lintian (2.2.15) unstable; urgency=low
The "BTS cleanup" release.
* Summary of tag changes:
+ Added:
- build-depends-on-non-build-package
- desktop-entry-limited-to-environments
- example-interpreter-in-usr-local (pedantic)
- example-interpreter-not-absolute
- example-script-without-interpreter
- example-script-uses-bin-env
- example-shell-script-fails-syntax-check (pedantic)
- example-wrong-path-for-interpreter
- example-unusual-interpreter (pedantic)
- global-data-in-games-directory
- init.d-script-does-not-provide-itself
- init.d-script-possible-missing-stop
- init.d-script-provides-virtual-facility
- init.d-script-should-depend-on-virtual-facility
- init.d-script-starts-in-stop-runlevel
- ocaml-custom-executable
* checks/binaries{,.desc}:
+ [RA] Add a new check for OCaml bytecode executables. Patch from
Stéphane Glondu. (Closes: #498138)
+ [RA] Allow ldconfig to be statically linked.
* checks/changelog-file:
+ [RA] Don't warn about a symlinked changelog file if the version
contains ubuntu. Thanks, Benjamin Drung. (Closes: #536434)
* checks/common_data.pm:
+ [RA] Moved the essential package list to data/fields.
* checks/copyright-file:
+ [RA] Use Lintian::Data to read the essential package list.
* checks/debhelper:
+ [RA] Ignore whitespace when checking debian/compat, since Perl will
when converting it to a number. Thanks, Niels Thykier.
(Closes: #545430)
* checks/fields{,.desc}:
+ [RA] Exclude base-files from the needlesly-depends-on-awk tag
and from the warning about depending on a virtual package without
a real package for the awk virtual package.
+ [RA] Use Lintian::Data to read the essential package list.
+ [RA] Stop allowing unversioned build dependencies on coreutils. The
migration from fileutils is long since finished.
+ [RA] Check for build dependencies on packages that should not be
used for builds. (Closes: #540594)
+ [RA] Allow architecture-dependent metapackages, since it can be
useful for metapackages to change dependencies based on the
architecture. Thanks, Vagrant Cascadian. (Closes: #544004)
* checks/files{,.desc}:
+ [RA] Suppress non-standard-dir-perm for /tmp, /var/tmp, /var/local,
/var/lock, and /usr/src if they have their normal owner and
permissions. This suppresses some Lintian tags for base-files.
+ [RA] Allow base-files to ship /var/backups and /var/local.
+ [RA] Remove swfobject.js from the known packaged Javascript
libraries. The version in libjs-yui is old and the new version is
not packaged. Thanks, Giuseppe Iuculano. (Closes: #542046)
+ [RA] Allow t1- and xfonts- as prefixes for font packages since the
font regex is also looking for Type 1 fonts. Thanks, Rogério
Brito. (Closes: #542389)
+ [RA] Stop looking for *.pcf files outside font packages. The check
wasn't triggering since PCF files are always compressed, and the
situation for PCF font packages is more complex and not suitable for
the same check.
+ [RA] Add mootools.js to embedded-javascript-library. Patch from
Marcelo Jorge Vieira (metal). (Closes: #545716)
+ [RA] Check for putting data that should be in /usr/share under
/usr/share/games. Patch from Raphael Geissert. (Closes: #534486)
* checks/init.d{,.desc}:
+ [RA] Add new checks for starting in runlevels 0 and 6, providing a
virtual facility, not providing a facility matching the script, not
depending on a virtual facility, and inconsistent stop runlevels.
Patch from Raphael Geissert. (Closes: #544221)
* checks/manpages{,.desc}:
+ [ADB] Add HTTPS to the list of recognised protocols for URLs in manpages
which should not cause manpage-has-errors-from-man to be emitted.
(Closes: #543641)
+ [RA] Document the MANWIDTH variable when running man by hand to
check for man page errors. (Closes: #542584)
+ [RA] Adjust the exclusion of pod2man's .IX macro for the new
output format from groff.
* checks/menu-format{,.desc}:
+ [RA] Add a pointer to desktop-file-validate in many of the tag
descriptions for desktop tags. (Closes: #539403)
+ [RA] Mention in the description of desktop-entry-invalid-category
that whitespace isn't allowed and categories are case-sensitive.
+ [RA] Add a new check for desktop entries that are limited to
multiple environments. NotShowIn was probably intended instead.
Thanks, Andrew Lee. (Closes: #537737)
* checks/rules:
+ [RA] Anchor the dh_quilt regex to not trigger on commented-out
calls. Patch from Cesare Tirabassi. (Closes: #543259)
+ [RA] When checking for out-of-order debhelper calls, take into
account the -p flag and only check within each package. Thanks,
Michael Koch. (Closes: #545219)
* checks/scripts{,.desc}:
+ [RA] Don't warn about missing dependencies on programs if the
program invocation is followed by || true. Thanks, Aurelien Jarno.
(Closes: #541372)
+ [RA] Permit diversion of a man page as long as the package is
installing a man page by the same name in the same numeric section,
even if the specific section is different. Thanks, Niko Tyni.
(Closes: #543781)
+ [RA] Check example scripts for most of the same issues as scripts
elsewhere in the package, but report problems with a different set
of tags with info or pedantic severity. Patch from Damyan Ivanov.
(Closes: #543873)
+ [RA] Add seed. Thanks, Josselin Mouette. (Closes: #543779)
+ [RA] Add pike 7.8. Thanks, Magnus Holmgren. (Closes: #543262)
* checks/shared-libs:
+ [RA] Allow ld.so to be executable. (Closes: #538716)
* data/fields/essential:
+ [RA] New list of essential packages.
+ [RA] Add dash. (Closes: #541744)
+ [RA] Add diffutils and remove diff. (Closes: #544277)
* data/fields/no-build-depends:
+ [RA] New list of packages that should not be used as build
dependencies, currently containing only java-propose-classpath.
Thanks, Josh Triplett.
* data/files/fonts:
+ [RA] Refresh and include Type 1 fonts and packages as well.
* lib/Lintian/Collect/Binary.pm:
+ [RA] Stop looking for the special OCaml symbol. OCaml custom
binaries are now detected another way. Patch from Stéphane Glondu.
* lib/Lintian/Schedule.pm:
+ [RA] If declining to add a duplicate file to the Lintian check
schedule, return success to avoid a spurious error message. Patch
from Raphael Geissert. (Closes: #542072)
* lib/Spelling.pm:
+ [RA] Add spelling correction for "aplication." (Closes: #546404)
* private/refresh-fonts-data:
+ [RA] To match what checks/files looks for, also look for *.pfb files
and packages starting with t1-.
* reporting/{html_reports,templates/clean.tmpl}:
+ [JP] Don't link to full report if the maintainer only has clean
packages. (Closes: #545781)
