Changes:
 dpkg (1.18.19) unstable; urgency=medium
 .
   [ Guillem Jover ]
   * Stop emitting Built-For-Profiles from dpkg-gencontrol. The information
     is already provided in .buildinfo files, and including it in the binary
     packages makes them unreproducible even when the profile used would not
     alter its contents. Closes: #831524
   * Do not allow empty epochs and revisions in versions. When there's at
     least one colon or one dash, we should expect epoch and revision numbers.
   * Always set SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH in dpkg-buildpackage and dpkg-source. Use
     the current date if the changelog does not have one. Closes: #849081
   * Refactor update-alternatives pathname existence check into a new function.
   * Avoid useless repeated lstat()s in update-alternatives.
   * Only check for debian/tests/control file once in dpkg-source.
   * Generate Testsuite-Restrictions fields from the test restrictions in
     dpkg-source into .dsc files. Closes: #847926
     Based on a patch by Iain Lane <laney@debian.org>.
   * Improve the ELF ABI mismatch detector in dpkg-shlibdeps, by parsing the
     ELF header ourselves. While still not perfect (things like linux-i386 and
     hurd-i386 will still match), it will filter lots of previously matching
     objects that should have been ignored, and will work even when objdump
     does not know about the specific object details. Closes: #849913
   * Add initial support for DEB_BUILD_OPTIONS to dpkg-genbuildinfo. This will
     make it possible to enable or disable specific features that should be
     recorded in the .buildinfo file. For now only “all” and “path” are
     supported. Closes: #848705
   * Add again the architecture from the filename to .changes files for any
     artifact with one. This reverts the change introduced in dpkg 1.18.11.
   * Fold the filtering and checksumming of files to distribute in a .changes
     file in dpkg-genchanges into the initial loop. This way we do not include
     architectures for artifacts we are not going to distribute, and do not
     unnecessarily recompute the checksums for artifacts like the sources.
   * Do not compute the architecture list twice in dpkg-genchanges.
   * Include .buildinfo files also for source-only uploads in dpkg-genchanges.
     Closes: #846164
   * Fix check for expected number of binary artifacts in dpkg-genchanges, to
     only take into account the artifacts that we are distributing.
   * Fix parsing of Pre-Depends and Depends in dpkg-genbuildinfo, so that
     the code parses both and not just the first to appear in the stanza.
     Based on a patch by Johannes Schauer <josch@debian.org>.
   * Add support for signed .buildinfo files to dpkg-buildpackage. Add new
     -ui and --unsigned-buildinfo options. Closes: #843925
   * Portability:
     - On GNU/Hurd try to use the new process executable name attribute from
       libps, to properly match on start-stop-daemon --exec.
   * Perl modules:
     - Fix Debian architecture wildcard parsing so that matching four-tuple
       matchings work. Missed in dpkg 1.18.11.
       Reported by Julian Andres Klode <jak@debian.org>.
     - Add new import tags for Dpkg::Arch.
     - Abort on EOF in patch name prompt in Dpkg::Source::Package::V2,
       instead of getting into an infinite loop. Closes: #851441
     - Call anonymous subs via -> operator instead of casting with &, and fix
       bogus POD documentation to match the code.
     - Add new Auto-Built-Package field to Dpkg::Control::Fields.
     - Add a new debug() reporting function, and switch code to use it.
     - Add new Dpkg::BuildOption parse_features() method refactored from
       Dpkg::Vendor::Debian.
   * Documentation:
     - Cleanup software requirements in README.
     - Move control member file references from dpkg(1) to deb(5).
     - Fix typos in docs and code comments.
     - Document Auto-Built-Package field in deb-control(5).
   * Build system:
     - Disable disk pre-allocation by default, but let the builder re-enable
       it via a new configure option. This has been causing major performance
       issues on "modern" filesystems.
   * Packaging:
     - Add debsig-verify to dpkg Suggests. The code optionally supports this
       specific signed .deb verification program.
       Prompted by Stuart Prescott <stuart@debian.org>.
   * Test suite:
     - Generate and check all currently possible architecture wildcards.
     - Correctly iterate over all default and passed .dsc template substvars.
