Changes:
lintian (1.23.16) unstable; urgency=low
.
The "What's this Russ guy up to?" release
.
* checks/binaries{.desc,}:
+ [RA] Add a check for the new "Invalid operation" error from
objdump -T. Skip shared-lib-without-dependency-information for
files in /usr/lib/debug.
* checks/changelog-file:
+ [FL] Add line number to output of wrong-bug-number-in-closes.
Inspired by #349761 from Steinar H. Gunderson.
* checks/common_data.pm:
+ [FL] Add armeb to %non_standard_archs as requested by
Martin Michlmayr. (Closes: #350653)
* checks/debconf:
+ [RA] Packages that depend on dbconfig-common are allowed to have
config scripts without templates or an explicit debconf dependency.
Reported by Marcus Better. (Closes: #344421)
* checks/debconf.desc:
+ [RA] Clarify the necessary dependencies for packages using SETTITLE.
(Closes: #349616)
* checks/debhelper:
+ [RA] Recognize setting DH_COMPAT with := in addition to = in
debian/rules. (Closes: #349272)
+ [RA] CDBS sets DH_COMPAT to 4 but doesn't export it. It does create
debian/compat with that value if none was present. Reflect this
behavior to avoid spurious compat level warnings when using CDBS.
Based on a patch by Jay Berkenbilt. (Closes: #350228)
* checks/fields:
+ [RA] Allow a quilt build-dependency for arch-independent packages if
the quilt makefile rules are included. (Closes: #349273)
+ [RA] If clean depends on a rule that calls dh_clean rather than
calling it directly, still allow debhelper in Build-Depends for
arch-independent packages. Reported by Michael Stilkerich.
+ [JvW] Commented that Uploaders no longer will hit the multiline field
issue, updated testsuite accordingly
* checks/manpages:
+ [FL] Ignore more warnings ("cannot adjust line", "can't break
line") in non-English manpages. (Closes: #349792)
+ [RA] cd into the parent directory before checking man pages with man
so that .so inclusions are processed correctly. Based on a patch by
Nicolas François. (Closes: #349614)
* checks/menu-format:
+ [RA] Look for binaries in /usr/X11R6/bin, not /usr/bin/X11, per
Policy 11.8.7. Thanks, Matej Vela. (Closes: #354890)
* checks/menu-format.desc:
+ [RA] Use "menu manual" rather than "menu" for references to more
clearly distinguish from the Debian Menu Policy. (Closes: #347510)
* checks/po-debconf:
+ [RA] If there are template files in debian, assume the package uses
debconf; don't require a dependency or config script. Patch by
Thomas Huriaux. (Closes: #353294)
* checks/scripts:
+ [RA] Allow /tmp in variable settings. It's likely to be a false
positive. Reported by Frank Küster. (Closes: #344998)
+ [RA] Make the syntax checking of shell scripts more robust against
filenames containing shell metacharacters. Reported by Michael
Stilkerich.
+ [RA] Add fish and expectk to the list of valid interpreters.
(Closes: #351624, #353770)
+ [RA] /usr/bin/tcl is provided by tclx8.3, not tcl. Reported by
James R. Van Zandt. (Closes: #351324)
+ [RA] Allow more variations on leading magic to invoke some
interpreter rather than then shell. Bypass the ELF magic check for
scripts using magic that relies on having no leading #! line.
Reported by Frank Küster. (Closes: #344269)
+ [JvW] Add check against package suffering from debhelper bug #337664,
per Joey Hess, which had broken error detection (Closes: #358523)
* checks/shared-libs:
+ [JvW] Fix postinst-must-call-ldconfig to also get emitted when there is
no postinst at all, instead of just one lacking a ldconfig call
+ [JvW] Implement checks for "udeb:" lines in shlibs files
(Closes: #357541)
+ [JvW] Consider also the soname version for shlibs checking, preventing
some bogus 'duplicate' warnings, and actually throw a warning when
soname version doesn't match
+ [JvW] Added error when udeb postinst calls ldconfig, that must never
happen (thanks to Frans Pop for noticing, see #203056)
.
* debian/{control,copyright}:
+ [RA] Add Russ Allbery to Uploaders and copyright.
+ [JvW] Version dpkg-dev requirement to >= 1.13.17, for
unpack/unpack-srcpkg-l2
.
* frontends/lintian-info:
+ [RA] Avoid Perl uninitialized value warnings when given output that
looks like lintian messages without tags. (Closes: #352606)
.
* collection/objdump-info:
+ [RA] Pass "Invalid operation" errors from objdump -T on to the check
scripts instead of failing. (Closes: #249435)
.
* man/lintian.1:
+ [RA] Add references to dh_make, debhelper, dpkg-buildpackage, and
linda in new reference sections. (Closes: #322288)
* man/{lintian.1,lintian-info.1}:
+ [RA] Left-justify and disable hyphenation for readability.
.
* unpack/unpack-srcpkg-l2:
+ [JvW] Use -q with dpkg-source to surpress warnings about unsigned source
packages. Requires dpkg-dev 1.13.17
