Binary package hint: dpkg
Please merge changes from debian unstable
dpkg (1.14.7) unstable; urgency=low
[ Guillem Jover ]
* Add back $dpkglib into @INC, needed by the controllib.pl require in
822-date. Closes: #440962
* Document in dpkg-scanpackages that apt now requires Packages.bz2 in
preference to Packages.gz. Closes: #440973
* Stop recognizing the obsolete Optional field when building packages.
* Use fakeroot, if present, by default to gain root privileges in
dpkg-
* Fix typos in dpkg-deb.1 and start-stop-
Thanks to A. Costa.
* After '<prerm> remove' fails and while doing the error unwinding, if
the '<postinst> abort-remove' call succeeds, preserve the old status
instead of unconditionally setting it to 'Installed'. Closes: #432893
Thanks to Brian M. Carlson.
* Add Vcs-Browser and Vcs-Git fields to debian/control.
* Add a Homepage field to debian/control (to be changed later when
there's a more formal site).
* Allow comparing unsupported architectures for equality and identity.
Based on a patch by Frank Lichtenheld. Closes: #427210
* Document Origin and Bugs fields in deb-control.5. Closes: #173463
* Do not replace substvars for build dependencies (it was not supported
anyway).
[ Frank Lichtenheld ]
* Add _MTN to dpkg-source -i default regex. Suggested by Jari Aalto.
* Convert dpkg-buildpackage to a Perl script.
Fix some bugs in the new script detected in experimental:
Closes: #444362
* dpkg-buildpackage accepts a -j<n> option now which will set
MAKEFLAGS(
parallel=<n> in DEB_BUILD_OPTIONS will be passed to MAKEFLAGS as
well. Based on an idea by Robert Millan. Closes: #440636
* Allow dpkg-source -I without a pattern which will load a default
list of pattern similar to -i without regexp. Patch by
Jari Aalto. Closes: #440972
* Rework documentation of dpkg-source's -i and -I options.
Closes: #323911, #440956
* Add --utf8-strings to gpg call in dpkg-buildpackage since
that seems to be the better default. Suggested by Székelyi Szabolcs.
Closes: #379418
* Let dpkg-buildpackage error out early if the version number from
the changelog is not a valid Debian version. Closes: #216075
* Fix dpkg-source to create correct diffs for files with spaces in
their name (apparantly we don't have many of those ;).
Based on a patch by Marcel Toele. Closes: #445380

dpkg (1.14.6) unstable; urgency=low
[ Frank Lichtenheld ]
* Synchronise usage information of dpkg, dpkg-deb, and
dpkg-query man pages. This fixes some small mistakes
and also Closes: #321520
[ Guillem Jover ]
* Man pages cleanup:
- Some italics and bold fixes.
- Unify ellipsis, argument separator, and remove redundant program name
preceding the options.
- Substitute 'FILES' header with 'SEE ALSO' in dpkg-buildpacka
and remove leftover string from man page split. Closes: #439306

- Unify author and copyright information formatting.
* Move variables automatically modified at build time for the perl scripts
to a new style perl module (Dpkg) and make all programs use it.
* Switch 'dpkg-gettext.pl' to a new style perl module (Dpkg::Gettext).
* Implement support for Breaks field. Closes: #379140
Thanks to Ian Jackson.
* Run the deconfiguration of each package to be deconfigured once, instead
of once per each conflicting package being removed. Closes: #378003
Thanks to Ian Jackson.
* Do not segfault when the result from a 'dpkg-query -l' is bigger than
the total number of current packages, and do not produce repeated
results with overlapping patterns on 'dpkg-query -W'. Closes: #428427
* Tightening dpkg-dev versioned Depends to dpkg 1.14.6, and dpkg Conflicts
against << dpkg-dev 1.14.6, where the perl modularization started.
* Do not print empty lines after 'Setting up ...' output. Closes: #392317
* When a slave alternative is inapplicable do not attempt to create the
slave link before removing it again. Closes: #411699
Thanks to Ian Jackson.
* Do not consider it a file conflict if the package contains a symlink
to a directory where the existing symlink on-disk points to the
same place. Closes: #377682
Thanks to Ian Jackson.
* Fix perl warnings:
- When removing a non diverted file with dpkg-divert. Closes: #438416
* Implement support for Homepage field. Closes: #142324
* Ignore XB- fields instead of XC- fields from control file binary package
stanzas in dpkg-genchanges.

stanza in dpkg-genchanges, instead of leaving unknown fields unwarned.
* Implement support for Vcs-Browser, Vcs-Arch, Vcs-Bzr, Vcs-Cvs, Vcs-Darcs,
Vcs-Git, Vcs-Hg, Vcs-Mtn and Vcs-Svn fields in control file source

dpkg (1.14.8) unstable; urgency=low
[ Raphael Hertzog ]
* Heavy rework of dpkg-shlibdeps:
- Support "symbols" files to generate finer-grained dependencies.
Those files can be created by the new dpkg-gensymbols command.
Closes: #430367
- Uses now all paths in RPATH (instead of only the first).
Closes: #395942
- Support parsing include directives in /etc/ld.so.conf. Closes: #431597
- Libraries are also searched in the public directories of packages
being built and thus debian/shlibs.local can effectively define
dependencies for libraries that are being built. Closes: #80340
- "symbols" files use the full SONAME as key instead of splitting it in
(name, version) like in the "shlibs" format. This allows binaries to
be linked with unversioned libraries and not fail. Note that
unversioned libraries are still a very bad idea. Closes: #48208
- dpkg-shlibdeps now supports '-x<package>' options that can be used to
exclude packages from generated dependencies (use with care though).
Closes: #41907, #109954
- If dpkg-shlibdeps doesn't find any dependency information for a
shared library that is actively used, then it will fail. This can be
disabled with the option '--ignore-
* Switch perl programs to use the new Dpkg::Deps module. This changes the
behaviour of dpkg-gencontrol and dpkg-source which will rewrite and
simplify dependencies and build dependencies as possible. Multiple
dependencies on the same package are replaced by their intersection.
Closes: #178203, #186809, #222652
[ Frank Lichtenheld ]
* Add $(MAKE) check to build target
* Allow to use other compressions than gzip on dpkg-source -b
(NOTE: this will result in a Format: 2.0 source package!).
Closes: #382673
* Various small fixes to the manpages suggested by Helge Kreutzmann.
Closes: #445858
* Fix Dpkg::BuildOptions (and thereby dpkg-buildpackage) to really
set DEB_BUILD_OPTIONS. Found by Daniel Shepler. Closes: #446119
* Change some ' in shell code in dpkg-source.1 and dpkg-query.1 to
proper \(aq. Reported by Daniel van Eeden. Closes: #447476
[ Guillem Jover ]
* Use shipped perl modules when calling perl programs at build time.
* Switch perl programs to use the new Dpkg::ErrorHandling and Dpkg::Arch
perl modules.
* Add support for format strings in Dpkg::ErrorHandling functions.
* Move build and host arch detection code from dpkg-architecture to
Dpkg::Arch.
* Add initial udeb support:
- Support new fields fields Package-Type, Subarchitecture, Kernel-Version
and Installer-
- New '--type' option for dpkg-s...
