Description:
lintian - Debian package checker
Changes:
lintian (0.2.4) unstable; urgency=low
.
* Added `fields' check for control fields. (That's the first check
written by Richard--and it's all Perl!!! ;-)
[32 new tags]
.
* Added `binaries' check.
[6 new tags]
.
* Improved `shared-libraries' check:
- use objdump instead of ldd and ldconfig
- this should fix all problems where Lintian couldn't check
python/perl dynamic objects, etc.
- allow cross-checking of packages, e.g., to check non-i386 .debs
on a i386 system (note, that this requires a multi-arch objdump)
- recognize if the shared library uses its SONAME
New tag:
shared-library-uses-its-soname
.
* Improved `control-files' check:
- Don't check the `control' control file for correct
permissions, because dpkg doesn't care and this file isn't
installed on the systems anyways
.
* Improved `files' check:
- Games are allowed to be setgid games
- svgalib programs are allowed to be setuid root
- usually, files in /usr/doc/foo should not be executable
New tag:
executable-in-usr-doc
.
* Fix bug in `manpages' check: symlinks in /usr/bin, etc. also need
a manual page! (Thanks to Joey Hess for pointing this out!)
.
* Use `.' instead of `source' in lintian-{remove,setup} /bin/sh scripts
(fixes bug#18421)
.
* Define default values for configuration variables in
lintian-{remove,setup} scripts (fixes bug#18354)
.
* Fix bug in `copyright-file' check: Don't report
usr-doc-symlink-to-foreign-package if we don't know whether the
referenced package comes from the same source or not.
(Thanks to James A. Treacy for pointing this out!)
.
* Internal change:
- process source packages before binary packages so that a binary
package check can use info from the source packages (if these
are unpacked, too)
.
* Added more override entries--and removed a few obsolete entries
(the checks are smarter now! :)
.
* Added "Depends: binutils" for `objdump'
.
* Changed maintainer email address to lintian-maint@debian.org
