The "happy Nanaimo hacking" release . * checks/binaries: + [RA] Detect klibc binaries from their requested interpreter and allow them to appear static. (Closes: #328850) * checks/common_data.pm: + [RA] Include all combinations of cpu and os from the dpkg cputable and ostable files (as of dpkg 1.13.16). (Closes: #337034, #357433) + [RA] Include a list of known X metapackages. * checks/control-file{.desc,}: + [RA] Warn if debian/control in a source package is a symlink. * checks/copyright-file{.desc,}: + [RA] Don't assume mentions of GPL or GNU General Public License after what look like mail headers are referring to the license of the package. Be a bit more specific in the old FSF address check to avoid false positives on other Cambridge, MA addresses. Reported by Adam C. Powell IV. (Closes: #205934) * checks/debconf: + [RA] Allow Indices as a template field. cdebconf uses it and debconf ignores it. Reported by Frans Pop. (Closes: #361986) * checks/debdiff{.desc,}: + [RA] Warn if the diff contains debian/substvars. Based on a patch by Michael Ablassmeier. (Closes: #359646) * checks/debhelper.desc: + [RA] When explaining the warning about deprecated debhelper compatibility versions, mention that debhelper defaults to version 1 if not set anywhere. (Closes: #360711) + [RA] Move simple man page references from Info into Ref. * checks/fields{.desc,}: + [RA] Allow dpatch in Build-Depends for arch-independent packages if it is invoked in clean, build-arch, or binary-arch. + [RA] Only list examples of non-standard architectures, since there are now too many combinations to list completely. + [RA] Catch dependencies on X metapackages, based on a patch by Josh Triplett. No packages are allowed to build-depend, and only packages that look like metapackages (arch: all, no files outside of /usr/share/doc) are allowed to depend. (Closes: #347169) + [RA] Look for an explicit section of unknown, probably left over from dh_make templates, and diagnose it with an error rather than a warning. Reported by Jari Aalto. (Closes: #355032) + [RA] Reorganize dependency checking based on debian/rules analysis. Diagnose missing build dependencies on the helper packages we know about, catch cases where Build-Depends-Indep should be Build-Depends because of the clean target, and make sure users of dh_python build-depend on python. yada is no longer a special case. (Closes: #242789, #278290) + [RA] Check for conflicting with dependencies and build-conflicting with build dependencies. (Closes: #122760) + [RA] Allow xfonts-utils in dependencies. It's not actually an X font package. * checks/files{.desc,}: + [RA] For the X.Org 7 transition, add explicit checks for fonts and binaries installed in /usr/X11R6. Rename the existing check for other files in /usr/X11R6 since the tag had a pluralization error and we want package maintainers to see the error again and reconsider whether to ignore it. No packages should be installing files in /usr/X11R6 going forward. Remove the policy cross-refs for right now until policy catches up. * checks/manpages: + [RA] Use system_env instead of system and sanitize the environment before running man -l out of caution and to avoid extraneous output when CDPATH is set. Reported by Marc Haber. (Closes: #360217) * checks/nmu{.desc,}: + [RA] Warn if debian/changelog in a native source package is a symlink and skip checks rather than aborting if it was a symlink to a file we didn't unpack. (Closes: #257650) * checks/po-debconf: + [RA] Use system_env instead of system out of caution and to avoid extraneous output when CDPATH is set. * checks/rules{.desc,}: + [RA] A new set of checks that parses debian/rules and checks for required rules, debian/rules as a symlink, and the correct first line. Based heavily on previous work by René van Bevern. (Closes: #294926, #311786) * checks/scripts{.desc,}: + [RA] Ignore text inside single quotes and, for most checks, text inside double quotes when checking for bashisms. Reported by Frank Küster. (Closes: #344266) + [RA] Change canonical zsh path to /bin/zsh at the request of the zsh maintainer. (Closes: #360534) + [RA] Change the check for broken error handling with invoke-rc.d to maintainer-script-hides-init-failure to be more generic and explain what the test looks at. Add the script name and line number and fix a typo. Thanks, Marc Haber. (Closes: #360214, #360216) + [RA] Warn when maintainer scripts run init scripts directly and don't use invoke-rc.d. Thanks, Lars Wirzenius. (Closes: #353659) + [RA] Find missing ucf dependencies and restructure the code to allow easier addition of similar checks. (Closes: #261891) + [RA] Add python2.5, lua50, gbx, and gbx2 to the list of valid interpreters. (Closes: #361601, #361644, #362566) * checks/shared-libs: + [RA] Limit shlib-without-PT_GNU_STACK-section to only those architectures where gcc always adds the section. Thanks to Frans Pop for the report and Bastian Blank for the architecture list. (Closes: #357636) . * collection/objdump-info: + [RA] Unset CDPATH before running cd to avoid strange effects from the user's environment. + [RA] Run readelf -l to collect interpreter information. . * lib/Dep.pm: + [RA] Add initial support for analyzing architecture information in dependencies instead of ignoring it. * lib/Read_taginfo.pm: + [RA] Add support for formatting man page references from Ref. * lib/Util.pm: + [RA] Add system_env, like system but sanitizing the environment. . * man/lintian.1: + [RA] Mention the new rules check class.
