(Closes: #886297) + [FL] Fix version parsing for native packages. * checks/control-file.{desc.pm}: + [CL] Check for packages that should specify Rules-Require-Root. (Closes: #886479) * checks/debconf.pm: + [CL] Don't warn about unknown template type "entropy" when a package depends on cdebconf. (Closes: #677870) * checks/debhelper.{desc,pm}: + [CL] Add a check for packages that specify "dh --with quilt" but use the "3.0 (quilt)" source format. Thanks to Mattia Rizzolo for the idea. (Closes: #886566) * checks/fields.pm: + [CL] Warn about orphaned packages that are not maintained in the Debian infrastucture. (Closes: #886057) + [CL] Emit pedantic warnings for packages that refer to a non-Git version control systems hosted in the Debian infrastructure for the upcoming salsa.debian.org migration. (Closes: #885974) + [CL] Include the offending "Bugs" field value in the output of the bugs-field-does-not-refer-to-debian-infrastructure tag. + [CL] Ensure that bugs-field-does-not-refer-to-debian-infrastructure can be overridden by not emitting them for -dbgsym packages. Thanks to Thorsten Glaser for the report. (Closes: #886426) * checks/huge-usr-share.pm: + [CL] Bump arch-dep-package-has-big-usr-share thresholds; they were last set in 2004. (Closes: #648755) * checks/pe.pm: + [CL] Apply a patch from Stephen Kitt to avoid false-positives when checking PE32+ Windows Portable Executable files, additionally dropping the now-unnecessary magic number parsing. (Closes: #886555) * checks/python.{pm,desc}: + [CL] Don't warn about django-package-does-not-depend-on-django for -doc packages, etc. + [CL] Lower the severity of the "dependency-on-python-version-marked-for-end-of-life" tag from normal ("W:") to wishlist ("I:") as it is not necessarily actionable by the maintainer. This reverts bug #883581. (Closes: #886259) + [CL] When checking for a Python 3 variant of a Python 2.x package also consider any package that declares a binary dependency on the ${python3:Depends} substvar to catch packages that have been renamed. Thanks to Scott Kitterman for the report. (Closes: #886303) * checks/rules.pm: + [CL] Also allow $(overridden_command) when checking for the override_dh_fixperms-does-not-call-dh_fixperms etc. tags. * checks/scripts.desc: + [CL] Also mention Recommends and Suggests in the opening paragraph of python-script-but-no-python-dep. (Closes: #687141) * checks/shared-libs.pm: + [CL] Skip Objective-C libraries for the no-symbols-control-file tag as instance/class methods do not appear in the symbol table. Thanks to Yavor Doganov for the report and help. (Closes: #749202) * checks/source-copyright.desc: + [CL] Avoid false positives for missing-notice-file-for-apache-license by also looking for files with a .txt extension in binary packages. Thanks to Ferenc Wágner for the report. (Closes: #886343) * checks/standards-version.desc: + [CL] Downgrade severity of out-of-date-standards-version from normal ("W:") to wishlist ("I:"). (Closes: #886210) * checks/watch-file.pm: + [CL] Apply patch from Carlos Maddela <email address hidden> to prevent false-positives when options contain escaped quotation marks. (Closes: #886574) * collection/src-orig-index: + [CL] Return the replaced string after injecting any tarball prefix (ie. "foo/bar\n"), not Perl's result of the replacement (ie. "1"). (Closes: #886586) * data/common/dbg-pkg: + [CL] Identify both python-foo-dbg and python3-foo-dbg as known debug packages to avoid a false-positive for the former when checking for debian-control-has-obsolete-dbg-package. (Closes: #886271) * data/files/fnames: + [CL] Warn about packages that ship (non-reproducible) Python Hypothesis examples. (Closes: #886101) + [CL] Only test for packages shipping gschemas.compiled files in usr/share/glib-*/schemas as it is valid for packages to generate schemas at build time. Thanks to Jonathan Carter (highvoltage) for the followup. (Closes: #884142) * data/spelling/corrections: + [PW] Add a number of corrections. * data/standards-version/ancient-date: + [CL] Change the policy of "ancient-standards-version" to "a release of Policy from the previous stable release cycle" and update the value to match. (Closes: #886219) * reporting/templates/maintainer.tmpl: + [CL] Make the previously-hidden package anchor links visible so that one can right-click and copy the URL instead of constructing it manually. * t/tests/files-multiarch-foreign-files: + [CL] Ensure that we install to a multiarch directory on all architectures to prevent a FTBFS on, for example, i386.

- 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.
