Changes:
dpkg (1.16.9~bpo60+1) squeeze-backports; urgency=low
 .
  * Rebuild for squeeze-backports.
  * Several updates to architecture.mk and dpkg-architecture were required to
    keep multiarch support disabled.
 .
dpkg (1.16.9) unstable; urgency=low
 .
  [ Raphaël Hertzog ]
  * Fix dpkg-source regression in "3.0 (quilt)" source packages while
    unapplying patches that remove all files in a directory. Closes: #683547
  * Fix segfault in field format parsing on empty strings, affecting
    «dpkg-query -W -f ''» and «dpkg-deb -W --showformat=''». LP: #1035512
  * Fix dpkg's French usage string which was missing the final “s“ in
    --print-foreign-architectures. Closes: #685863
 .
  [ Guillem Jover ]
  * Use “statoverrides” instead of “statusoverrides” in dpkg-statoverride.
    Closes: #686995
  * Comment out dpkg(1) documentation about disabled --command-fd option.
    Closes: #685677
  * Cleanup dpkg-divert unit-test environment to avoid build failures.
    Closes: #687656
  * Fix update-alternatives test suite to behave correctly on non-Debian
    binary paths. Known to be affecting at least Gentoo and Mac OS X.
  * Do not leak subcall command arguments in update-alternatives.
  * Fix segfault on update-alternatives when passing --slave without any
    action at all. LP: #1037431
  * Fix memory leak in dpkg filesavespackage().
  * Do not print garbage (or worse) on dpkg shared conffile debug output.
  * Use a hash instead of a ref to a hash for keys() in Dpkg::BuildFlags
    get_feature_areas(). This causes compilation failures with older perl
    versions, which can be an issue with partial upgrades.
  * Fix filter subpattern debug output format string to print an actual
    value instead of just blanks.
  * Ignore trailing filter subpattern slashes on reinclusion comparison.
    This makes sure to reinclude directories previously excluded so that
    contained files marked for inclusion do not fail to unpack due to a
    missing directory. Closes: #688416
  * Do not consider obsolete conffiles as actively owned by the package.
    This ensures conffile entries are not misshandled nor mixed up when
    configuring packages owning the non-obsolete conffiles. Closes: #689836
    Based on a patch by Andreas Beckmann <debian@abeckmann.de>.
  * Properly mark in the database obsolete conffiles on package replaces.
  * Sync the Conffiles field values for all package instances. Because
    only the first package instance being configured will have a *.dpkg-new
    conffile available to be processed, the subsequent ones need to use the
    hash from the previously processed entries.
  * Fix logic for previously configured conffiles, so that the shared
    conffile checks actually work on reinstallation. Closes: #684776
  * Avoid info database corruption and bogus accesses on unknown format
    values, by always reading the format file and validating it.
  * Clarify that the most probable reason for multiarch database
    inconcistencies is due to upgrades from unofficial dpkg versions.
  * Only satisfy a dependency on a “Multi-Arch: foreign” if arch-unqualified.
  * Take architecture into account in virtual packages on remove and
    configure dpkg actions. Closes: #683411
  * Update update-alternatives --query format and examples in man page to
    match the implementation.
  * Add two missing 3rd person ‘s’ in dpkg-gensymbols(1). Closes: #689863
    Thanks to Paul Menzel <pm.debian@googlemail.com>.
  * Fix regression on old-style binNMUs for packages that specify an
    explicit binary version to dpkg-gencontrol, by always fixing up the
    source version. Closes: #690823

dpkg (1.16.5) unstable; urgency=low

  [ Raphaël Hertzog ]
  * dpkg-source will now clean up after a failed application of a quilt
    patch. Closes: #652970
    And it will display a message explaining the most likely cause of
    failure (patch applying with fuzz).
  * When dpkg-source regenerates the automatic patch (with formats "2.0"
    or "3.0 (quilt)") it will keep the current patch header to avoid
    losing changes made by the maintainer.
  * Modify dpkg-source --commit to auto-whitelist modified binary files.
    That way the same command can be used whatever kind of upstream files
    has been modified.
  * dpkg-source now supports a new option --no-unapply-patches to force
    patches to be kept applied after build (used by formats "2.0" and "3.0
    (quilt)"). Closes: #643043
 .
  [ Guillem Jover ]
  * Add a dpkg-buildflags --status action to describe the flag settings.
    Thanks to Bernhard R. Link <brlink@debian.org>. Closes: #664058
  * Add support for “binary-only” key-value option in changelogs, to allow
    marking changelog entries as part of a binary only upload, having a
    different version from the source package. Closes: #440094, #672723
  * Minimize source architecture list on «dpkg-source -b» by removing
    architectures already covered by architecture wildcards. Closes: #675333
  * Do not assume $ENV{'HOME'} is defined in Dpkg::Source::Package.
    Thanks to Niels Thykier <niels@thykier.net>. Closes: #677631
  * Document in more detail in deb(5) the supported ar archive format.
  * Document in deb-src-control(5) the “Private-” field prefix.
  * Add new start-stop-daemon --no-close option to disable closing file
    descriptors on --background. Closes: #627333, #646425
  * Switch source compression to xz.
  * Detect ar header fields truncation due to too long member names or too
    large member sizes. Closes: #678933
  * Add new dpkg-query --control-list and --control-show commands, which
    replace the now deprecated --control-path.
  * Print master and slave alternarive link names in update-alternatives
    --query and always print alternative link in --config. Closes: #679010
  * Cleanup and clarify buffer I/O error reporting. Closes: #621763
  * Avoid full stop and double newline at the end of errors and warnings.
    Thanks to Jonathan Nieder <jnieder@gmail.com>. Closes: #624000

dpkg (1.16.4.3) unstable; urgency=low
 .
  * On «update-alternatives --install» only warn for now on out of range
    priorities and clamp the values, as there seems to be packages using
    priorities > INT_MAX, which although bogus as they were previously
    overflowing the int used to store them, that would cause installation
    failures when upgrading from squeeze. This will be reverted to an
    error after wheezy. Closes: #676874

  [ Guillem Jover ]
  * Deprecate compressing .deb files with lzma, by making dpkg-deb issue a
    warning, as the format has several deficiencies that have been addressed
    by upstream in xz. Although unpacking will be kept being supported to
    handle existing lzma compressed .deb files.
  * Add alternative changelog formats documentation from the policy manual
    to dpkg-parsechangelog(1). Closes: #584141
  * Add MiNT support to ostable and triplettable.
    Requested by Thorsten Glaser <tg@mirbsd.de>.
  * Add new frontend.txt file to dpkg-dev documenting some public interfaces
    for dpkg frontends. Closes: #670897
  * Clarify in dpkg(1) when --force-conf* options cause action.
    Suggested by Sven Joachim <svenjoac@gmx.de>. Closes: #391818
  * Add “gcc | c-compiler” to libdpkg-perl Suggests, due to Dpkg::Arch usage.
    Closes: #671198
  * Do not mask PIE from dpkg-buildflags on m68k, it appears to work now.
    Requested by Thorsten Glaser <tg@mirbsd.de>.
  * Remove deprecated support for PGP style signing command interface from
    dpkg-buildpackage.
  * Remove obsolete --udeb dpkg-scanpackages option.
  * Add arm64 support to cputable. Closes: #672408
    Thanks Wookey <wookey@wookware.org>.
  * Check parsed integers for invalid or no digit errors in start-stop-daemon
    and update-alternatives.
  * Check all parsed integers for out of range errors; i.e. that no negative
    values are allowed if not appropriate, and that no overflows occur.
    Closes: #580038
  * Switch start-stop-daemon(8) man page examples from /var/run to /run.
  * Do not obscure Dpkg::Source::Package ‘require’ errors with custom
    error message. Thanks to Thomas Adam <thomas.adam@smoothwall.net> and
    Jonathan Nieder <jrnieder@gmail.com>.
  * Add new Dpkg::Substvars::set_as_used() member function.
  * Rename Dpkg::Substvars no_warn() member function to mark_as_used(), keep
    the old name aliased to the new one producing a deprecation warning.
  * Add support for Build-Depends-Arch and Build-Conflicts-Arch fields, and
    a new -A option to dpkg-checkbuilddeps. Closes: #629480
    Thanks to Roger Leigh <rleigh@debian.org>.
  * Add support for “none” as a valid dpkg-deb compression strategy value.
    Closes: #674711
  * Clarify in dpkg(1) that the «dpkg -l» example only lists installed
    packages, and that to list available packages «dpkg-query --load-avail»
    has to be used instead. Closes: #673305
  * Clarify also in the dpkg(1) man page (already present in the dpkg.cfg(5)
    man page) the valid filenames for /etc/dpkg/dpkg.cfg.d/ fragment files.
    Closes: #674674
  * Fix start-stop-daemon to not follow symlinks when creating pidfiles.
    Thanks to Carsten Hey <carsten@debian.org>. Closes: #675918
  * Refactor the file locking logic into a new Dpkg::File module, and move
    the libfile-fcntllock-perl dependency from dpkg-dev to libdpkg-perl.
  * Demote the libfile-fcntllock-perl Depends to a Recommends by falling back
    to use flock based locking, because it being an XS module makes building
    a new perl package bumping the perl ABI impossible, as both packages
    become uninstallable. Thanks to Dominic Hargreaves <dom@earth.li>.
    Closes: #675947
  * Put an & before field_capitalize() calls in Dpkg::Control::Fields to
    fix a usage before declaration warning with perl 5.16. Closes: #676262
  * Do not warn in dpkg-divert on missing files list file for packages never
    installed before. Closes: #673518
  * Add support for liblzma to handle .xz and .lzma compressed files, and
    switch to it instead of using xz-utils. This removes the xz-utils
    Pre-Depends from dpkg. Thanks to Jonathan Nieder <jrnieder@gmail.com>.
  * Always activate all path components for file triggers, this fixes file
    trigger handling for conffiles and dpkg-trigger invocations.
    Closes: #675613, #676061, #676062, #676107, #676118, #676122
  * Do not reset Multi-Arch field in the update log when removing the package.

  * Do not look for newline beyond the read buffer on dpkg-deb extract.
  * Check update-alternative name and link arguments for all commands.
    Closes: #665050
  * Check all dpkg-divert filename arguments to be absolute and to not
    contain newlines. Closes: #21722
  * Print errors while reading the file list files on a new line instead
    of just after the progress percentage. Closes: #552517
  * Document in dpkg-source(1) that patches for source format “3.0 (quilt)”
    are expected to apply without any fuzz. Closes: #666752
    Based on a patch by Luca Capello <luca@pca.it>.
  * Remove redundant -Wformat-security from default dpkg-buildflags, which
    is already implied by -Werror=format-security. Closes: #664964
    Suggested by Peter Eisentraut <petere@debian.org>.
  * Document in dpkg-query(1) that commands producing multiple paragraphs
    will preserve the order of the packages specified on the argument list.
  * Change start-stop-daemon --exec on GNU/Hurd, FreeBSD, NetBSD, OpenBSD
    and Solaris to check for executables matching device and inode numbers
    instead of filenames.
  * Change start-stop-daemon --name on GNU/Hurd to check the process' argv[1]
    in addition to argv[0], to handle both binaries and interpreted scripts.
    Reported by Mats Erik Andersson <mats.andersson@gisladisker.se>.
  * Handle deb format versions as major.minor integers instead of strings or
    floats, the latter being susceptible to parsing errors depending on the
    current locale (although this was only affecting the old deb format).
  * Ignore the minor format version number for deb-split format, unifying
    the behaviour with the deb format.
  * Add support for an abitable containing arch attribute overrides.
  * Add x32 support to abitable, ostable and triplettable. Closes: #667037
  * Fix start-stop-daemon to work with relative --exec arguments and --chdir.
    Closes: #669047
  * Ignore request to rename a file owned by the diverting package on
    «dpkg-divert --add --rename». Closes: #588077
  * Clarify dpkg-gensymbols(1) by way of examples that architecture wildcards
    are supported in symbols files. Closes: #670048
  * Fix memory leak due to Dpkg::Control objects not being garbage-collected.
    Thanks to Ben Harris <bjh21@cam.ac.uk>. Closes: #669012
  * Compute the md5sum hash on unpack for empty files too, so that these
    can be checked correctly for matching content when installing multiple
    package instances.
  * Generate md5sums files automatically at unpack time if missing from the
    binary package. Closes: #155676, #155799

  * Move <config.h> and <compat.h> to the top of trigdeferred.l to properly
    use the configured features and compat code.
  * Honour --disable-nls when the system lacks obstack support, by updating
    the obstack compat module from gnulib.
  * Link the libdpkg unit tests with libcompat and libintl, so that systems
    needing them will compile correctly.
  * Check for the presence of the strnlen declaration and correctly provide
    the compat one in case the systems lacks it.
  * Do not assume existence of paths on the build system in the test suite.
  * Do not fail to link dselect on MacOS X when using --disable-nls.
  * Remove versioned coreutils Pre-Depends from dpkg due to the ancient
    md5sum transition. Reported by Bill Allombert <ballombe@debian.org>.
    Closes: #643746
  * Change dpkg-architecture to only compute the requested variables. This:
    - Fixes the bootstrapping problem, as the dpkg build system only needs
      the host architecture, for which dpkg itself is not required.
    - Reduces the amount of work performed, including loading and parsing
      unnecessary table files or calling either of gcc or dpkg programs.
  * Improve error message in dpkg-gencontrol and dpkg-gensymbols when
    debian/control does not have any package stanza. Closes: #642473
    Based on a patch by Kyle Willmon <kylewillmon@gmail.com>.

    using the ‘--warning=no-timestamp’ option. Closes: #642802
  * Do not segfault on GNU/Linux when dpkg cannot retrieve the block size
    for the filesystem containing the info database. LP: #872734
  * Fix two memory leaks per tar entry in the tar extractor used on unpack.
  * Mark dpkg and dselect as Multi-Arch foreign.

    Thanks to Matt Kraai <kraai@ftbfs.org>.
  * Return correct status on start-stop-daemon --status when using --pidfile.
  * Treat dpkg-deb compression level independently for each backend. This
    has the effect of changing the current behaviour for level 0 on all
    compressors except gzip.
  * Add new dpkg-deb -S option to specify the compression strategy. The only
    currently supported value is “extreme” for xz. Closes: #647915
  * Stop using brace expansion to install man pages by using dh_installman
    instead of dh_install, the former does not abort on empty glob expansion.
  * Do not use absolute paths for programs in perl and shell code.

    the .changes file using ‘all’ as architecture. Closes: #661638
  * Handle unknown architectures gracefully in dpkg-buildflags.
    Closes: #663004
  * Add missing --status-logger to dpkg --help output.
  * Do not print bogus errno string for invalid package names in dpkg
    --ignore-depends option.
  * Change dpkg-query to not load the available file by default for --list
    and --show, add a new --load-avail option to expose the old behaviour.
  * Only allow setting selections via «dpkg --set-selections» for known
    packages (i.e. those present in either the status or available files).
  * Always ignore older versions when parsing the available file, not only
    for --update-avail and --merge-avail.
  * Mark not-installed non-arch-qualified selections for removal.
  * Add new «dpkg --assert-multi-arch» command to allow checking for
    multi-arch support availability.
  * Bump Standards-Version to 3.9.3 (no changes needed).
  * Add architecture consistency checks to «dpkg --audit».
  * Add new dpkg --add-architecture and --remove-architecture commands to
    track supported architectures.

    removing/renaming a conffile with a "~" suffix as "priorversion"
