SUGGESTION ============ This is very helpful in cutting out extraneous files that get included in the .diff.gz. E.g. to ignore files "debian/BUGS_TODO/*" and "debian/RCS/*,v", the options passed would be "-idebian/BUGS_TODO -idebian/RCS".

[ Guillem Jover ] * Add back $dpkglib into @INC, needed by the controllib.pl require in 822-date. Closes: #440962 * Document in dpkg-scanpackages that apt now requires Packages.bz2 in preference to Packages.gz. Closes: #440973 * Stop recognizing the obsolete Optional field when building packages. * Use fakeroot, if present, by default to gain root privileges in dpkg-buildpackage. * Fix typos in dpkg-deb.1 and start-stop-daemon.8. Closes: #441051 Thanks to A. Costa. * After '<prerm> remove' fails and while doing the error unwinding, if the '<postinst> abort-remove' call succeeds, preserve the old status instead of unconditionally setting it to 'Installed'. Closes: #432893 Thanks to Brian M. Carlson. * Add Vcs-Browser and Vcs-Git fields to debian/control. * Add a Homepage field to debian/control (to be changed later when there's a more formal site). * Allow comparing unsupported architectures for equality and identity. Based on a patch by Frank Lichtenheld. Closes: #427210 * Document Origin and Bugs fields in deb-control.5. Closes: #173463 * Do not replace substvars for build dependencies (it was not supported anyway). . [ Frank Lichtenheld ] * Add _MTN to dpkg-source -i default regex. Suggested by Jari Aalto. * Convert dpkg-buildpackage to a Perl script. Fix some bugs in the new script detected in experimental: Closes: #444362 * dpkg-buildpackage accepts a -j<n> option now which will set MAKEFLAGS(-j<n>) and DEB_BUILD_OPTIONS(parallel=<n>) accordingly. parallel=<n> in DEB_BUILD_OPTIONS will be passed to MAKEFLAGS as well. Based on an idea by Robert Millan. Closes: #440636 * Allow dpkg-source -I without a pattern which will load a default list of pattern similar to -i without regexp. Patch by Jari Aalto. Closes: #440972 * Rework documentation of dpkg-source's -i and -I options. Closes: #323911, #440956 * Add --utf8-strings to gpg call in dpkg-buildpackage since that seems to be the better default. Suggested by Székelyi Szabolcs. Closes: #379418 * Let dpkg-buildpackage error out early if the version number from the changelog is not a valid Debian version. Closes: #216075 * Fix dpkg-source to create correct diffs for files with spaces in their name (apparantly we don't have many of those ;). Based on a patch by Marcel Toele. Closes: #445380 . [ Updated dpkg translations ] * Basque (Piarres Beobide). Closes: #440859 * Danish (Claus Hindsgaul). Closes: #441106 * French (Frédéric Bothamy). * German (Sven Joachim).
