Changes:
lintian (1.23.30) unstable; urgency=low
.
The "beating false positives off with a stick" release.
.
* checks/common_data.pm:
+ [RA] Add mktemp and sysvinit-utils as known essential packages.
+ [RA] Add Vcs-Mtn and Vcs-Browser to the known source package
fields.
+ [RA] Add Kernel-Version to known udeb control fields.
* checks/control-files:
+ [RA] Allow clilibs, but don't try to check the syntax of it yet.
Thanks, Sebastian Dröge. (Closes: #378088)
* checks/copyright-file:
+ [RA] Exclude the Affero General Public License from the check for
references to the shared GPL copy. (Closes: #420077)
+ [RA] Replace yet another hand-rolled dependency parser with Dep.
* checks/cruft{.desc,}:
+ [RA] Check for svk commit message files.
* checks/debconf{.desc,}:
+ [RA] Remove the dependency check for SETTITLE since all debconf
implementations back to oldstable support it.
+ [RA] Reduce the dependency check for error templates to info since
all debconf implementations back to stable support it.
* checks/debhelper{.desc,}:
+ [RA] Downgrade the dependency check for dh_python and the Python
policy to info since all debhelpers back to stable support it.
+ [RA] Downgrade the dependency check for compatibility level V5 to
info since all debhelpers back to stable support it.
* checks/fields{.desc,}:
+ [RA] The CDBS Python rules only call pycentral or pysupport during
the binary targets, so those dependencies can be safely moved to
Build-Depends-Indep. Still allow them in Build-Depends, though,
since that's where CDBS likes to put them. Thanks, Tristan
Seligmann. (Closes: #420526)
+ [RA] Allow the Python core packages themselves to depend on
python-minimal.
+ [RA] Remove the version constraints for python-central and
python-support dependencies since stable released with a working
version and they weren't in oldstable.
+ [RA] Remove the dependency check on dh_installxfonts for the X.Org
transition since the debhelper released with stable does the right
thing and this dependency is not useful for backports to oldstable.
+ [RA] Remove the version on the quilt dependency check. It's not
worth the effort to maintain a separate version check for oldstable
backports. (Closes: #420160)
* checks/files{.desc,}:
+ [RA] Check for svk commit message files.
+ [RA] Don't consider {copying,license}.dtd extra license files; the
Mozilla suite uses them for non-licenses. (Closes: #420558)
+ [RA] Use $pkg rather than reading fields/package for the x11-common
pre-depend check.
+ [RA] Allow x11-common to install /usr/X11R6/bin.
+ [RA] Downgrade the pre-depends on x11-common requirement for
packages installing into /usr/include/X11 or /usr/lib/X11 to info
since it's only needed for upgrades from sarge or early etch.
* checks/md5sums:
+ [RA] Don't warn about a missing md5sums file if the package contains
nothing for which we would generate an MD5 checksum. Thanks,
Andreas Beckmann. (Closes: #420465)
* checks/manpages:
+ [RA] Cope with more uses of - in *roff escapes that don't need
hyphen warnings.
+ [RA] Don't consider a binary an X binary if it's a symlink into
/etc/X11. (seyon does something weird but probably legitimate.)
+ [RA] Fix manpage-for-non-x11-binary-in-wrong-directory and
manpage-for-x11-binary-in-wrong-directory output. (Closes: #295072)
* checks/menus{.desc,}:
+ [RA] In doc-base control files, check for Index fields for HTML and
Info documents and require that each section after the header have a
Format field. Thanks, Bernhard R. Link. (Closes: #419847)
* checks/rules:
+ [RA] Listing a rule as a dependency of .PHONY is sufficient to mark
it as present for GNU make and hence sufficient for Policy's
requirement. Thanks, Peter Eisentraut. (Closes: #419446)
* checks/scripts{.desc,}:
+ [RA] Packages calling update-xmlcatalog must depend on xml-core.
Also avoid false positives when a package itself provides the
program its maintainer scripts use. Thanks, Daniel Leidert.
(Closes: #419461)
+ [RA] Check for maintainer scripts calling read (but exclude those
that include /usr/share/debconf/confmodule on the grounds that
they're probably only using it as a fallback). Based on a patch by
Luk Claes. (Closes: #231770)
+ [RA] Add pike7.6 and ruby1.9 as valid interpreters.
+ [RA] Diagnose use of /bin/env with a more specific message than the
generic unusual interpreter tag.
+ [RA] Remove the version constraint on the gconf-schemas check since
all versions of gconf2 back to stable provide this script and it's
not worth maintaining a separate check for oldstable backports.
* checks/shared-libs{.desc,}:
+ [RA] Warn if a package declares dependencies in its shlibs control
file that cannot be satisfied by that package (including via
Provides). (Closes: #56440)
.
* reporting/harness:
+ [RA] Include overridden tags in the lintian output so that we can do
statistical reporting on them and see them in lintian.log.
* reporting/html_reports:
+ [RA] Create stub pages for maintainers with only lintian-clean
packages. (Closes: #305173)
+ [RA] Sort packages on each maintainer's page.
+ [RA] Report statistics on info tags as well.
+ [RA] Generate better file names for maintainer pages with weird
characters.
+ [RA] Fix Perl warnings.
