     - Add triggers to the list of binary control information files.
       Thanks to Charles Plessy <plessy@debian.org>.
   * Use colon instead of dot for user:group in dpkg debug output.
   * Remove support for obsolete DM-Upload-Allowed from Dpkg::Vendor::Debian.
   * Fix update-alternatives to use the current alternative link as the first
     best value, to avoid flip-flops of alternatives with equal priority.
     Closes: #699807
   * Fix clang warnings due to change of alignment requirements.
   * Change copyright file to point to GPL-2 instead of GPL.
   * Do not pass -e in shell script shebangs, set it in the body.
   * Add new dpkg-parsechangelog --show-field option to print a field value.
     Closes: #284664
   * Add new dpkg-buildpackage --force-sign option.
   * By default do not sign builds for UNRELEASED uploads on dpkg-buildpackage.
     Closes: #635117
   * Also check Build-Depends-Arch for minimal versions in dpkg-shlibdeps.
     Closes: #681470
   * Document dpkg-buildflags export mode usage in man page. Closes: #691449
     Thanks to Jonathan Nieder <jrnieder@gmail.com>.
   * Rename dpkg-buildflags configure exporter to cmdline, but preserve
     configure as a legacy alias.
   * Mask fortify hardening option from dpkg-buildflags output on noopt.
     New glibc 2.16 and later, issue a warning on this condition.
     Closes: #691745
   * Refer to path instead of file on dpkg-statoverride.
   * Always print a descriptive architecture column, even for empty or missing
     architectures on «dpkg-query --list».
   * Rework SELinux code on unpack to reload the label database if it has
     changed, for example while upgrading the SELinux policy package.
   * Execute maintainer scripts in a new execution context, based on the
     current one and the specific maintainer script filename, and if it's
     not different to the current one, use "dpkg_script_t" as a fallback.
   * Do not unnecessarily create a dpkg update log record on remove or purge.
   * Always reset want status when removing or purging a package; so this
     now resets holds among others. Closes: #163763
   * Always reset want status when installing a package; so this now resets
     holds among others. Closes: #162541
   * Defer cleanup of .dpkg-new and .dpkg-tmp paths on removal to the point
     when we are definitely removing the main path.
   * Activate file triggers on removal more accurately, only when we know
     we are inevitably removing things.
   * Change dir to / before executing maintainer scripts. Closes: #686782
   * Add new dpkg-deb --deb-format option and base --new and --old on it,
     as the latter are not future-proof, and neither can be guaranteed to
     produce a reliable output file format.
   * Drop archtable. It serves no purpose, it's Debian specific, it's
     usually outdated, and everyone should be using dpkg-architecture anyway.
   * Add musl-linux support to ostable and triplettable.
     Requested-by Kevin Bortis <wermut@gmail.com>.
   * Remove update-alternatives, dpkg-divert and dpkg-statoverride
     compatibility symlinks under /usr/sbin/.
   * Remove install-info wrapper.
   * Only ignore older packages if the existing version is informative. This
     allows any program using libdpkg to parse the available file to see again
     packages with versions lesser than 0-0 (like 0~0-0). Closes: #676664
   * Fix Dpkg::Control::Hash set_options() to take a hash as argument instead
     of two scalars.
   * Add a new Dpkg::Vendor get_vendor_dir() function.
   * Print correct path to vendor directory on error message in dpkg-vendor.
   * Do not hardcode the dpkg system configuration directory in perl scripts,
     respect build time setting.
   * Deprecate Dpkg lowercase and exported by default variables, replaced by
     new unified uppercase non-exported by default ones.
   * Do not set -fstack-protector in the default build flags on arm64 (it's
     not yet supported). Thanks to Matthias Klose <doko@ubuntu.com>.
     Closes: #711936
   * Add GCJFLAGS support to dpkg-buildflags. Closes: #708375
   * Clarify that dpkg --set-selections needs an up-to-date available db,
     by documenting it on the dpkg(1) man page, and warning whenever dpkg
     finds unknown packages while setting the selections. Closes: #703092
   * Print nicer error messages in perl scripts using Getopt::Long by trapping
     $SIG{__WARN__} to call usageerr() on option parse errors.
   * Move the exit call out from usage() in dpkg-scansources so that usageerr()
     gives a correct exit code. Thanks to Bernhard R. Link <brlink@debian.org>.
   * Print correct error message on unknown dpkg-name options before --.
   * Require at least one filename on dpkg-name after --.
   * Switch program usage errors to not print entire --help output.
     Closes: #681371
   * Document that «dpkg-parsechangelog -l-» can be used to read from stdin.
   * Support parsing compressed changelog files transparently. Closes: #684196
   * Sort files inside new diffs generated by dpkg-source lexicographically.
     Closes: #689193
   * Add support for a build_arch option in Dpkg::Deps deps_parse().
     Thanks to Colin Watson <cjwatson@ubuntu.com>. Closes: #697297
   * Move epoch-less or revision-less output logic to Dpkg::Version.
     Based on a patch by Bernhard R. Link <brlink@debian.org>.
   * Catch mismatches between version strings and format versions in
     dpkg-source. Ensure that a 3.0 (quilt) package has a non-native version
     and that a 3.0 (native) package has a native version. Closes: #700177
     Thanks to Bernhard R. Link <brlink@debian.org>.
   * Add support for mipsn32(el) and mips64(el) to arch tables.
     Thanks to YunQiang Su <wzssyqa@gmail.com>. Closes: #685096, #707323
   * Document --file and --label parser options in dpkg-parsechangelog(1).
   * Add a new configure --with-dpkg-deb-compressor option to allow selecting
     the default dpkg-deb compressor, mainly for downstreams.
   * Switch dpkg-deb default compressor from gzip to xz. Build dpkg.deb using
     gzip to make debootstrap life easier on non-Debian based systems.
   * Add support for gzip compression strategies to dpkg-deb. The new
     strategies are: filtered, huffman, rle and fixed.
   * Change dpkg and dpkg-deb help output to recommend apt instead of dselect
     as a user-friendly frontend.
   * Remove temporary file on error during «dpkg-divert --rename».
   * Fix value caching in Dpkg::Arch by not shadowing the variables.
   * Fix chmod() arguments order in Dpkg::Source::Quilt. Closes: #710265
     Thanks to Pablo Oliveira <pablo@sifflez.org>.
   * Add new dpkg-shlibdeps -l option to add private shared library directories.
     This should be used instead of abusing LD_LIBRARY_PATH to pass the paths,
     which might be problematic when cross-compiling. Closes: #698881
   * Only apply empy line and comma cleanups when doing substvar replacements
     on fields where those are relevant. Closes: #659814
   * Do not scan control files twice for PGP signature presence.

   [ Raphaël Hertzog ]
   * Fix dpkg-maintscript-helper rm_conffile and mv_conffile to do nothing
     when the conffile is no longer owned by the current (or named) package.
     Thanks to Steve Langasek for the patch. Closes: #716948
   * Improve dpkg-maintscript-helper behaviour in “Multi-Arch: same” packages
     by arch-qualifying package names read from the environment. Also add
     a warning about this potential problem in the manual page.
   * Fix usage of non-existent _() function in multiple places of the Perl
     code. Thanks to Lincoln Myers <lincoln@netapp.com> for the patch.
     Closes: #708607
