(Closes: #656885) * checks/fields{,.desc}: + [JW] Properly handle uploader names with commas. (Closes: #485705) + [NT] Removed uploader-address-missing tag. + [NT] Added section-mapping for (some) zope packages.

Thanks to Josh Triplett for the suggestion, investigative work and the proposed patch to make this possible. (Closes: #636086) + [JW] Add Build-Dependency on python-numpy and python-all-dev for the test suite. + [NT] Bumped Lintian's Standards-Version to 3.9.3. No changes required. * debian/{postinst,prerm}: + [JW,NT] Remove the internal Lintian locale if a C.UTF-8 locale is found in /usr/lib/locale. * debian/source/lintian-overrides: + [NT] Added override for python-dev tag. We need python-all-dev for the test suite. * debian/triggers: + [JW] Added trigger for libc-bin C.UTF-8 locale. This ensures the internal Lintian locale can removed if libc-bin is upgraded after Lintian. . * doc/lintian.xml: + [NT] Corrected the runtime estimate for an archive-wide run. With 35 000+ packages, it can no longer be done in "a few hours". + [NT] Documented architecture specific overrides. (Closes: #651816) * doc/lintianrc.example: + [NT] Removed deprecated variables and added sample TMPDIR usage. . * frontend/lintian: + [NT] Allow -U to be given more than once. + [JW,NT] If using a temporary lab, print its location when using --verbose option. (Closes: #650433) + [NT] Fixed an issue where auto-clean would not see the real status of some collections. + [NT] Keep auto-cleaned collections until all processables in the group has been checked. + [NT] Attempt guess the version number when running in an git checkout or unpacked source dir. Based on patch from Evan Broder. (Closes: #650701) + [NT] Added support for the virtual "GROUP" type in Lab Queries. This will make Lintian select all packages related to a given source (and version). + [NT] Removed check loading code. This has been moved into Lintian::Profile. + [NT] Always load a profile. + [NT] Allow TMPDIR in the configuration file. + [NT] Treat "pedantic" as a normal severity. In previous release, pedantic tags were not affected by --display-level. A side-effect of this is that "pedantic" can no longer be used with "display-level" in the configuration file. + [NT] Produce a better error message when asked to process an URL or a path that is definitely not a valid lab query. Thanks to Nicholas Bamber for the report. (Closes: #651332) * frontend/lintian-info: + [NT] Support new lintian.log format. + [NT] Support new override file format with -a. + [NT] Fixed the --profile argument, which now accepts the mandatory parameter it is supposed to. . * lib/Checker.pm: + [NT] Removed, merged into frontend/lintian. * lib/Lintian/Architecture.pm: + [NT] New file. * lib/Lintian/Check.pm: + [NT] Do not check for missing uploader address as it cannot be done reliably anymore. + [NT] Applied patch from intrigeri to remove the "not-full-name" tags. + [NT] Only emit a spelling tag once for each spelling error in each field/file/text. * lib/Lintian/CheckScript.pm: + [NT] New file. * lib/Lintian/Collect/{Binary,Source}.pm: + [NT] Assume packages to be non-native when it cannot be accurately determined due to missing version field. * lib/Lintian/Collect/Binary.pm: + [NT] Fixed an error in parsing symbol names when using readelf as replacement for objdump. * lib/Lintian/Collect/Group.pm: + [NT] Made direct_dependencies properly handle udebs. This fixes an error that would cause lintian to skip some checks for udebs. * lib/Lintian/Collect/Package.pm: + [NT] Map an owner/group of "0/0" to "root/root". This avoids a number of false-positive ownership tags if only numerical ownership is available in the tarball. Thanks to Thorsten Glaser for the report. (Closes: #638278) * lib/Lintian/Collect/Source.pm: + [NT] Removed assumption that source packages always have a format field. * lib/Lintian/Lab.pm: + [NT] Added "is_temp" method to identify temp labs from static labs. + [NT] Corrected issue where the lab would record binaries as being from "main", even if their "section" field implied otherwise. * lib/Lintian/Lab/Entry.pm: + [NT] Properly strip whitespace when loading collection status. * lib/Lintian/Processable/Package.pm: + [NT] Use part of the file name as package name if the mandatory "Package" or "Source" fields are missing rather than choking. * lib/Lintian/Profile.pm: + [NT] Catch recursively defined profiles when the Profile field contains a (slightly) different name than the Extends field of its parent.

This has moved to Lintian::Profile. * lib/Lintian/Tags.pm: + [NT] Support architecture wildcards in overrides. + [NT] Emit "malformed-override" for architecture specific tags for unknown architectures and for "arch:all" packages. + [NT] Use a Profile to determine if a tag is suppressed or not. + [NT] Handle "pedantic" like the other severities. + [NT] Count experimental tags as a separate group of tags. This fixes an issue where lintian would exit 1 if the only error tags emitted were experimental. (Closes: #658971) * lib/Util.pm: + [NT] Create clean_env function to handle cleaning of the environment for children processes and finding a suitable UTF-8 locale (when needed). + [NT] Report line number instead of "0-indexed" paragraph number in syntax errors. Thanks to Jari Aalto for the suggestion. (Closes: #659909) . * man/lintian.pod.in: + [NT] Removed the notes that some options disable loading of a profile. Lintian now always loads a profile when doing checks. . * private/refresh-archs: + [NT] Rewritten. * private/refresh-hwcap: + [JW] New file. . * profiles/debian/ftp-master-auto-reject.profile: + [NT] Refreshed. . * reporting/harness: + [NT] Removed useless "TODO" message from the log output. + [NT] Added -h/--help option to print usage information. + [NT] Added --dry-run option. + [NT] A source package is now only processed if one (or more) of its binaries are processed as well. + [NT] Also symlink $LINTIAN_BIN_DIR/gpgv to /bin/true when skipping signature checks.
