Urgency: low
Maintainer: Christian Schwarz <schwarz@debian.org>
Description:
lintian - Debian package checker
Changes:
lintian (0.4.0) unstable; urgency=low
.
* Changes which make it possible to check the whole archive with Lintian
each day without having to check all packages all the time:
- Reworked creation and handling of info/{binary,source}-packages files:
- the list files contain a version number now, which allows checking
for old file formats
- each entry has a timestamp now
- don't remove $LAB/info/ directory on --setup-lab
- just process changed packages when doing --setup-lab
- added command line option: `-p X' makes lintian only process all
packages which are listed in file X
- changed meaning of command line option `-U': specifies info to
collect _in addition to_ the usual info (necessary to extract
the changelog files on master--see below)
.
* Improved `binaries' check:
- objects and binaries in a *-dbg package may be unstripped
- libraries in lib/profile or lib/debug may not be stripped
(suggested by Fabrizio)
[1 new tag]
.
* Added new `changelog' check
(thanks to Juan Cespedes for the idea! fixes:bug#19695)
.
* Improved `control-files' check:
- improved RE that searches maintainer scripts for /tmp security bugs
.
* Improved `description' check:
- fixed RE to check for description-starts-with-package-name
(thanks to Roderick Schertler)
.
* Fixed `fields' check:
- internal: check for source pkg using "-l dsc" instead of "-e dsc"
.
* Fixed `files' check:
- disabled possible-name-space-pollution tag since policy is not
defined yet
.
* Improved `manpages' check:
- fixed silly typo in binary-without-manpage tag info
(thanks to Robert Edmonds for noticing that!)
- disabled tag binary-without-manpage for `versioned binaries'
(thanks to Dirk for the suggestion! fixes:bug#20186)
.
* Fixed `menu' check:
- report maintainer-script-does-not-check... tag only once per package
and maintainer script
- recognize `$(which update-menus)' as valid check for the existance
of update-menus; same for install-docs
(thanks to Fabrizio for pointing this out!)
- recognize `command -v update-menus' as valid check for the existance
of update-menus; same for install-docs
(thanks to Adam P. Harris for pointing this out! fixes:bug#20759)
- fixed tag infos
(thanks to Adam P. Harris for the input! fixes:bug#19810)
.
* Improved `scripts' check:
- added new interpreters:
nawk, pike, rexx, regina, burlap, wish8.0, bltwish
(fixes:bug#20223)
.
* Improved `shared-libs' check:
- added check if shared libraries contain non-pic code
(thanks to Gregory S. Stark for the idea and the patch!
fixes:bug#19249)
[1 new tag]
.
* Added `changelog' collector script
This makes it possible for Lintian to extract all changelog files
on master for use by Apt (fixes:bug#20546)
.
* Incremented LAB_FORMAT version to 3 because of
incompatible changes in the objdump-info collector script
.
* Internal: fixed bug in read_dpkg_control() utility function: empty
tags have not been handled correctly
.
* Internal: html-reporting tool: don't chop of text after hash (#)
.
* Added a lot new overrides and removed unused overrides
(fixes:bug#20017,bug#20082,bug#19562)
