* Summary of tag changes:
+ Added:
- init.d-script-missing-start
- debian-news-entry-has-unknown-version
- debian-news-entry-uses-asterisk
- debian-news-entry-without-blank-line
- non-native-package-with-native-version
- udev-rule-in-etc
.
* {checks,collection}/*.desc:
+ [RG] Remove Unpack-Level fields and depend on the 'unpacked'
collection script as needed.
* checks/binaries:
+ [RG] Recognise hppa64 binaries and ignore them on the
binary-from-other-architecture check for hppa.
Thanks, Matthias Klose. (Closes: #562788)
* checks/changelog-file{,.desc}:
+ [RA] Per devref, recommend against NEWS.Debian entries formatted
with asterisks like changelog entries.
+ [RA] Check that the most recent NEWS.Debian entry is followed by a
blank line for apt-listchanges. Thanks, Adeodato Simó. (Addresses
the Lintian part of #523436)
+ [RA] Warn if the version of the latest NEWS.Debian entry doesn't
appear in the changelog. Thanks, Christoph Berg. (Closes: #550594)
* checks/control-file:
+ [RA] Fix parsing of dependencies for weak-library-dev-dependency
when the content of Depends begins with a newline. Thanks, Julien
Cristau. (Closes: #563370)
* checks/cruft:
+ [RA] Fix the regex to properly ignore CMakeCache.txt in the debian
directory. Thanks, Aaron M. Ucko. (Closes: #553264)
+ [RA] Check for a non-native package with a native version. Thanks,
Andreas Beckmann.
* checks/debhelper:
+ [RA] Always warn if debhelper is in use but no ${misc:Depends}
dependency is present rather than checking which specific debhelper
commands use it. Any debhelper command may start adding
dependencies to ${misc:Depends} at any time. Lower the certainty to
possible, since a missing ${misc:Depends} may not cause problems.
* checks/fields.desc:
+ [RA] Fix spelling error in dfsg-version-with-period tag description.
Thanks, Jakub Wilk. (Closes: #563185)
* checks/files{,.desc}:
+ [RG] Add a missing 'it' to the description of duplicate-font-file.
+ [RG] Add detection of nusoap to the embedded PHP libraries check.
+ [RG] Check that udev rules are not installed in /etc/udev/rules.d.
Thanks, Marco d'Itri. (Closes: #559208)
* checks/init.d{,.desc}:
+ [RG] Bump severity of init.d-script-sourcing-without-test to serious.
+ [RG] Lower the severity of init.d-script-does-not-provide-itself
to minor.
+ [RG] Fix a init.d-script-possible-missing-stop false positive when
stopping on runlevels 2-5.
+ [RG] Mention 'killprocs' in init.d-script-possible-missing-stop's
description. Thanks, Kurt Roeckx. (Closes: #562608)
+ [RG] Warn about init scripts with incomplete start runlevels.
+ [RG] Tighten check for missing dependency on local_fs or remote_fs
when using files with a name of 'var*' or 'usr*'.
+ [RG] Also recognise the use of the -r test as a file test, and
the test command when determining whether a /etc/default file is
being sourced unconditionally.
+ [RG] Correct the description of the
missing-dependency-on-{remote,local_fs} tags where 'is' was meant
to be used instead of 'are'.
* checks/manpages.desc:
+ [RA] Downgrade spelling-error-in-manpage to minor severity.
(Closes: #563039)
* checks/patch-systems:
+ [RA] Avoid false positives for patches modifying files in debian/*
when the parent directory in which the patch was created is named
debian. Thanks, Mark Brown. (Closes: #562875)
.
* collection/ar-info:
+ [RA] Skip *.a files that are dangling symlinks and discard error
output from ar. Correctly handle file names that contain shell
metacharacters.
* collection/unpacked{,.desc}:
+ [RG] New scripts to replace the unpack level 2.
.
* frontend/lintian:
+ [RG] Deprecate and replace unpack levels with the use of
collection scripts.
+ [ADB] Remove an unused variable declaration.
.
* lib/Spelling.pm:
+ [ADB] Add corrections for "nam" (name) and "nams" (names).
+ [RG] Add some more spelling errors.
+ [RG] Uppercase every character of the correction if every
character of the original word is too.
+ [RA] Superceded is an acceptable alternative spelling of superseded.
.
* man/lintian.1:
+ [RG] Document deprecation of unpack levels.
+ [ADB] Add the new "unpacked" collection script to the list of such
scripts.
+ [ADB] Correct the documentation of --tags-from-file to indicate that
the file contains tags to issue, not suppress.
.
* reporting/html_reports:
+ [RA] Sort the tags so that the maintainer view will group repeated
instances of the same tag and display extra information in sorted
order. (Closes: #563126)
+ [RA] Better handle missing information for packages in the package
lists and default the package area to main.
* reporting/templates/maintainer.tmpl:
+ [RA] Fix the logic to optionally display the archive area of
additional package entries under the same source package.
.
* unpack/unpack-{src,bin}pkg-l2:
+ [RG] Dropped in favour of collection/unpacked.
