The "beating false positives off with a stick" release. . * checks/common_data.pm: + [RA] Add mktemp and sysvinit-utils as known essential packages. + [RA] Add Vcs-Mtn and Vcs-Browser to the known source package fields. + [RA] Add Kernel-Version to known udeb control fields. * checks/control-files: + [RA] Allow clilibs, but don't try to check the syntax of it yet. Thanks, Sebastian Dröge. (Closes: #378088) * checks/copyright-file: + [RA] Exclude the Affero General Public License from the check for references to the shared GPL copy. (Closes: #420077) + [RA] Replace yet another hand-rolled dependency parser with Dep. * checks/cruft{.desc,}: + [RA] Check for svk commit message files. * checks/debconf{.desc,}: + [RA] Remove the dependency check for SETTITLE since all debconf implementations back to oldstable support it. + [RA] Reduce the dependency check for error templates to info since all debconf implementations back to stable support it. * checks/debhelper{.desc,}: + [RA] Downgrade the dependency check for dh_python and the Python policy to info since all debhelpers back to stable support it. + [RA] Downgrade the dependency check for compatibility level V5 to info since all debhelpers back to stable support it. * checks/fields{.desc,}: + [RA] The CDBS Python rules only call pycentral or pysupport during the binary targets, so those dependencies can be safely moved to Build-Depends-Indep. Still allow them in Build-Depends, though, since that's where CDBS likes to put them. Thanks, Tristan Seligmann. (Closes: #420526) + [RA] Allow the Python core packages themselves to depend on python-minimal. + [RA] Remove the version constraints for python-central and python-support dependencies since stable released with a working version and they weren't in oldstable. + [RA] Remove the dependency check on dh_installxfonts for the X.Org transition since the debhelper released with stable does the right thing and this dependency is not useful for backports to oldstable. + [RA] Remove the version on the quilt dependency check. It's not worth the effort to maintain a separate version check for oldstable backports. (Closes: #420160) * checks/files{.desc,}: + [RA] Check for svk commit message files. + [RA] Don't consider {copying,license}.dtd extra license files; the Mozilla suite uses them for non-licenses. (Closes: #420558) + [RA] Use $pkg rather than reading fields/package for the x11-common pre-depend check. + [RA] Allow x11-common to install /usr/X11R6/bin. + [RA] Downgrade the pre-depends on x11-common requirement for packages installing into /usr/include/X11 or /usr/lib/X11 to info since it's only needed for upgrades from sarge or early etch. * checks/md5sums: + [RA] Don't warn about a missing md5sums file if the package contains nothing for which we would generate an MD5 checksum. Thanks, Andreas Beckmann. (Closes: #420465) * checks/manpages: + [RA] Cope with more uses of - in *roff escapes that don't need hyphen warnings. + [RA] Don't consider a binary an X binary if it's a symlink into /etc/X11. (seyon does something weird but probably legitimate.) + [RA] Fix manpage-for-non-x11-binary-in-wrong-directory and manpage-for-x11-binary-in-wrong-directory output. (Closes: #295072) * checks/menus{.desc,}: + [RA] In doc-base control files, check for Index fields for HTML and Info documents and require that each section after the header have a Format field. Thanks, Bernhard R. Link. (Closes: #419847) * checks/rules: + [RA] Listing a rule as a dependency of .PHONY is sufficient to mark it as present for GNU make and hence sufficient for Policy's requirement. Thanks, Peter Eisentraut. (Closes: #419446) * checks/scripts{.desc,}: + [RA] Packages calling update-xmlcatalog must depend on xml-core. Also avoid false positives when a package itself provides the program its maintainer scripts use. Thanks, Daniel Leidert. (Closes: #419461) + [RA] Check for maintainer scripts calling read (but exclude those that include /usr/share/debconf/confmodule on the grounds that they're probably only using it as a fallback). Based on a patch by Luk Claes. (Closes: #231770) + [RA] Add pike7.6 and ruby1.9 as valid interpreters. + [RA] Diagnose use of /bin/env with a more specific message than the generic unusual interpreter tag. + [RA] Remove the version constraint on the gconf-schemas check since all versions of gconf2 back to stable provide this script and it's not worth maintaining a separate check for oldstable backports. * checks/shared-libs{.desc,}: + [RA] Warn if a package declares dependencies in its shlibs control file that cannot be satisfied by that package (including via Provides). (Closes: #56440) . * reporting/harness: + [RA] Include overridden tags in the lintian output so that we can do statistical reporting on them and see them in lintian.log. * reporting/html_reports: + [RA] Create stub pages for maintainers with only lintian-clean packages. (Closes: #305173) + [RA] Sort packages on each maintainer's page. + [RA] Report statistics on info tags as well. + [RA] Generate better file names for maintainer pages with weird characters. + [RA] Fix Perl warnings.
