Host architecture binaries are generally not executable so such files are useless for cross builds. (Closes: #794295) * checks/cruft.desc: + [CL] Add debian/changelog to the file-contains-trailing-whitespace example to make it even easier to copy-paste. * checks/fields.{pm,desc}: + [CL] Warn about library packages with excessive priority. Thanks to Josh Triplett for the report. (Closes: #834290) * checks/files.{pm,desc}: + [CL] Warn about Multi-Arch: foreign packages that ship CMake, pkg-config or static libraries in public, architecture-dependent search paths. Thanks to Helmut Grohne for the initial patch and report. (Closes: #882684) + [CL] Raise the certainty of multiarch-foreign-shared-library from "wild guess" to "possible" on the suggestion of Helmut Grohne. + [CL] Test for packages shipping "gschemas.compiled" files. Thanks to Andreas Beckmann for the idea. (Closes: #884142) + [CL] Warn if a package ships compiled font files. Thank you to Andreas Beckmann for the report. (Closes: #884165) * checks/python.pm: + [CL] Also check for packages installing modules called "site" or "docs" into the global namespace. (Closes: #769365) * checks/scripts.desc: + [CL] Update description of python-script-but-no-python-dep to refer to ${python3:Depends}. Thanks to Mattia Rizzolo. (Closes: #660718) + [CL] Prevent a false-positive in missing-dep-for-interpreter by matching ABI-versioned virtual packages for Erlang. Thanks to Jean Parpaillon for the report. (Closes: #810204) * checks/source-copyright.desc: + [CL] Update description of source-includes-file-in-files-excluded to clarify the potential problem and to reference the relevant wishlist bug against git-buildpackage. * checks/python.pm: + [CL] Clarify that new-package-should-not-package-python2-module triggers when there is a single changelog entry as well as providing general guidance where upstreams have not ported to Python 3 yet. . * commands/lintian.pm: + [CL] Correct parsing of "jobs=42" in lintianrc. If specified, it would be coerced to a boolean resulting in a value of 1. + [CL] Allow the tag display limit to be configured via the "--tag-display-limit" command-line argument or "tag-display-limit" in lintianrc. (Closes: #813525) + [CL] Make -v imply --no-tag-display-limit. (Closes: #812756) . * data/files/privacy-breaker-fragments: + [CL] Don't match, for example, "FB.login()" when used as a documentation example. (Closes: #884296) * data/spelling/corrections: + [PW] Add a number of corrections. . * doc/lintianrc.example: + [CL] Add missing "jobs" entry. . * profiles/pureos/main.profile: + [CL] Add a profile for Purism's PureOS. (Closes: #884408) . * reporting/images/*.png: + [CL] Apply patch from Ville Skyttä that runs the .PNG files through the "zopflipng" minimiser tool to save space. (Closes: #884559) . * reporting/templates/maintainer.tmpl: + [CL] Add links from each maintainer page (which does not include pedantic tags, etc.) to the corresponding package on the full report, Thanks to Paul Wise for the idea and report. (Closes: #884572) . * vendors/pureos/main/data/changes-file/known-dists: + [CL] Add data file for PureOS.
