lintian 2.5.58 source package in Ubuntu
Changelog
lintian (2.5.58) unstable; urgency=medium
* checks/cruft.pm:
+ [CL] Rewrite file-contains-trailing-whitespace tag to be a hash from
the filename to the regex we should match.
+ [CL] Allow trailing tabs in debian/rules files; they are a very
common idiom in Makefiles.
* checks/fields.desc:
+ [SL] Update of the documentation for the change introduced in 2.5.53:
Transitional packages should now be "oldlibs/optional" rather
than "oldlibs/extra".
* checks/python.pm:
+ [CL] Don't count python-django and python3-django as Django modules.
This avoids a warning where Django itsel triggers
"django-package-does-not-depend-on-django".
* data/fields/name_section_mappings:
+ [CL] Apply patch from Simon McVittie to prevent a misdetection of
libcanberra-gstreamer as a GNU Smalltalk library. (Closes: #880140)
* data/spelling/corrections:
+ [AB] Add more misspellings of the word "dependency".
* doc/lintian.xml:
+ [CL] Improve overrides docs using source-is-missing as an example.
(Closes: #838807)
* vendors/ubuntu/main/data/changes-file/known-dists:
+ [CL] Add bionic as a known Ubuntu distribution. Thanks Jeremy Bicha!
(Closes: #880115)

- 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.
