* Summary of tag changes:
+ Added:
- debhelper-base-compat-level-is-missing
+ Removed:
- debhelper-compat-file-is-missing
- lzma-deb-archive
- uses-deprecated-compression-for-data-tarball
* Add Lintian::Processable::Source::CompatLevel to determine compat level
using `dh_assistant`
* Update Lintian::Check::Debhelper to use new compat_level API and drop
hand-grown processing of compat versions
* Rules.pm: Use `compat_level` processable to determine compat value instead
of checking for `debhelper-compat` in B-D
* Rename tag: debhelper-compat-file-is-missing to
debhelper-base-compat-level-is-missing
* d/control: Add debhelper to Depends (for dh_assistant)
* Add override for "binary-package-depends-on-toolchain-package" due
to `dh_assistant` (See: #1072741)
* tests:
- package-uses-x-dh-compat: Drop debhelper-compat-virtual-relation hint
- documentation/legacy-binary): Use `dpkg-deb --root-owner-group --build`
instead of `dpkg --build` to avoid permission hints (and re-enable test)
- fields/recommended/generic-empty): Re-enable test and drop hints for
`Section` and `Priority` in `.deb` as the default values are now
populated by `dpkg` (re-enabled test)
- Update tests to use updated tag name
debhelper-base-compat-level-is-missing
- Adjust hints with `dh_assistant` indicated compat level and adjust tag
hint for conflicting dh versions
.
