   [ Chris Lamb ]
   * Don't emit command-in-sbin-has-manpage-in-incorrect-section for
     symlinks; they are invariably provided for legacy/compatibility
     reasons. (Closes: #931951)
   * Update regex matches against lines in debian/rules correctly identify
     debhelper calls starting with environment modification (eg.
     "LC_ALL=C.UTF-8"). (Closes: #932128)
   * Factor out mangling of fatal error messages in the frontend
     configuration and correct the exit code if the specified profile does
     not exist. (Closes: #932215)
   * Expand the long description of the duplicate-files check to suggest how
     to remove them. Thanks to Rebecca Palmer for the suggested text.
     (Closes: #932411)
   * Downgrade command-in-sbin-has-manpage-in-incorrect-section to pedantic
     severity for the time being. (Closes: #570998)
   * Downgrade the severity and certainty of the
     package-supports-alternative-init-but-no-init.d-script tag for the time
     being. (Closes: #931889)
   * Correct multiple "gobject-introspection" typos. Thanks to Simon
     McVittie (smcv) for the pointer. (Closes: #933394)
   * Ignore all initscripts provided by the initscripts binary package
     instead of whitelisting issues individually or requiring overrides;
     these will never be regular-style initscripts. (Closes: #933383)
 .
   [ Felix Lechner ]
   * Do not trigger repack requirement when the Debian revision includes the
     "repack" indicator. (Closes: #931846)
   * Drop Depends and Build-Depends on libparse-debianchangelog-perl.
     (Closes: #933134)
   * Quote the spelling corrections that consist of multiple words.
   * Use the null character as the line delimiter in collection/md5sums.
   * Show logs for tests with parse errors when unattended and show all
     parse errors in TAP.
   * Always show log when failing to build a test package.
   * Store tags is separate, small files under ./tags.
   * Remove MatchVars check from PerlCritic configuration.
   * In the test runner, add an option to accept all tag changes.
