lintian 2.5.57 source package in Ubuntu

Changelog

lintian (2.5.57) unstable; urgency=medium

  * Summary of tag changes:
    + Added:
      - debian-rules-should-not-set-CFLAGS-from-noopt

  * checks/control-file.pm:
    + [CL] Avoid false positives in debian-control-has-empty-field when the
      field is wrapped onto a new line. Thanks to Mattia Rizzolo for the
      report.  (Closes: #879977)
  * checks/cruft.desc:
    + [CL] Add example on how to remove trailing whitespace with sed.
    + [CL] Drop README.source from files to check against the
      file-contains-trailing-whitespace tag as it can include quotes
      from upstream that would be ideally left intact.
  * checks/debhelper.pm:
    + [NT] Remove code handling named compat levels.
  * checks/files.desc:
    + [CL] Ignore embedded jQuery libraries for Doxygen.  (Closes: #736360)
  * checks/rules.desc:
    + [CL] Warn if packages set CFLAGS if the value of DEB_BUILD_OPTIONS
      contains noopt.  (Closes: #718640)

  * commands/lintian.pm:
    + [NT] Have lintian resignal between various stages of the
      processing.  Previously, ill-timed signals would be caught and
      "semi-ignored" with lintian happily continuing to process the
      next package.  (Closes: #878575)

  * data/debhelper/named-compat-levels:
    + [NT] Removed; no longer used.

lintian: Debian package checker

 Lintian dissects Debian packages and reports bugs and policy
 violations. It contains automated checks for many aspects of Debian
 policy as well as some checks for common errors.
 .
 It uses an archive directory, called laboratory, in which it stores
 information about the packages it examines. It can keep this
 information between multiple invocations in order to avoid repeating
 expensive data-collection operations. This makes it possible to check the
 complete Debian archive for bugs, in a reasonable time.
 .
 This package is useful for all people who want to check Debian
 packages for compliance with Debian policy. Every Debian maintainer
 should check packages with this tool before uploading them to the
 archive.
 .
 This version of Lintian is calibrated for policy version 4.1.4.
