Package: lintian
Version: 2.5.4
Severity: wishlist
Lintian is currntly reporting debian-changelog-line-too-long with a line
which is off-by-one. For example, having an oversized line 42 causes
Lintian to warn about line 41 instead.
This what vim thinks that line 40-42 would be∴
40 * Changes in the default configuration (not specific modules):
41 + Drop NameVirtualHost entirely. It is deprecated
42 + Replace Allow/Deny directives in the default configuration by by using the
Talking to Niels, he told me the reason would be, that the "the module
that parses the dch strips out the line we do not read the "raw" file,
but the last entry and it is the 41st line in that entry (which happens
to be the 42nd line in the file). presumbly you could add empty lines
before the initial "$src ($version)...." line and lintian would still
say 41 but vim would say 42 + count($empty_lines)"
(filed on my outdated desktop workstation, thus you can mostly ignore
versions below)

* checks/*:
+ [NT] Remove some old tags that are no longer useful.
(Closes: #663516)
+ [NT] Migrate to sorted_index from sorted_file_info.
+ [NT] Explicitly import needed subs from L::Util.
* checks/apache2{,.desc}:
+ [NT] New files to check for apache2 related packages. Thanks
to Arno Töll and Stefan Fritsch for the patches.
(Closes: #668546)
+ [NT] This check is not enabled by default. It can be used
via the debian/extra-apache2 profile.
* checks/binaries{,.desc}:
+ [NT] Move embedded library data to a data file.
+ [NT] Add ELF hardening checks. Thanks to Kees Cook for
report and the patches. (Closes: 650536)
+ [NT] Replace architecture tables with data files.
+ [JW] Check for missing Python3 numpy ABI dependency.
(Closes: #671024)
* checks/changelog-file:
+ [NT] Output the correct line number for the "line-too-long"
tag. Thanks to Arno Töll for the report. (Closes: #657402)
* checks/changes-file{,.desc}:
+ [NT] Remove Ubuntu specific handling of distribution names.
Instead replace it with a more generalized one that derivatives
can reuse by extending vendor specific data files. Thanks to
Daniel Dehennin for the suggestion. (Closes: #648777)
* checks/control-file:
+ [NT] Rewrote parts to use Lintian::Collect for fetching data.
* checks/cruft{,.desc}:
+ [NT] Check for quilt control dirs in the debian packaging files.
* checks/deb-format{,.desc}:
+ [NT] Replace old udeb compression tag with a more general
one. (Closes: #664600)
+ [NT] Remove logic for checking if a deb is meant for
Ubuntu. Instead unconditionally emit the tag and let the
vendor profiles handle it.
* checks/debconf:
+ [NT] Special case debconf providers for purge-debconf tag.
Generally they cannot use db_purge in postrm (for obvious
reasons), so the tag will be a false-positive in such
cases.
* checks/fields{,.desc}:
+ [NT] Add devref reference.
+ [NT] Remove special handling of the Ubuntu specific field,
"original-maintainer". This field is now handled by vendor
specific data files. (Closes: #649852)

release candidate versions. For non-native packages, this
check is only done on initial uploads of new upstream
releases. Thanks to Stefano Rivera and Julian Taylor for
their additional suggestions. (Closes: #649277)
* checks/filename-length.desc:
+ [ADB, NT] Reword description of package-has-long-file-name.
Thanks to Andreas Beckmann for suggestion.
* checks/files{,.desc}:
+ [NT] Remove "manual" lazy loads of data files.
+ [NT] Remove code for the uses-FHS-doc-dir tag.
+ [NT] Extend icon checks to all icon directories and look for
raster images in "scalable" icon directories. Thanks to
Paul Wise for the report and Felix Geyer for the patches.
(Closes: #628189)
* checks/group-checks:
+ [NT] Include Provides when checking for conflict relations.
Thanks to Damyan Ivanov for the report. (Closes: #672615)
* checks/java:
+ [NT] Ignore "codeless" jars if they appear to be maven
javadoc jars. Thanks to Ludovic Claude for the patch.
(Closes: #660845)
* checks/lintian.desc:
+ [NT] Updated the description of the override tags.
* checks/manpages{,.desc}:
+ [RA] Detect hyphen used as minus sign following a groff \f[C] font
change. Thanks, Iustin Pop. (Closes: #664471)
* checks/menu-format:
+ [NT] Move menu section lists into a data file.
+ [NT] If a package is missing a menu icon, check its direct strong
dependencies built from the same source (if any) for the icon.
This fixes false-positives menu-icon-missing in some cases.
* checks/menus{,.desc}:
+ [NT] Remove "manual" lazy load of data file.
* checks/nmu:
+ [NT] Remove Ubuntu specific code to handle their (lack of) NMUs.
These tags are instead suppressed by the Ubuntu profile.
* chekcs/rules:
+ [NT] Fix false-positive "ignores-make-clean-error" tag caused by
using make with -C and a dir containing the letter "i". Thanks to
Tobias Hansen for the report. (Closes: #671537)
* checks/scripts{,.desc}:
+ [NT] Mention devref 6.4 in command-with-path-in-maintainer-script.
Thanks to Arno Töll for the patch.

interpreter itself.
+ [NT] Ignore the lack of exec bit on th debconf shell modules.

+ [NT] Add references to the Policy upgrading checklist. Thanks to
Simon Paillard for the patch.

bin-pkg-control.

+ [NT] Remove code to look for old-style copyright file.
* collection/file-info{,.desc}:
+ [NT] Compress file-info output and bump version of file-info.

+ [NT] New files. Thanks to Kees Cook for the patch.
* collection/index{,.desc}:
+ [NT] Compress index output and bump version of index.
* collection/java-info{,.desc}:
+ [NT] Compress java-info output and bump version of java-info.
* collection/objdump-info:
+ [NT] Use "fail" from Lintian::Util.pm rather than embedding a
copy of it.

+ [NT] Remove root dir from sorted_index.
