Change log for pkg-perl-tools package in Ubuntu

pkg-perl-tools (0.78) unstable; urgency=medium

  * Remove references to ancient lintian version from
    README.lintian and package description.
  * t/pod.t: also test files in the man5/ directory.
  * POD fixes: replace `--' with `-' in NAME section.
    Manpages are expected to have one dash as a separator between the name und
    the whatis entry. Otherwise this gets ugly with `whatis' or `man -k'.
  * dpt-missing-upload: encode all ':' and '~' in version
    for creating tags.
  * dpt-never-uploaded:
    - fix comments output
    - check if package is in the NEW queue
  * examples/buildpackage-pdebuild: add support for 'nodoc'.
  * examples/check-build: run duck under timeout.
  * Update copyright years.

  * examples/check-build: move shellcheck comment out of continuation
    line.
  * examples/check-build: avoid proxy in piuparts call harder.
    '--proxy=' doesn't work (anymore?), piuparts still takes
    Acquire::http::Proxy from the host apt config.
    So explicitly set it to DIRECT to avoid having an unresolvable apt proxy.
  * Add new tool: dpt-never-uploaded.
  * Add dependency on libpath-tiny-perl.
  * dpt-lib.sh: gitddiff(): improve finding last Debian tag.
    Use git-describe and gbp's idea of Debian tags.
    Thanks to Yadd for the bug report and the proposal.
    Closes: #1032105
  * Debian::PkgPerl::Util: add new convenience function
    download_and_cache_file.
  * dpt-never-uploaded: use Debian::PkgPerl::Util's
    download_and_cache_file function.
  * dpt-ci-failures: use Debian::PkgPerl::Util's download_and_cache_file
    function and remove -n option.
  * Update copyright years.
  * dpt-lib.sh{,.pod}: add promptyesno().
  * examples/check-build: use dpt-lib.sh.
  * examples/u: use dpt-lib.sh's promptyesno() function.
  * Set a default value for DPT__SCRIPTS across the board.
    This helps if DPT__SCRIPTS is not set, e.g. when a (sub) command is not
    run via the dpt wrapper.

  [ intrigeri ]
  * GitLab CI: run shellcheck on examples/check-build.
  * check-build: make changes brought by previous commit shellcheck compliant.

  [ gregor herrmann ]
  * Add new files to debian/copyright.
  * Drop unneeded version constraints from (build) dependencies.

  [ gregor herrmann ]
  * dpt-repack.sh: set default for DPT__SCRIPTS.
    When not called as `dpt repack.sh' but from a debian/repack.stub, the
    DPT__SCRIPTS variable is typically unset which makes the script fail.
  * dpt-new-upstream: parse upstream version out of the string returned by
    UDD/vcswatch, which changed recently.
  * dpt-import-orig: redirect STDERR of uscan(1) to /dev/null.
  * dpt-prepare: remove trailing newline from psql output
    (ci.debian.net query).
  * dpt-fixup: check if debian/watch exists before trying to
    grep through it.
  * Add new dpt subcommand: ready-for-upload - list packages in Git which
    need an upload.
  * New script dh-make-perl-dev: run dh-make-perl from Git checkout.
  * examples/u: add -n option (to add --new to dgit push-source).
  * Update copyright years.

  [ intrigeri ]
  * examples/check-build:
    - drop auto-detection of autopkgtest virtualization server and hard-coding
      of the backing chroot/image. Instead, users can now configure their
      preferred virtualization server using these environment variables:
      $AUTOPKGTEST_VIRT_SERVER and $AUTOPKGTEST_VIRT_SERVER_ARGS. Else, the
      default (schroot) is used as a fallback.
    - fix shell syntax for error reporting of non-existent BUILDDIR.
    - remove duplicate "E: " prefix in error message
    - lint. This addresses the shellcheck violations that were the easiest to
      fix.

    installed python3-popcon is new enough.

    distribution is not UNRELEASED.
  * Update autopkgtest/examples/default-tests-control.
  * Update copyright years.
  * Remove duplicate entry in debian/copyright. Thanks to lintian.
  * Add lintian override for new false positive source-contains-patch-
    failure-file tag.
  * Declare compliance with Debian Policy 4.5.1.

  * dpt-missing-upstream:
    - use HTTPS for snapshot.debian.org
    - pass --allow-unrelated-histories to `git merge', when merging the
      upstream branch into master at the end.
      Otherwise Git fails since 2.9 when the upstream branch has been newly
      created.
  * dpt-import-orig:
    - when checking upstream Git tags, also look for _$UVERSION.
      This matches the not unpopular RELEASE_1.23 pattern.

      Filter out '.gitignore', 'debian/*', '.git/*', '.git' from upstream
      tarballs.

    - error out if downloaded file is empty
    - catch wget failures

  * Bump versioned (build) dependency on lintian to 2.84.0.

  [ gregor herrmann ]
  * dpt-salsa: run configurerepo() at the end of fromattic().
    The default config might have changed after a package has been moved to
    the attic, so re-configure it when moving it back.
  * Update documentation about enabling the pkg-perl lintian profile.
    lintian has changed its profile handling in 2.79.0.
  * dpt-import-orig: rewrite changelog update after import.
    Use gbp-import-orig's --postimport feature, which knows about the new
    upstream version and Debian version, to call debchange instead of
    calculating the new Debian version ourselves, dealing with epochs and (not
    yet) with suffixes.
  * dpt-new-upstream: handle WAITS-FOR without a version.

  [ Felix Lechner ]
  * Remove Lintian check descriptions; they are obsolete.
    Lintian now looks at a check's entry points to derive that information.
  * Adapt Lintian checks to case-sensitive Deb822 parser.
    The deb822 format allows for flexible capitalization, but the parser was
    recently modified to capture the literal field names.

  [ gregor herrmann ]
  * Update examples/u (uploading helper): add distribution to commit
    message.
  * Bump debhelper-compat to 13.

  [ gregor herrmann ]
  * dpt-new-upstream: change the handling of the 'problems' category.
    Only put a package into this category if the version in git is >= the new
    upstream version. Otherwise we might miss new upstream releases which fix
    what we have noted as a problem.
  * dpt-new-upstream: mangle upstream versions with '_'.
    Dpkg::Version's version_compare_relation chokes on invalid versions like
    1.22_90, so we change '_' to a '+' and back later.
  * dpt-debian-upstream: rewrite bitbucket.org URLs to HTTPS as well like
    we do for other services.
  * dpt-salsa: fix warning message when libparallel-forkmanager-perl is
    not installed. Thanks to CSILLAG Tamas for noticing.
  * dpt-salsa: warn about potentially misconfigured repositories.
    The configurerepo() sub sets a tag named 'dpt-salsa-configured', and the
    mrconfig() sub checks for existence of this tag, and outputs the list of
    repositories without it at the end.

  [ Felix Lechner ]
  * Use Lintian's new file index interface in Lintian checks.
    The file lookup functions were updated. The old interface is obsolete.
    Replaces $processable->index with $processable->patched->lookup in
    the checks that ship with this package.

  [ gregor herrmann ]
  * Bump versioned dependency on lintian after the changes in the included
    tests.
  * Add a lintian override for manpage-without-executable tags.
    We have dpt-foo(1) manpages for "dpt foo" subcommands.

  * dpt new-upstream:
    - make the contents of the ignore-version category more accurate.
      Don't classify a package in the "ignore-version" category if the
      ignored version is lower than the current upstream one.
    - optimize by short-circuiting earlier when there's no new upstream
      release.
      This avoids having to parse every line of the changelog entry when we
      already know we will ignore whatever such processing might yield.

    Moves the tag definitions out of the checks into their own file
    hierarchy, which is sorted alphabetically. Also adds the check
    association to each tag definition.

  * autopkgtest/smoke: use xvfb-run if available.
    If debian/rules uses xvfb-run for the test suite, it will be in the build
    dependencies and therefore present in the test chroot.
  * autopkgtest/smoke: copy the full directory structure of test-files.
    If the listed files are in a subdirectory, we want the subdirectory to be
    copied too rather than having the files end up in the main target
    directory.
  * autopkgtest/smoke: create a full dummy blib directory structure.
    This makes 'use blib' work rather than throw an error.
  * autopkgtest/smoke: Create a dummy file under blib/lib/ to appease some
    test suites.
    This placates tests that try to assemble a list of files to test in the
    source tree and croak if they can't find any.
  * autopkgtest/syntax: Skip the test for packages with soft dependencies.
    The package might have modules that need Suggested packages.
    We don't want to keep track of those manually, so skip the test altogether
    for such packages.
  * autopkgtest/runner: ignore .proverc files in tested packages.
  * autopkgtest/runner: save the exit code from failed tests
  * autopkgtest: new test type runtime-deps-and-recommends, needed by

    effectively skipped which is better than failing them.
