   [ Sebastian Ramacher ]
   * Revert "Turn embedded-library into a classification tag. (Closes:
     #932634)". The tag embedded-library is used by FTP masters for
     automatic rejects.  So let's revert this change. First, #932634 has
     seen no coordination with FTP masters. Second, it confuses developers
     when their packages get rejected for tags that are not emitted
     locally.
 .
   [ Simon McVittie ]
   * obsolete-packages: Add some more transitional packages.
   * desktop/dbus: Check for dbus policy files installed into /etc/.

   * .gitignore: Also ignore debian/*.debhelper files and drop wrong
     trailing slash for doc/lintian.html.
   * private/refresh-virtual-packages-data: Replace "egrep" with "grep -E".
   * Replace "egrep" and "fgrep" in all test suite dummy packages with "grep

   * Add build-dependencies of the test suite.
   * Fix test broken by dpatch removal.

     and wbritish. (Closes: #1019541)
   * Make spellintian.t to use the installed corrections list under autopkgtest.
   * t/scripts/tags/fields.t: Allow running with just "prove -l".
   * Remove spelling corrections which are valid words and now caught by
     the new spellintian.t check against English dictionaries.
     (Closes: #1019235)
   * Remove valid word "tye" from data/spelling/corrections.

     git checkout.
   * Fix read error with libpath-tiny-perl ≥ 0.142 if debian/templates is a
     directory. Thanks to Salvatore Bonaccorso and src:linux. :-)
   * Fix arm64 autopkgtest by using a shell script as example instead of a
     compiled C binary for testing bin-sbin-mismatch. Also fix that so far
     on other architectures there was a bin-sbin-mismatch false negative
     accepted by the test suite while the true positive on arm64 hadn't
     been accepted by the test suite. (Closes: #1025868)

   * spellintian.t: Make sure that no bad spelling is used as good spelling
     of another bad spelling. Prompted by #1027399. Add build-dependency on
     "libarray-utils-perl <!nocheck>" and autopkgtest dependency for that.
   * Fix bad spellings that were used as good spelling for another bad
     spelling. (Closes: #1027399)
   * Do not emit executable-stack-in-shared-library on MIPS architectures
     for now. (Closes: #1025436, see also #1022787)
   * run-private-scripts.t:
     + Do not run auto-reject-diff as it requires network access.
     + Skip generate-tag-summary without git.
