Closes: 807695 883053 883653
Changes:
 lintian (2.5.62) unstable; urgency=medium
 .
   * Summary of tag changes:
     + Added:
       - invalid-potfiles-in
 .
   * checks/changelog-file.pm:
     + [CL] Correct operator precedence in "epoch-change-without-comment"
       to prevent a false positive when an epoch is present but is unchanged
       between versions.
     + [CL] Improve output of epoch-change-without-comment to include the
       actual version change.
   * checks/python.desc:
     + [CL] Also match, for example, "python2.7:any" when checking the
       "dependency-on-python-version-marked-for-end-of-life" tag, not just
       "python2.7".  (Closes: #883053)
     + [CL] Detect an invalid debian/po/POTFILES.in instead of bailing out.
       (Closes: #883653)
   * checks/scripts.desc:
     + [AB] command-with-path-in-maintainer-script: Add more references,
       especially the reason why "if [ -x /usr/bin/<command> ]; …" is
       indeed bad (#769845 and the mail referred to in there). Rewrite
       recommendations, explain what conditions should be given if someone
       intents to override this tag. (Closes: #807695)
   * checks/source-copyright.pm:
     + [CL] Correct false positives in the
       "source-includes-file-in-files-excluded" tag where a Files-Excluded
       of "lib/*" would be triggered for "foolib/filename".
     + [CL] Correct another false positive in the
       "source-includes-file-in-files-excluded" tag where we would warn when
       the maintainer has removed upstream's debian/ directory and then we
       would trigger it on the maintainer's replacement files.
     + [CL] List all files violating source-includes-file-in-files-excluded,
       not just the first one we encounter per "Files-Excluded" entry.
     + [CL] Ignore .pc dirs for source-includes-file-in-files-excluded,
 .
   * data/spelling/corrections:
     + [AB] Remove "publically". It's a seldom, but valid English word
       (c.f. https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/publically) and causes false
       positives in the OpenSSL license.
 .
   * t/scripts/spellintian.t:
     + [AB] Ensure that "publically" is not re-added as spelling correction
       in the future again to avoid hundreds of false positives in the
       OpenSSL license.
