Changes: 
 lintian (1.23.33) unstable; urgency=low
 .
   The "menu and cruft reorganization" release.
 .
   * checks/common_data.pm:
     + [CW] Add automaken as a known virtual package.
     + [CW] Update architectures to dpkg 1.14.5, adding solaris-* and lpia.
     + [RA] Add %known_obsolete_emacs.
   * checks/cruft{.desc,}:
     + [RA] Check for .git directories in source packages.  Thanks, Julien
       Cristau.  (Closes: #433516)
     + [RA] Substantially rewrite how all cruft checking against source
       packages is done, incorporating debdiff in the process.  There are
       now two tags for most source package cruft problems: one for files
       introduced in the Debian diff or in a native package, and one for
       files present upstream.  The former is at warning severity and the
       latter is at info severity, since it's usually not worth repackaging
       the upstream source to remove such files.  In the process,
       standardize the names of all of the tags and pull the regexes out
       into data instead of code for easier maintenance.  (Closes: #434744)
   * checks/debdiff{.desc}:
     + [RA] Removed, incorporated into checks/cruft.
   * checks/debian-readme:
     + [RA] Replace all uses of tag_error and tag_warn with just tag.
   * checks/fields{.desc,}:
     + [RA] Tag packages listing emacs21 as the preferred Emacs flavor in a
       dependency.  Thanks, Tatsuya Kinoshita.  (Closes: #434978)
     + [RA] Start tagging unversioned dependencies on coreutils again since
       the transition from fileutils is long-since finished.  Thanks,
       Guillem Jover.  (Closes: #436058)
   * checks/files{.desc,}:
     + [RA] Check for .git directories in binary packages.
   * checks/menu-format{.desc,}:
     + [RA] Switch to the new menu hierarchy, which will be in the next
       release of Policy.  Add specific checks for the major renamings to
       hopefully cut down on the confusion and provide some specific
       guidance.  Remove the code that allowed for applications to create
       new sub-menus, since the current menu documentation says not to do
       that.  (Closes: #431844)
     + [RA] Add checks of desktop files.  The checks so far are basic, but
       do include key and category verification.  Based heavily on work by
       Javier Fernández-Sanguino Peña.  (Closes: #277441, #433411)
   * checks/scripts{.desc,}:
     + [RA] If rm output is redirected to /dev/null, don't think that rm is
       removing /dev/null.  Thanks, Robert Luberda.  (Closes: #431259)
     + [RA] xjed also provides jed-script.  Thanks, Jörg Sommer.
       (Closes: #431629)
     + [RA] Don't complain about ruby libraries in /usr/lib/ruby that have
       shebang lines.  This is a common means for embedding unit tests in
       Ruby libraries.  Thanks, Paul van Tilburg.  (Closes: #431545)
     + [RA] Don't push depending directly on update-inetd in the long
       description of maintainer-script-needs-depends-on-update-inetd.
       Most packages should depend on inet-superserver.  Leave the check
       the same for the time being, however.
     + [RA] Replace all uses of tag_error and tag_warn with just tag.
   * checks/shared-libs:
     + [RA] Exclude udebs from dependency checking in the shlibs files
       since binary packages may legitimately declare udeb dependencies on
       other packages.  Thanks, Loïc Minier.  (Closes: #431395)
   * checks/spelling:
     + [RA] Replace all uses of tag_error and tag_warn with just tag.
   * checks/version-substvars:
     + [RA] Don't skip other checks for binNMUability when warning about
       the deprecated ${Source-Version} substvar.  Thanks, Lior Kaplan.
       (Closes: #432959)
 .
   * frontend/lintian:
     + [RA] Add \w+-backports to the known distribution list.  Thanks,
       Vincent Danjean.  (Closes: #432268)
 .
   * lib/Tags.pm:
     + [RA] Replace any newlines in the extra information to the tag
       function with \n.
 .
   * man/lintian.1:
     + [RA] Remove the mention of the debdiff check script.
