     .
       * debian/copyright:
         + [EB] Add Edward Betts.
     .
       * data/spelling/corrections:
         + [NT] Apply patches from Edward Betts to fix bugs in the correction
           word lists.  (Closes: #852005, #852084)
         + [NT] Apply patch from Edward Betts to remove corrections for
           "targetted" and "targetting" as they are valid alternative
           spellings in AU.  (Closes: #852145)
     .
       * t/runtests:
         + [NT] Re-sort test output after running the "post_test" sed script
           on the output.  This prevent test failures caused by the order
           changing on different architectures prior to the sed script is run
           (assuming the sed script otherwise normalises the differences
           correctly).
       * t/tests/cruft-general-upstream/pre_upstream:
         + [EB] Fix failing tests by making the fake flash object more
           convincing.  The most recent version of libmagic uses a more precise
           definition of the data within a flash file.  (Closes: #852891)
     .
       * vendors/ubuntu/main/data/changes-file/known-dists:

           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).

         + [NT] Add support for classification tags.

     .
       * debian/control:
         + [AB] Declare compliance with Debian Policy 3.9.8. (No other changes
           required.)
       * debian/lintian.install:

       * lib/Lintian/Collect/Binary.pm:
         + [JW] Apply patch from Ben Hutchings to consider source versions when
           testing nativeness of binary packages.  (Closes: #821902)
       * lib/Lintian/Relation.pm:

    Changes:

     .
       * Summary of tag changes:
         + Added:
           - maybe-not-arch-all-binnmuable

           - dh_desktop-is-deprecated
           - dh_undocumented-is-obsolete
           - restriction-formula-with-debhelper-with-conflicting-version

     .
       * checks/{control-file,fields}.{desc,pm}:
         + [JW] Remove confusing checks for build-conflicts related to build
           profiles.
       * checks/debhelper.{desc,pm}:

       * checks/version-substvars.{desc,pm}:
         + [NT] Add an experimental tag to check for arch:all
           binNMUability.  This is currently not supported at all
           and there is no known fix for the tag.  That said, it
           is still useful for determining how many packages might
           be affected by it in case Debian will support arch:all
           binNMUs.
     .
       * commands/reporting-sync-state.pm:
         + [NT] Use the sha256 instead of the sha1 checksum field
           for finding related files and checking which members
           have changed.

     .
       * data/spelling/corrections:
         + [JW] Add more corrections.
           Thanks to Mattia Rizzolo for suggesting one of them.
