Package: lintian
Version: 2.1.5
Severity: wishlist
Hello,
(hoping it won't make the bug count reach 100 again ;))
given recent #511926 and #512190 bugs, I think it'd be nice to catch
hardcoded libc6 in Depends: lines. I can't think of a single situation
where that would be needed.
Thanks in advance!
Not sure I'll provide a patch, I've got NMs to process and RC bugs to
hunt! Oh, while I'm at it, would you like me to ask one of them to write
it? :)
Mraw,
KiBi.

+ Added
- direct-changes-in-diff-but-no-patch-system (pedantic)

- no-upstream-changelog (pedantic)
- package-depends-on-hardcoded-libc
- weak-dependency-on-misc-depends
.
* checks/*.desc:
+ [RA] Replace `' "balanced" quotes with straight double-quotes. The
old style looks strange with modern fonts. Based on work by Raphael
Geissert.
* checks/binaries:
+ [FL] Fix check for directories in the package in RPATH check.
* checks/changelog-file{,.desc}:
+ [RA] Use Lintian::Collect to read the changelog.
+ [RA] Enable no-upstream-changelog as a pedantic check, since it's
often incorrect for multiple binary packages generated from the same
source. Patch from Raphael Geissert. (Closes: #470912)
* checks/control-file{,.desc}:
+ [ADB] Fix a typo ("arne't"). Thanks, Raphael Geissert.
+ [RA] Check for hard-coded package dependencies on libc. Patch from
Evgeni Golov. (Closes: #512196)
+ [RA] Check package-depends-on-itself for Suggests as well.
* checks/debhelper{,.desc}:
+ [ADB] Remove no longer required "Type" fields from a couple of
entries. Thanks, Raphael Geissert.
+ [ADB] Fix a couple of typoes. Thanks, Raphael Geissert.

* checks/nmu{,.desc}:
+ [RA] Use Lintian::Collect to read the changelog.
+ [RA] Only treat the mention of NMU as a maintainer acknowldegement
if the "ack" string appears before the mention of NMU. Avoids
changelog-should-mention-nmu false positives for "NMU with ACK from
maintainer." Thanks, Evgeni Golov. (Closes: #512738)
* checks/patch-systems{,.desc}:
+ [RA] Add pedantic check for changes to the upstream source in the
diff without using a patch system. Thanks, Raphael Geissert.

+ [ADB] Add source-control-file to the list of information needed by
the script. Thanks, Raphael Geissert. (Closes: #512563)
+ [RA] Use Lintian::Data to get the standards versions and release
dates. Dates are now in seconds since epoch, so remove the date
conversion code.

+ [RA] Mention when the binary:Version and source:Version substvars
were introduced. Thanks, Steffen Moeller.
.
* collection/*.desc:
+ [RA] Replace `' "balanced" quotes with straight double-quotes. The

from that module. Thanks, Raphael Geissert. (Closes: #512560)
* lib/Text_utils.pm:
+ [ADB] Add a missing "use Util" as the module uses the fail() function
from that module. Thanks, Raphael Geissert.
