.
* checks/*:
+ [NT] Migrated to use new methods in the Lintian::Collect
interfaces rather than accessing the Lab directly.
+ [NT] Removed "fields" from Needs-Info.
* checks/{debconf,conffiles}.desc:
+ [NT] Added missing bin-pkg-control Needs-Info.
* checks/{cruft,fields}{,.desc}:
+ [NT] Relocated doc pkg not arch all tag; it was never
triggered since cruft was a source check and the tag
could only be triggered for binary packages.
* checks/binaries:
+ [NT] Added lib/${MULTIARCH_DIR} to the list of paths to
check for public shared libraries. Thanks to Sven Joachim
for the report and the patch. (Closes: #630698)
+ [NT] Recognise .gox files as object files that cannot be
stripped. Thanks to Matthias Klose for the report.
(Closes: #624521)
+ [NT] Do not assume that the architecture field is present.
+ [NT] Emit "arch-dependent-file-in-usr-share" and
"binary-in-etc" also for static compiled files. Thanks to
Jakub Wilk for the report and the patch. (Closes: #635354)
+ [NT] Fixed false-negative for rpath, if the rpath included
the multi-arch dir. Thanks to Jakub Wilk for the report and
the patch. (Closes: #637259)
* checks/changelog-file:
+ [NT] Removed exception for symlinked changelogs if the
package had an Ubuntu version. This exception is now
handled by the profile. Thanks to Benjamin Drung for the
heads up.
* checks/circular-deps.desc:
+ [NT] Fixed typo; thanks to Nicolás Alvarez for the report
and patch. (Closes: #630925)
* checks/control-files:
+ [NT] Refactored static tables into data-files.
* checks/copyright-file:
+ [NT] Stricten one of the regexes for catching left over
helper templates. This should prevent false-positives for
some license texts. Thanks to Charles Plessy for the
report. (Closes: #631674)
+ [NT] Use group data to determine if a package is foreign
or not for symlinked /usr/share/doc/<pkg> dirs. This
avoids the need for symlinks between packages in the
lab.
* checks/deb-format{,.desc}:
+ [NT] Allow data.tar.xz as the third member. Thanks to
Ansgar Burchardt for the report and patch.
(Closes: #632556)
+ [NT] Added test for udebs having non-gzip data members,
since the debian-installer does not support them. Thanks
to Luk Claes. (Closes: #634874)
* checks/debhelper:
+ [NT] Do not trigger deprecation warning for dh_python if it
is followed by a "$". This prevents false-positives when
a Makefile variable is used to choose between dh_python2
and dh_python3. Thanks to Leonid Borisenko for the report.
(Closes: #631662)
+ [NT] Do not trigger deprecation warning for dh_python-ply,
which Lintian incorrectly identified as dh_python. Thanks
to Daniele Tricoli for the report. (Closes: #632693)
+ [NT] Fix a broken regex that caused Lintian skip brace
expansion checks for some debhelper files. Thanks to
Jakub Wilk for the report and the patch. (Closes: #632883)
+ [NT] Do not consider "debian/debhelper" a temporary debhelper
file. Some packages uses this a directory to store their
debhelper files.
* checks/debian-source-dir{,.desc}:
+ [NT] Added missing word in the tag description for
git-patches-not-exported.
+ [NT] Fixed information disclosure issue, where Lintian could
be tricked into disclosing the present of files on the host
system via specially crafted source packages.
* checks/duplicate-files:
+ [NT] Exclude __init__.py files from the check as they are
required even if they are empty. Thanks to Daniele Tricoli
for the report. (Closes: #632789)
+ [NT] Report duplicate changelogs as a separate tag.
* checks/fields:
+ [NT] Refactored to use Lintian::Data and use new data files
from data/fields.
+ [NT] Added python3-dev and rmeoved python2.{4,5} from
$PYTHON_DEV. Thanks to Jakub Wilk for the report and the
patch. (Closes: #633044)
+ [NT] Fixed a bug where the libdb1-compat tag only triggered
if libdb1-compat was listed in Pre-Depends.
+ [NT] Updated list of python "dev" packages. Thanks to
Jakub Wilk for the patch.
* checks/filename-length{,.desc}:
+ [NT] New file that checks the length of the package file
names. (Closes: #631656)
* checks/files:
+ [NT] Check for embedded copies of the underscore javascript
library. Thanks to Jakub Wilk for report and the patch.
(Closes: #631513)
+ [NT] Removed a leading slash from the filename part of the
extra for python-debug-in-wrong-location. Thanks to
Jakub Wilk for the report and the patch. (Closes: #631530)
+ [NT] Accepted patch from Marcelo Jorge Vieira to catch
four additional embedded javascript libraries.
(Closes: #635447)
+ [NT] Stricten the regex for finding .xvpics dirs.
+ [NT] Shipping a lintian override is no longer enough to
make lintian consider the package for "non-empty".
* checks/init.d{,.desc}:
+ [NT] Provide a separate tag for upstart-jobs not registered
via update-rc.d in postinst. This allows vendors (such as
Ubuntu) to disable this tag for upstart-jobs only using the
new vendor profiles. While this would break overrides, all
existing overrides appears to be for normal scripts rather
than upstart-jobs. (Closes: #631872)
* checks/java{,.desc}:
+ [NT] Jar files containing clojure files are no longer
considered to be codeless.
+ [NT] Exclude jar files in /usr/lib/xul{-ext,runner} from the
"jar-not-in-usr-share" check. (Closes: #635495)
+ [NT] Fixed a typo in a tag description.
* checks/menu-format.desc:
+ [NT] Mentioned how to git rid of the CR characters in the
desktop file. Thanks to Jakub Wilk.
* checks/nmu:
+ [NT] "LowThresholdNMU" will now work as an alternative to
"NMU" in changelogs for suppressing
changelog-should-mention-nmu. Thanks to Jordi Mallach for
the report. (Closes: #620418)
* checks/po-debconf:
+ [NT] Allow po-files with an "@modifier", which works with
debconf (>= 1.5.34). (Closes: #617905)
* checks/rules:
+ [NT] Check included files in d/rules against a limited
number of common makefile snippets, which are known not
to implement all the required targets. This prevents
false negatives of missing targets. Thanks to
Jakub Wilk for the suggestion and the initial makefile
list. (Closes: #631711)
+ [NT] Warn about including the CDBS simple-patchsys and dpatch
as they are both deprecated by source format 3.0 (quilt).
Thanks to Nelson A. de Oliveira for reporting and Luk Claes
for providing an initial patch. (Closes: #624201)
+ [NT] Added check for using DEB_*FLAGS_{SET,APPEND} in d/rules.
Thanks to Raphaël Hertzog for the report. (Closes: #631786)
* checks/scripts{,.desc}:
+ [NT] Removed perl-suid related tags as the package is no
longer available and we have no known packages triggering
the tags at the moment. (Closes: #631432)
+ [NT] Added perl6/rakudo as a known interpreter. Thanks to
Alessandro Ghedini for the report and patch. (Closes: #636354)
* checks/shared-libs{,.desc}:
+ [NT] Fixed broken sentence. Thanks to Norbert Preining for
reporting the issue.
+ [NT] Applied patch from Peter Pentchev to correct the logic for
testing for shlib-calls-exit. (Closes: #633976)
+ [NT] Mention that some of the tags may be triggered due to the
debhelper bug #204975. Thanks to Jakub Wilk for the report.
(Closes: #633853)
* checks/symlinks:
+ [NT] Symlink checking extended to relative paths as well.
(Closes: #217023)
.
* collection/*:
+ [NT] Removed all Needs-Info on "fields" and all checks that
used the "fields" dir (or files therein) to determine if the
scripts had been called in the wrong dir.
* collection/diffstat:
+ [NT] No longer unconditionally creates a diffstat file,
since the Lintian::Collect interface will fall back to
using /dev/null in its absence.
* collection/fields:
+ [NT] Removed creation of cross package symlinks. They have
been replaced by the group information that checks are
passed.
+ [NT] Deprecated it in favour of a smarter Lintian::Collect.
It will be removed in a later release; for now it will just
remove the "fields" directory in the lab.
* collection/file-info:
+ [NT] Double check the output of file(1) when it says a ".gz"
file is not gzip compressed. This should reduce the number
of false-positives gz-file-not-gzip tags.
(Closes: #620289)
+ [NT] Open files before using chdir. In the future unpacked
may be a symlink.
* collection/index{,.desc}:
+ [NT] Updated to handle source packages and with support for
multi tarball source packages.
.
* data/control-files/{,u}deb-permissions:
+ [NT] Added files.
* data/fields/*:
+ [NT] Added new files based on data variables from checks/fields.
* data/fields/obsolete-packages:
+ [NT] Added ligdigest-sha1-perl on request of the Perl Team.
Thanks to Salvatore Bonaccorso for the report and patch.
(Closes: #635441)
* data/fields/perl-provides:
+ [NT] Refreshed against perl 5.12.4.
* data/files/standard-files:
+ [NT] Added file.
* data/rules/{deprecated,known}-makefiles:
+ [NT] Added file.
* data/spelling/corrections:
+ [RA] Remove discontiguous correction. The OED lists this as valid.
Thanks, Charles Plessy. (Closes: #632159)
+ [NT] Added another correction for "specification". Thanks to
Jakub Wilk for the hint. (Closes: #634222)
+ [NT] Added another correction for "development" and "misspelt".
Thanks to Pino Toscano and Jakub Wilk for the suggestion.
.
* debian/control:
+ [NT] Bumped debhelper version to 8.1.0 due to the build-arch and
build-indep targets. Thanks to Mark Hymers for the heads up and
a patch. (Closes: #632550)
+ [NT] Added Build-Depends on cdbs, it is needed for some of the
tests.
+ [NT] Pruned the Uploaders list a bit. We would like to thank
Jeroen van Wolffelaar, Frank Lichtenheld and Marc 'HE'
Brockschmidt for their work on Lintian in the past.
* debian/lintian.install:
+ [NT] Added the profiles directory.
* debian/rules:
+ [NT] Added target to update the profiles.
.
* doc/lintian.xml:
+ [NT] Added information about the new Vendor profiles.
+ [NT] Improved various parts of the User Manual. Especially
mention that Lintian can be run on changes files and this
processes all packages related to the changes file.
* doc/lintianrc.example:
+ [NT] Added more sample options.
.
* frontend/{lintian,lintian-info}:
+ [NT] Added profile support (new option --profile), please
refer to the Lintian User Manual for more information.
* frontend/lintian:
+ [NT] Ensure that all dependency collections of a check are
loaded. Previously Lintian would only load direct
dependencies of a collection and assume that was enough.
+ [NT] Allow "verbose" to appear in the lintianrc file.
+ [NT] Added new "--packages-from-file" option. Lintian will
read packages from the file (one package per line) and process
these. Unlike "--packages-file" it allows its argument to be
"-" for stdin and the format is simpler.
+ [NT] Deprecated "--packages-file" in favour of the new
"--packages-from-file" option.
+ [NT] Allow "y" as short form of "yes" in the configuration file.
Furthermore, ignore case when doing the check for boolean
values.
.
* lib/Lab.pm:
+ [NT] Removed $dist argument to lab creation, since we rely on
LINTIAN_DIST being exported anyway.
+ [NT] Allow temporary labs to contain the same package twice if
the version or/and architecture differs. (Closes: #632115)
* lib/Lab/Package.pm:
+ [NT] Symlink in all components of the source package when
creating the source entry in the lab. Also removed legacy
code for using the old unpack scripts.
* lib/Lintian/Collect/{Binary,Source}.pm:
+ [NT] Refactored code from these files into the module
Lintian::Collect::Package.
* lib/Lintian/Collect/Package.pm:
+ [NT] New file. This serves as a base for Lintian::Collect
modules that can be unpacked.
* lib/Lintian/Command.pm:
+ [NT] Added support for appending output to files without
truncating them first via the new out_append and
err_append options.
* lib/Lintian/Data.pm:
+ [NT] Let new take an optional fourth argument, a code sub,
that can be used to pre-process the value.
* lib/Lintian/{Internal/FrontendUtil,Profile}.pm:
+ [NT] New files.
* lib/Lintian/ProcessablePool.pm:
+ [NT] Made the pool consider two packages with the same name
as duplicates even if their version or architecture differs,
when the underlying Lab does not support this run. This
causes lintian to drop one of the packages rather than ending
up with an internal error.
* lib/Lintian/{Tag/Info,Tags}.pm:
+ [NT] Updated for profile support.
* lib/Read_pkglists.pm:
+ [NT] Merged the binary and udeb format since they were
essentially the same. Old udeb files can still be parsed
as binary ones.
.
* man/lintian.pod.in:
+ [NT] Documented the new --profile option. Note that the
options --suppress-tags{,-from-file} now supresses tags
in the active profile.
+ [NT] Removed all refereces to "unpack-level". All unpack
levels have been replaced by collections.
+ [NT] Clarified that some command-line arguments are only
useful when using a static lintian lab.
+ [NT] Described the configuration file format. Thanks to
Sven Joachim for the report. (Closes: #636681)
* man/lintian-info.pod:
+ [NT] Documented the new --profile option.
.
* profiles/*:
+ [NT] Added default profiles for Debian and Ubuntu. Note
that these profiles will silently ignore overrides for
"fatal" (non-overridable) tags. (Closes: #536364)
.
* reporting/harness:
+ [NT] Use --packages-from-file instead of --packages-file.
* reporting/{html_reports,templates/index.tmpl}:
+ [NT] Always emit a page for tags, even if they are not emitted.
It will also include a link to the entire list of known tags.
(Closes: #631763)
* reporting/templates/{tag-not-seen,tags-all}.tmpl:
+ [NT] New files.
.
* unpack/list-binpkg:
+ [NT] Added a -u option to make it fetch udebs insteaad of
regular binaries. This and the udeb/bin format merge makes
list-udebpkg obsolete.
* unpack/list-udebpkg:
+ [NT] Removed in favour of list-binpkg.
* unpack/unpack-srcpkg-l1:
+ [NT] Removed in favour of the collection system.
