Changes:
lintian (2.5.57~bpo9+1) stretch-backports; urgency=medium
.
* Rebuild for stretch-backports.
.
lintian (2.5.57) unstable; urgency=medium
.
* Summary of tag changes:
+ Added:
- debian-rules-should-not-set-CFLAGS-from-noopt
.
* checks/control-file.pm:
+ [CL] Avoid false positives in debian-control-has-empty-field when the
field is wrapped onto a new line. Thanks to Mattia Rizzolo for the
report. (Closes: #879977)
* checks/cruft.desc:
+ [CL] Add example on how to remove trailing whitespace with sed.
+ [CL] Drop README.source from files to check against the
file-contains-trailing-whitespace tag as it can include quotes
from upstream that would be ideally left intact.
* checks/debhelper.pm:
+ [NT] Remove code handling named compat levels.
* checks/files.desc:
+ [CL] Ignore embedded jQuery libraries for Doxygen. (Closes: #736360)
* checks/rules.desc:
+ [CL] Warn if packages set CFLAGS if the value of DEB_BUILD_OPTIONS
contains noopt. (Closes: #718640)
.
* commands/lintian.pm:
+ [NT] Have lintian resignal between various stages of the
processing. Previously, ill-timed signals would be caught and
"semi-ignored" with lintian happily continuing to process the
next package. (Closes: #878575)
.
* data/debhelper/named-compat-levels:
+ [NT] Removed; no longer used.

* checks/binaries.desc:
+ [CL] Apply patch from Adrian Bunk to mention the lack of the "-g"
flag as a common cause for the debug-file-with-no-debug-symbols tag.
(Closes: #878806)
+ [CL] Apply patch from Guillem Jover to strongly discourage the use
of the getconf(1) interface for LFS support. (Closes: #879935)

autotools-dev package. These have been replaced by the changes
inside debhelper itself.

the autotools-dev tooling is used in debian/rules.
(Closes: #871711)
* checks/fields.pm:
+ [CL] Apply patch from Nicolas Boulenguez to accept and recommend the
new vcs-mtn mtn:// uri format. (Closes: #878798)

warnings on an empty "Section:" field. (Closes: #878515)
* checks/files.pm:
+ [CL] Lower the severity of package-installs-java-bytecode from
"error" to "warning". (Closes: #879862)
+ [CL] Do not trigger package-installs-java-bytecode if the path
contains "WEB-INF", "demo", "doc" etc. (Closes: #879860)
+ [CL] Verify files triggering package-installs-java-bytecode files
really are Java class files. (Closes: #879861)

+ [CL] Include the offending URI in debian-watch-uses-insecure-uri

.

* data/fields/perl-provides:
+ [CL] Update for Perl 5.026001.
* data/scripts/interpreters:
+ [CL] Add cwl-runner to the list of interpreters. (Closes: #851126)
* data/spelling/corrections:
+ [CL] Revert addition of "none were" -> "none was" multiword spelling
correction as it is "acceptable beyond serious criticism".
(Closes: #878457)
.
* debian/control:
+ [NT] Set R³ to "no". Lintian builds fine without root and
Build-Depends on fakeroot for the tests that still require
fakeroot.
.
* doc/lintian.xml, checks/{fields,files,menu-format}.desc, etc.:
+ [CL] Apply patch from Ville Skyttä <ville.skytta@iki.fi> to update
a large number of errors in links. (Closes: #878521)

POD synopsis tests if Test::Pod is not available. (Closes: #878522)
* t/tests/debconf-config-*, t/tests/legacy-maintainer-scripts:

separate test protected by a Test-Requires now that dpkg >= 1.19.0
will bail out on that condition.
.
lintian (2.5.55) unstable; urgency=medium
.
* Summary of tag changes:
+ Added:
- debian-watch-uses-insecure-uri
- django-package-does-not-depend-on-django
- example-script-uses-deprecated-nodejs-location
- priority-extra-is-replaced-by-priority-optional
- python-module-has-overly-generic-name
- systemd-service-file-wraps-init-script
+ Removed:
- copyright-year-in-future
.
* checks/copyright-file.pm:
+ [CL] Drop copyright-year-in-future after all; it's just too error
prone and time-consuming to maintain given the severity of the issues
it can find. (Closes: #877766)
* checks/cruft.pm:
+ [CL] Exempt debian/copyright from license-problem-non-free-RFC tag
to avoid false-positives on meta-references. (Closes: #877999)
* checks/debhelper.pm:
+ [AB] Also recognize dh-exec's "=>" arrow if surrounded by tabs.
(Closes: #877905)
* checks/fields.{desc,pm}:
+ [NT] Add an info tag for packages that use "Priority: extra". Thanks
to Mattia Rizzolo for the suggestion. (Closes: #870898)
* checks/files.pm:
+ [CL] Ignore privacy breach violations in comments. (Closes: #877421)
+ [CL] Check for Python modules with overly generic names such as
"tests" or "test". (Closes: #875964)
* checks/{files,manpages,menu-format}.{desc,pm}:
+ [NT] Stop considering usr/man, usr/X11R6/bin and usr/X11R6/man as
manpage directories / PATH directories to simplify some code paths.
Nothing ships manpages in these directories and lintian emits tags
to strongly discourage people from doing so.
* checks/init.d.pm:
+ [CL] Avoid warning for init.d-script-not-marked-as-conffile when
the init.d script does not exist; we will already be alerted via
the init.d-script-not-included-in-package error.
* checks/python.pm:
+ [CL] Move to "Type: source, binary" check type.
+ [CL] Also match packages named "python2-*" as relating to Python 2.x.
+ [CL] Warn about Django libraries that do not depend on Django itself.
(Closes: #877292)
+ [CL] Do not emit python-foo-but-no-python3-foo for -common packages.
* checks/scripts.desc:
+ [CL] Add missing example-script-uses-deprecated-nodejs-location tag.
(Closes: #877142)
+ [NT] Apply patch from Mattia Rizzolo to improve the tag description
for script-uses-deprecated-nodejs-location.
+ [CL] Actually check for a dependency on sensible-utils before
emitting script-needs-depends-on-sensible-utils. Thanks to Daniel
Reichelt for the detailed bug report. (Closes: #877439)
* checks/standards-version.desc:
+ [CL] Correct invalid link to upgrading-checklist. Thanks to Dann
Frazier for the report. (Closes: #878184)
* checks/systemd.{desc,pm}:
+ [CL] Warn if native systemd service files only wrap existing SysV/LSB
init scripts. (Closes: #870704)
* checks/watch-file.{pm,desc}:
+ [CL] Warn for debian/watch files using insecure URIs such as HTTP or
FTP, similar to vcs-field-uses-insecure-uri. (Closes: #849515)
.
* data/{common => fields}/priorities:
+ [NT] Rename file.
* data/fields/essential:
+ [MR] Remove 'mount' from the essential packages. Starting with
util-linux version 2.29.2-3 the Essential flag has been removed.
(Closes: #877511)
* data/fields/priorities:
+ [NT] Remove "extra".
* data/files/privacy-breaker-websites:
+ [CL] Replace (eg.) "You may use libjs-prototype package" with "You
may use the libjs-prototype package".
.
* commands/lintian.pm:
+ [NT] Simplify handling of uncaught exceptions.
.
* doc/lintian.xml:
+ [NT] Document that the XDG_DATA_HOME directory can be used for
user profiles and data files. This has been supported for quite
a while but the documentation incorrectly listed "$HOME/.lintian"
instead (which in fact did not work for this purpose).
(Closes: #701477)
.
* frontend/dplint:
+ [NT] Restore "$HOME/.lintian" as a directory that is used for
user profiles and data files. It was advertised as such in the
documentation but the code actually only used the XDG_DATA_HOME
path. Thanks to Daniel Kauffman for the report. (Closes: #875636)
+ [NT] Correct the order of restricted search paths (user directories
and /etc/lintian). It incorrectly used /etc/lintian before the
user directory.
.
* lib/Lintian/Util.pm:
+ [NT] Rename the "fail" subroutine to "internal_error" to better
reflect its purpose.
.
* t/tests/binaries-from-other-arch:
+ [NT] Make test architecture specific as it fails on certain
architectures. (Closes: #877147)
* t/tests/python-new-python2-package/*:
+ [CL] Correct Depends of python2.7 → python3 in Python 3 test
package.
* t/tests/python-python2-no-python3-unrel/debian/debian/control.in:
+ [CL] Add test for ignoring python-foo-doc packages.
+ [CL] Correct short descriptions of binary packages.
