Changelog

lintian (2.117.0ubuntu1) noble; urgency=medium

  * Merge from Debian Unstable, remaining changes:
    - Fix building udebs, now that in Ubuntu noudebs is implied profile
      (LP: #1918120).
    - Add zst as allowed compression for .deb & .udeb although we don't
      actually ship udeb packages that support zst (LP: #1923845).
    - Add AC_INIT in
      macro-not-cross-compilation-safe/build-spec/orig/src/configure.ac
      (LP: #1950989).
    - Add -fPIC ld flags to
      checks/binaries/prerequisites/numpy/binaries-missing-depends-on-numpy-abi
    - macro-not-cross-compilation-safe is expecting line one, we added AC_INIT
      so it should now match line three.
    - Ubuntu enables LTO by default, so without-fat-lto-objects is expected to
      fail.
