  [ Chris Lamb ]
  * Check for packages still refering to the deprecated Alioth
    service in their Homepage field. (Closes: #933500)
  * Quote the package build path to avoid test failures when building in a
    directory whose name contains a '+' or other regex metacharacters.
    (Closes: #939674)
  * Don't emit the missing-build-dependency,
    package-uses-debhelper-but-lacks-build-depends or
    debhelper-but-no-misc-depends tags for packages that do not use
    debhelper but use specific parts of dh-autoreconf. (Closes: #939874)
  * Emit missing-build-dependency for packages that do not use debhelper
    but use specific parts of dh-autoreconf without build-depending on it.
  * Revert merging our two CI pipeline stages. Whilst this avoided an
    additional ~5 minute initial setup/teardown time, it meant that the
    cache misses attempted to do both the within the 1h timeout. Whilst we
    might still timeout overall, at least with a split we are very likely
    to have cached the build packages.
  * Upgrade and rename classification-level tag
    rules-requires-root-implicitly to rules-requires-root-missing. (Closes:
    #933240)
  * Drop the unnecessary pear-package-feature-requires-newer-pkg-php-tools
    tag. Thanks, Antonio Ospite and David Prévot. (Closes: #939698
  * Don't emit latest-debian-changelog-entry-changed-to-native if the
    latest changelog entry references "native package".

  [ Felix Lechner ]
  * Remove parts related to gzip timestamps from the files-general test.
    (Closes: #939673)
  * Refocus the 'binaries-missing-lfs' test on the tag
    'binary-file-built-without-LFS-support'. (Closes: #939639)
  * Add the changelog-distribution-does-not-match-changes-file tag to the
    ftp-master-auto-reject profile
  * In Lintian::Collect::Source, use a centralized version parser.
  * Add new tag 'license-file-listed-in-debian-copyright' to avoid
    unnecessary clutter.
  * Fix command-line processing for --check-part so 'all' can also be part
    of a list.
  * Associate the multiline-field tag with the 'lintian' check.

  [ Xavier ]
  * Fix false-postivies when checking for the
    pkg-js-autopkgtest-file-does-not-exist tag with regards to comments.
    (Closes: #940082)

  [ Rafael Laboissiere ]
  * Avoid false positives for library-not-linked-against-libc with Octave
    add-ons. (Closes: #940282)

  [ Faidon Liambotis ]
  * Use the "build-depends-all" relation to correctly detect binaries built
    with Go.
