(Closes: #557511) + [ADB] Exempt all binary packages built from the zlib source from the embedded-zlib test, not just those with binary package names matching zlib.+. Thanks, Mark Brown. + [RA] Spelling errors are no longer normalized to lowercase. * checks/changelog-file: + [RA] Suppress latest-debian-changelog-entry-without-new-date if the distribution is UNRELEASED. Thanks, Raphaël Hertzog. (Closes: #560149) + [RA] Also ignore too-long lines that consist of "See" followed by an unbreakable word. Thanks, Jari Aalto. (Closes: #560005) + [RA] Downgrade spelling tags to severity: minor. * checks/control-file{,.desc}: + [RA] Check for < and > version dependencies in debian/control since dpkg-source helpfully rewrites and fixes them in binary packages. Thanks, Jakub Wilk. (Closes: #557971) + [RA] Add a pedantic check for duplicates in relation fields in debian/control prior to the fixes applied by dpkg-dev. Thanks, Nelson A. de Oliveira. (Closes: #548819) + [RA] Fix a typo that skipped checks on the Build-Conflicts field. + [RA] Rework weak-library-dev-dependency to allow more approaches to bounding the shared library version. Skip complex cases with or'd dependencies and assume the maintainer knows what they're doing. Add more explanation to the long tag description. Thanks, Reinhard Tartler and Mike Hommey. (Closes: #557449) * checks/copyright-file.desc: + [RA] Downgrade spelling-error-in-copyright to minor and mention false positive possibilities and an override in the tag description. * checks/cruft: + [RA] Allow an automake or libtool dependency in Build-Depends-Indep to also satisfy the check for outdated helper files. Thanks, Guillaume Delacour. (Closes: #557530) + [RA] Ignore files in .pc, created by unpacking 3.0 (quilt) packages. Thanks, Ahmed El-Mahmoudy.

Thanks, Jonathan Wiltshire. (Closes: #557786) + [RA] For lib-recommends-documentation, exclude packages ending in -tools or -bin. Thanks, Jay Berkenbilt. (Closes: #557883) + [RA] Warn of build dependencies on python*-dev if no architecture- dependent packages are being built. Patch from Luca Falavigna. (Closes: #551793) + [RA] Add emacs22 to obsolete emacs versions. Thanks, Sven Joachim. (Closes: #560053) * checks/files{,.desc}: + [RA] New check for files present in both compressed and uncompressed form. Patch from Raphael Geissert. (Closes: #546174) + [RA] Allow /etc/sudoers.d files to be mode 0440 as recommended by sudo. Thanks, Thijs Kinkhorst. (Closes: #557353) * checks/huge-usr-share{,.desc}: + [RA] Increase the thresholds to 2MB (over 50%) and 4MB (any percentage), and mention the thresholds in the tag description. Thanks, Christoph Egger. (Closes: #561720) * checks/init.d{,.desc}: + [RA] Add checks for missing dependencies on $local_fs or $remote_fs based on what files appear to be used in the init scripts.

(Partly addresses #405454) * checks/manpages{,.desc}: + [RG] Check for spelling errors in English manpages. * checks/manpages.desc: + [RA] Clarify the long description of hyphen-used-as-minus-sign. Note that Debian groff is currently patched to avoid this problem, but hopefully that divergence can be removed. Reference groff-base's README.Debian for more information. (Closes: #548844) * checks/menus.desc: + [RA] Change spelling tags to severity: minor and certainty: certain since there are few false positives but minor is the correct severity. * checks/ocaml{,.desc}: + [RA] New checks for OCaml packaging. Contributed by Stéphane Glondu. (Closes: #528367) * checks/patch-systems{,.desc}: + [RA] Recommend DEP-3 in {dpatch,quilt}-patch-missing-description and reference the document. Thanks, Raphaël Hertzog. (Closes: #554025) + [RA] Allow DEP-3 headers in dpatch patches to satisfy the description requirement. Thanks, Paul Gevers. (Closes: #548640) * checks/rules{,.desc}: + [RA] Remove build-depends-without-arch-dep. If the package only builds architecture-independent packages, the distinction between Build-Depends and Build-Depends-Indep is meaningless and there's no reason, even pedantically, to worry about the separation. Thanks, Charles Plessy. (Closes: #552200, #555667) + [RA] Add a new check for DEB_AUTO_UPDATE_DEBIAN_CONTROL = yes. Thanks, Nelson A. de Oliveira. (Closes: #557120) . * collection/ar-info{,.desc}: + [RA] Collects the results of ar t on all *.a files, used by the new OCaml checks. Contributed by Stéphane Glondu. * collection/override-file: + [RA] Check debian/source/lintian-overrides before debian/source.lintian-overrides for source package overrides. Thanks, martin f krafft. (Closes: #554617) . * data/debhelper/*: + [ADB] Refresh against unstable. * data/fields/{perl-provides,virtual-packages}: + [ADB] Refresh against unstable. * data/files/fonts: + [ADB] Refresh against unstable. * data/output/ftp-master-{non,}fatal: + [RA] New data files listing tags that may result in an automated upload reject. . * doc/lintian.sgml: + [RA] Document debian/source/lintian-overrides as the new preferred location for source overrides. . * debian/control: + [RG] Add Raphael Geissert to Uploaders. + [RA] Add ${misc:Depends} to dependencies. * debian/copyright: + [RG] Add Raphael Geissert to maintainers. . * frontend/lintian: + [RA] Add options --suppress-tags and --suppress-tags-from-file to completely suppress the given tags. + [RA] Support comments and blank lines in --tags-from-file files. + [RA] Run the check modules in sorted order. + [RA] Create a global Lintian::Tags object and use it instead of setting variables in the Tags namespace. Move display level code from here to Lintian::Tags. Adjust calls for the new Lintian::Tags module. + [RA] Add option -F or --ftp-master-rejects which only checks tags that could result in an automatic upload reject. * frontend/lintian-info: + [RA] Add -h/--help option. Patch from gregor herrmann. (Closes: #558214) . * lib/Lintian/Check.pm: + [RA] Use Lintian::Tags instead of Tags. * lib/Lintian/Output.pm: + [RA] print_tag() now takes an additional argument containing override data and expects a Lintian::Tag::Info object as the tag info instead of a hash. + [RA] Adjust for the renaming of pkg in the file information hash. * lib/Lintian/Output/*.pm: + [RA] Adjust for print_tag() and file information hash changes. * lib/Lintian/Output/XML.pm: + [RA] Rewrite to be more readable and fix the tags attribute for overridden experimental tags. * lib/Lintian/Relation.pm: + [RA] Fix bugs in unparse() and duplicates() that caused duplicates() to crash when processing duplicates between an alternative and a regular package. Thanks, Jonathan Yu. (Closes: #559625) * lib/Lintian/Tag/Info.pm: + [RA] Add a code method that returns the tag code corresponding to the severity and certainty for a tag, based on get_tag_code from Tags.pm. + [RA] Add certainty, severity, and tag accessor methods. + [RA] Add a method saying whether a tag is experimental. + [RA] Record the check script corresponding to each tag and add an accessor method for it. + [RA] Add a sources method returning a list of sources referenced by a tag, based on the get_tag_source method from Tags.pm. * lib/Lintian/Tags.pm: + [RA] New module in a proper namespace replacing Tags.pm. A global Lintian::Tags object replaces the static variables in the Tags namespace, with new accessor functions, except for the tag metadata functions (which have moved to Lintian::Tag::Info). All handling of display levels is now here instead of in frontend/lintian. + [RA] Support suppressing a list of tags. + [RA] Suppress calling Lintian::Output::print_end_pkg for changes files, where we don't call print_start_pkg. This fixes an unmatched closing tag in the experimental XML output. * lib/Spelling.pm: + [RA] Use Lintian::Tags instead of Tags. + [RA] Ignore all-caps words of five characters or less for spelling corrections, since they are probably acronyms. Thanks, Michal Čihař. (Closes: #556456) + [RA] Report the original word in spelling errors rather than the normalized form. + [RG] Detect some multi-word spelling errors. + [RA] Remove the als to also correction. This is a word in several European languages, and the many hits on the archive are nearly all false positives. * lib/Tags.pm: + [RA] Removed in favor of Lintian::Tags. * lib/Util.pm: + [RA] Consume all output from extracting the control file of a binary package before closing the pipe. . * man/lintian.1: + [RA] Document --suppress-tags and --suppress-tags-from-file. + [RA] Document format of --tags-from-file. + [RA] Document -F (--ftp-master-rejects). + [RA] Add ocaml checker script. + [RA] Add ar-info collection script. + [RA] Document the override locations in the FILES section. Thanks, Jakub Wilk. (Closes: #558649) + [RA] Remove obsolete spelling checker script. + [RA] Mention /usr/share/lintian/data under FILES. + [RA] Clarify that errors are not necessarily policy violations. + [RA] Remove bug that Lintian doesn't handle packages with different binary and source versions correctly. I don't believe this is still an issue. * man/lintian-info.1: + [RA] Add -h (--help). + [RA] lintian -i no longer pipes output through lintian-info. Adjust the man page accordingly. . * private/refresh-ftp-master-tags: + [RA] Script to refresh data about automatic package rejects. . * reporting/html_reports: + [RA] Never use O as the code for the tag on the per-tag page even if all instances in the archive are overridden. (Closes: #562630) . * t/runtests: + [RA] Unwrap the Options field so that it can be continued. + [RA] Replace TESTSET in Options with the root of the test suite so that lintian options referring to files can be tested with files in the test suite directory. + [RA] Support a new Sort: no field in package test metadata to suppress sorting of lintian output, for testing output formatting. + [RA] Use Lintian::Command::spawn to run Lintian for package tests so that the lintian options may contain shell metacharacters. + [RA] Put all error output from lintian unsorted before the regular output, making it easier to diagnose errors. + [RA] Suppress checking the syntax of the lintian output if neither Test-For nor Test-Against are set and Sort: no is set. . * unpack/list-{bin,src,udeb}pkg: + [RA] Support multiple versions of a package in the archive and include only the latest version in the Lintian package list. * unpack/unpack-binpkg-l2: + [RA] Report errors from dpkg-deb or tar on stderr if either exit with non-zero status. * unpack/unpack-srcpkg-l2: + [RA] Report errors from dpkg-source -x on stderr if it exits with non-zero status.
