Description:
lintian - Debian package checker
Closes: 518966 519300
Changes:
lintian (2.2.8) unstable; urgency=low
.
The "Policy 3.8.1" release.
.
* Summary of tag changes:
+ Added
- dir-or-file-in-var-lock
- dir-or-file-in-var-run
.
* checks/changelog-file.desc:
+ [RA] Using UTF-8 is now a Policy must and hence serious.
* checks/control-file.desc:
+ [RA] Using UTF-8 is now a Policy must and hence serious.
* checks/files{,.desc}:
+ [CW] Emit dir-or-file-in-var-lock or dir-or-file-in-var-run, as
appropriate, for packages shipping directories or files in /var/lock
or /var/run. See policy bug #514326.
* checks/menus{,.desc}:
+ [RA] Revert the change to not require update-menus in postinst.
This is still needed due to #518919. Don't require update-menus in
postrm for regular menu files, only for menu-methods, but also don't
warn if it's present. (Closes: #519300)
* checks/scripts:
+ [RA] Policy allows scripts to assume that /bin/sh supports local
with simple variable assignments.
+ [ADB] Check all added and removed diversions at once rather than
as each maintainer script is processed. This avoids differing
results and false positives if the postrm is processed before other
maintainer scripts. (Closes: #518966)
.
* data/debhelper/*:
+ [RA] Refresh against unstable.
* data/fields/virtual-packages:
+ [RA] Refresh against unstable.
* data/files/fonts:
+ [RA] Refresh against unstable.
* data/output/manual-references:
+ [RA] Refresh reference data against Policy 3.8.1, doc-base 0.9.1,
and developers-reference 3.4.1.
* data/standards-version/release-dates:
+ [RA] Add release date for 3.8.1.
.
* debian/control:
+ [RA] Update to standards version 3.8.1.
.
* lib/Dep.pm:
+ [RA] Remove, replaced with Lintian::Relation.
* lib/Lintian/Collect/Binary.pm:
+ [RA] Fix POD errors.
* lib/Lintian/Collect/Source.pm:
+ [RA] Fix POD errors.
* lib/Lintian/Command.pm:
+ [RA] Fix POD errors.
.
* private/refresh-debhelper-data:
+ [RA] Remove symlinks as a (possibly temporary) workaround to
packages that contain broken links to dh_* commands.
+ [RA] Exclude dh_gencontrol from debhelper commands that set
${misc:Depends} since it only sets it to empty when not already
set.
* private/refresh-fonts-data:
+ [RA] Correctly handle not specifying a Contents file on the command
line.
.
* t/runtests:
+ [RA] Add support for running test scripts under t/scripts via prove
(the standard Perl test harness).
