The "What's this Russ guy up to?" release . * checks/binaries{.desc,}: + [RA] Add a check for the new "Invalid operation" error from objdump -T. Skip shared-lib-without-dependency-information for files in /usr/lib/debug. * checks/changelog-file: + [FL] Add line number to output of wrong-bug-number-in-closes. Inspired by #349761 from Steinar H. Gunderson. * checks/common_data.pm: + [FL] Add armeb to %non_standard_archs as requested by Martin Michlmayr. (Closes: #350653) * checks/debconf: + [RA] Packages that depend on dbconfig-common are allowed to have config scripts without templates or an explicit debconf dependency. Reported by Marcus Better. (Closes: #344421) * checks/debconf.desc: + [RA] Clarify the necessary dependencies for packages using SETTITLE. (Closes: #349616) * checks/debhelper: + [RA] Recognize setting DH_COMPAT with := in addition to = in debian/rules. (Closes: #349272) + [RA] CDBS sets DH_COMPAT to 4 but doesn't export it. It does create debian/compat with that value if none was present. Reflect this behavior to avoid spurious compat level warnings when using CDBS. Based on a patch by Jay Berkenbilt. (Closes: #350228) * checks/fields: + [RA] Allow a quilt build-dependency for arch-independent packages if the quilt makefile rules are included. (Closes: #349273) + [RA] If clean depends on a rule that calls dh_clean rather than calling it directly, still allow debhelper in Build-Depends for arch-independent packages. Reported by Michael Stilkerich. + [JvW] Commented that Uploaders no longer will hit the multiline field issue, updated testsuite accordingly * checks/manpages: + [FL] Ignore more warnings ("cannot adjust line", "can't break line") in non-English manpages. (Closes: #349792) + [RA] cd into the parent directory before checking man pages with man so that .so inclusions are processed correctly. Based on a patch by Nicolas François. (Closes: #349614) * checks/menu-format: + [RA] Look for binaries in /usr/X11R6/bin, not /usr/bin/X11, per Policy 11.8.7. Thanks, Matej Vela. (Closes: #354890) * checks/menu-format.desc: + [RA] Use "menu manual" rather than "menu" for references to more clearly distinguish from the Debian Menu Policy. (Closes: #347510) * checks/po-debconf: + [RA] If there are template files in debian, assume the package uses debconf; don't require a dependency or config script. Patch by Thomas Huriaux. (Closes: #353294) * checks/scripts: + [RA] Allow /tmp in variable settings. It's likely to be a false positive. Reported by Frank Küster. (Closes: #344998) + [RA] Make the syntax checking of shell scripts more robust against filenames containing shell metacharacters. Reported by Michael Stilkerich. + [RA] Add fish and expectk to the list of valid interpreters. (Closes: #351624, #353770) + [RA] /usr/bin/tcl is provided by tclx8.3, not tcl. Reported by James R. Van Zandt. (Closes: #351324) + [RA] Allow more variations on leading magic to invoke some interpreter rather than then shell. Bypass the ELF magic check for scripts using magic that relies on having no leading #! line. Reported by Frank Küster. (Closes: #344269) + [JvW] Add check against package suffering from debhelper bug #337664, per Joey Hess, which had broken error detection (Closes: #358523) * checks/shared-libs: + [JvW] Fix postinst-must-call-ldconfig to also get emitted when there is no postinst at all, instead of just one lacking a ldconfig call + [JvW] Implement checks for "udeb:" lines in shlibs files (Closes: #357541) + [JvW] Consider also the soname version for shlibs checking, preventing some bogus 'duplicate' warnings, and actually throw a warning when soname version doesn't match + [JvW] Added error when udeb postinst calls ldconfig, that must never happen (thanks to Frans Pop for noticing, see #203056) . * debian/{control,copyright}: + [RA] Add Russ Allbery to Uploaders and copyright. + [JvW] Version dpkg-dev requirement to >= 1.13.17, for unpack/unpack-srcpkg-l2 . * frontends/lintian-info: + [RA] Avoid Perl uninitialized value warnings when given output that looks like lintian messages without tags. (Closes: #352606) . * collection/objdump-info: + [RA] Pass "Invalid operation" errors from objdump -T on to the check scripts instead of failing. (Closes: #249435) . * man/lintian.1: + [RA] Add references to dh_make, debhelper, dpkg-buildpackage, and linda in new reference sections. (Closes: #322288) * man/{lintian.1,lintian-info.1}: + [RA] Left-justify and disable hyphenation for readability. . * unpack/unpack-srcpkg-l2: + [JvW] Use -q with dpkg-source to surpress warnings about unsigned source packages.
