Changes:
 lintian (2.5.72) unstable; urgency=medium
 .
   * Summary of tag changes:
     + Added:
       - debian-rules-uses-deprecated-systemd-override
       - debian-watch-does-not-check-gpg-signature
     + Removed:
       - debian-watch-may-check-gpg-signature
 .
   * checks/binaries.pm:
     + [CL] Avoid a false positive for spelling-error-in-binary that was
       causing a FTBFS on armhf.  (Closes: #888074)
     + [CL] Drop a duplicate line in spelling-error-in-binary exceptions.
     + [CL] Move spelling-error-in-binary exceptions to a data file.
     + [CL] Support binutils 2.29.90.20180122 (vs. 2.29.1) when parsing ELF
       files for errors as the newer version modified the readelf output.
       This was causing a testsuite failure when checking the
       apparently-corrupted-elf-binary tag.  (Closes: #888456)
   * checks/cruft.{desc,pm}:
     + [CL] Do not emit "license-problem-php-license" when the source comes
       from pecl.php.net: "The last agreement with FTP Masters was that PHP
       license is OK when the sources some from PECL repository."
       (Closes: #810780)
     + [CL] Allow, for example, debian/missing-sources/foo.js directories to
       represent the source for foo.js. This is useful when foo.js is the
       result of concatenating multiple files.  (Closes: #836771)
   * checks/debhelper.{desc,pm}:
     + [CL] Warn about packages that use about dh_systemd_enable or
       dh_systemd_start overrides whilst using debhelper compat level 11 as
       they are no longer being called.  (Closes: #887899)
     + [CL] Include the offending context and line when emitting the
       brace-expansion-in-debhelper-config-file tag.
     + [CL] Avoid false positives and remove an existing (incorrect) test
       for apparent brace expansions in config files that do not include a
       comma.  (Closes: #888304)
   * checks/fields.pm:
     + [CL] Also check xfonts-foo for font-package-not-multi-arch-foreign.
   * checks/files.desc:
     + [CL] Downgrade extra-license-file from "W" to "I".  (Closes: #740118)
   * checks/patch-systems.{desc,pm}:
     + [CL] Ignore files called "README" or "README.patches" when checking
       packages for patch-file-present-but-not-mentioned-in-series.
       (Closes: #888413)
     + [CL] Ignore commented-out patches in series files when checking the
       patch-file-present-but-not-mentioned-in-series tag.
     + [CL] Check "$vendor.series" (not "series.$vendor") when checking for
       the patch-file-present-but-not-mentioned-in-series tag.
   * checks/source-copyright.desc:
     + [CL] Clarify that paragraph ordering matters in the description of
       the unused-file-paragraph-in-dep5-copyright tag.  (Closes: #762261)
   * checks/watch-file.{desc,pm}:
     + [CL] Rename the debian-watch-may-check-gpg-signature tag to
       debian-watch-does-not-check-gpg-signature to avoid confusion around
       the "may check" implying that the package in question does such
       checking and we disapprove of it. Thanks to Andreas Beckmann for the
       suggestion.  (Closes: #735040)
 .
   * data/fields/name_section_mappings:
     + [CL] Ensure xfonts-foo are recognised as part of the "x11" section to
       match the definition on https://packages.debian.org/en/sid/.
       (Closes: #878609)
   * data/spelling/corrections:
     + [PW] Add a number of corrections.
 .
   * debian/control:
     + [CL] docbook-xml is required to build the documentation, so drop
       "<!nocheck>" build restriction.
   * debian/copyright:
     + [CL] Add missing initials for Gergely Nagy, Sylvestre Ledru and Steve
       Langasek.  (Closes: #831729)
 .
   * lib/Lintian/Check.pm:
     + [CL] Avoid false positives in the spelling-error-in-description
       (etc.) tags where the repetition is part of an acronym expansion such
       as "ORA (ORA Recursive Acronym)".  (Closes: #883719)
