   * checks/*:
     + [NT] Remove some old tags that are no longer useful.
       (Closes: #663516)
     + [NT] Migrate to sorted_index from sorted_file_info.
     + [NT] Explicitly import needed subs from L::Util.
   * checks/apache2{,.desc}:
     + [NT] New files to check for apache2 related packages.  Thanks
       to Arno Töll and Stefan Fritsch for the patches.
       (Closes: #668546)
     + [NT] This check is not enabled by default.  It can be used
       via the debian/extra-apache2 profile.
   * checks/binaries{,.desc}:
     + [NT] Move embedded library data to a data file.
     + [NT] Add ELF hardening checks.  Thanks to Kees Cook for
       report and the patches.  (Closes: 650536)
     + [NT] Replace architecture tables with data files.
     + [JW] Check for missing Python3 numpy ABI dependency.
       (Closes: #671024)
   * checks/changelog-file:
     + [NT] Output the correct line number for the "line-too-long"
       tag.  Thanks to Arno Töll for the report.  (Closes: #657402)
   * checks/changes-file{,.desc}:
     + [NT] Remove Ubuntu specific handling of distribution names.
       Instead replace it with a more generalized one that derivatives
       can reuse by extending vendor specific data files.  Thanks to
       Daniel Dehennin for the suggestion.  (Closes: #648777)
   * checks/control-file:
     + [NT] Rewrote parts to use Lintian::Collect for fetching data.
   * checks/cruft{,.desc}:
     + [NT] Check for quilt control dirs in the debian packaging files.
   * checks/deb-format{,.desc}:
     + [NT] Replace old udeb compression tag with a more general
       one.  (Closes: #664600)
     + [NT] Remove logic for checking if a deb is meant for
       Ubuntu.  Instead unconditionally emit the tag and let the
       vendor profiles handle it.
   * checks/debconf:
     + [NT] Special case debconf providers for purge-debconf tag.
       Generally they cannot use db_purge in postrm (for obvious
       reasons), so the tag will be a false-positive in such
       cases.
   * checks/fields{,.desc}:
     + [NT] Add devref reference.
     + [NT] Remove special handling of the Ubuntu specific field,
       "original-maintainer".  This field is now handled by vendor
       specific data files.  (Closes: #649852)
     + [JW,NT] Check for common mistakes with preview release and
       release candidate versions.  For non-native packages, this
       check is only done on initial uploads of new upstream
       releases.  Thanks to Stefano Rivera and Julian Taylor for
       their additional suggestions.  (Closes: #649277)
   * checks/filename-length.desc:
     + [ADB, NT] Reword description of package-has-long-file-name.
       Thanks to Andreas Beckmann for suggestion.
   * checks/files{,.desc}:
     + [NT] Remove "manual" lazy loads of data files.
     + [NT] Remove code for the uses-FHS-doc-dir tag.
     + [NT] Extend icon checks to all icon directories and look for
       raster images in "scalable" icon directories.  Thanks to
       Paul Wise for the report and Felix Geyer for the patches.
       (Closes: #628189)
   * checks/group-checks:
     + [NT] Include Provides when checking for conflict relations.
       Thanks to Damyan Ivanov for the report.  (Closes: #672615)
   * checks/java:
     + [NT] Ignore "codeless" jars if they appear to be maven
       javadoc jars.  Thanks to Ludovic Claude for the patch.
       (Closes: #660845)
   * checks/lintian.desc:
     + [NT] Updated the description of the override tags.
   * checks/manpages{,.desc}:
     + [RA] Detect hyphen used as minus sign following a groff \f[C] font
       change.  Thanks, Iustin Pop.  (Closes: #664471)
   * checks/menu-format:
     + [NT] Move menu section lists into a data file.
     + [NT] If a package is missing a menu icon, check its direct strong
       dependencies built from the same source (if any) for the icon.
       This fixes false-positives menu-icon-missing in some cases.
   * checks/menus{,.desc}:
     + [NT] Remove "manual" lazy load of data file.
   * checks/nmu:
     + [NT] Remove Ubuntu specific code to handle their (lack of) NMUs.
       These tags are instead suppressed by the Ubuntu profile.
   * chekcs/rules:
     + [NT] Fix false-positive "ignores-make-clean-error" tag caused by
       using make with -C and a dir containing the letter "i".  Thanks to
       Tobias Hansen for the report.  (Closes: #671537)
   * checks/scripts{,.desc}:
     + [NT] Mention devref 6.4 in command-with-path-in-maintainer-script.
       Thanks to Arno Töll for the patch.
     + [NT] Do not emit unusual-interpreter if the package provides the
       interpreter itself.
     + [NT] Ignore the lack of exec bit on th debconf shell modules.
   * checks/standards-version.desc:
     + [NT] Add references to the Policy upgrading checklist.  Thanks to
       Simon Paillard for the patch.
 .

   * collection/java-info{,.desc}:
     + [NT] Compress java-info output and bump version of java-info.
   * collection/objdump-info:
     + [NT] Use "fail" from Lintian::Util.pm rather than embedding a
       copy of it.
     + [NT] Use Lintian::Collect to find ELF files.
     + [NT] Replace all usage of objdump with readelf.
       (Closes: #614034)
     + [NT] Compress objdump-info output and bump version of objdump-info.
   * collection/strings{,.desc}:
     + [NT] Compress strings output and bump version of strings.

   * lib/Lintian/Collect/Package.pm:
     + [NT] Remove an extra level of quoting in index.
     + [NT] Remove root dir from sorted_index.
     + [NT] Keep trailing slash in dir names for file_info.
   * lib/Lintian/Collect/Binary.pm:

     + [NT] Allow pre-process sub to alter existing value for a key
