The "what did you do on your Christmas vacation?" release. . * checks/binaries: + [RA] Don't warn about unstripped binaries in .../lib/debug.

(Closes: #459293) * checks/debian-readme{.desc,}: + Combine readme-debian-{is,contains}-debmake-template and be less particular about the exact formatting of the dh-make template.

(Closes: #453931) + [RA] Only check for desktop files in /usr/share/applications. The ones elsewhere are too strange. (Closes: #459252) * checks/menus{.desc,}: + [RA] Spelling errors in doc-base files should only be warnings.

(Closes: #457067) + [RA] Exclude nsswitch modules from shlibs file checks. + [RA] ld.so may also look in /emul/ia32-linux/{lib,usr/lib}. . * debian/control: + [RA] Suggest libtext-template-perl, needed for HTML reporting. * debian/copyright: + [RA] Add my copyright statement. + [RA] Reference GPL-2, not the GPL symlink, reflecting our license. . * frontend/lintian: + [RA] Merge all override messages into a single message per run. Add -q/--quiet option to suppress that message. (Closes: #457513) + [RA] Allow + and . in tag names in overrides. Thanks, Stefan Fritsch. (Closes: #454790) + [RA] Check that the argument to --color is valid. + [RA] Warn about no package arguments unless --setup-lab or --remove-lab are given. Thanks, Damyan Ivanov.

Thanks, Julien Cristau. (Closes: #456802) * lib/Spelling.pm: + [RA] Stop doing capitalization checks on all files; there's too much of a risk of false positives.

(Closes: #458036) - Formatting changes (hopefully improvements) to the web pages. - New template-driven system for easier revision of the HTML. * reporting/lintian.css: + [RA] New minimal style sheet for the HTML reports. * reporting/templates/*: + [RA] New Text::Template page templates for the HTML reports. . * testset/runtests: + [RA] Test tags for valid characters.
