a .deb or .dsc (etc.) is passed to Lintian.
(Closes: #921814)
* Prevent pkg-config-references-unknown-shared-library false positives:
- Ignoring entries such as -lfoo{install_suffix} as they are
interpolated at runtime by Autoconf. (Closes: #922511)
- Create an exception list and populating with shared
objects shipped by libc6-dev and libgcc1. (Closes: #922402)
- Manually add "gcc" as an exception.
* Use the source package name (not the package section) when checking for
uses-dpkg-database-directly exceptions. (Closes: #922530)
* Correct reference to mips64el architecture to ensure we emit
binary-from-other-architecture on this arch. Thanks to Helmut Grohne.
(Closes: #921573)
* Don't emit source-nmu-has-incorrect-version-number for uploads to
backports. (Closes: #923060)
* Ensure libpath-tiny-perl is installed regardless of nocheck build
profile as it is needed to generate the Pod documentation.
* Add dpatch to "nocheck" Build-Depends to avoid skipping tests
and then don't emit build-depends-on-obsolete-package for Lintian
itself as a result.
* Remove "nocheck" Build-Depends restriction for libcapture-tiny-perl and
specify it as a runtime dependency too.
* Don't emit source-contains-prebuilt-java-object against Lintian itself
as we ship a trivial HelloWorld.jar as a test fixture.
* Don't print "Offering to re-calibrate..." message if we aren't actually
about to offer.
.
[ Felix Lechner ]
* Ensure unpack loop stops when process succeeds after processable failed
to try and prevent Lintian from occasionally hanging. (Closes: #922737)
* Fix detection of security features in Portable Executable (PE)
binaries.
* Update recommendation in an update-menus long description that will not
trigger a check for full path names in maintainer scripts. (MR: !149)
* Interactively calibrate the expected tags in failing tests (MR: !145)
and use green and red terminal colors when adding or removing tags
during said calibration. (MR: !153)
* t/runtests:
* Split processing between scripts and tag tests.
* Split out test routines to process universal tags.
* Change options and arguments for stand-alone operation.
* Drop obsolete old-format-menu-file tag.
.
[ Guillem Jover ]
* Don't hardcode ".gz" in the output of the malformed-deb-archive tag's
extra information. (Closes: #922534)
.
[ Paul Wise ]
* Add several spelling corrections.
