Package: lintian
Version: 2.2.6
Severity: normal
nsis on amd64 is built for i386 for portability issues. I can do this
because of libc6-i386, which is for running 32-bit apps on a 64-bit
system. Until Debian gets multi-arch support (hopefully for squeeze),
lintian should not warn about i386 binaries in an amd64 package when the
32-bit libraries such as lib32gcc1/libc6-i386/lib32stdc++6 are in the
package dependencies. Hopefully we'll get mult-arch soon and all this
nasty bi-arch stuff will go away.

* checks/binaries{,.desc}:
+ [RA] Check for embedded copies of zlib in ELF binaries by looking
for the inflate and deflate copyright strings. Patch from Raphael
Geissert. (Closes: #318104)
+ [RA] Avoid capturing parentheses in regexes due to their minor
performance penalty. Patch from Raphael Geissert.
+ [RA] Report apparently truncated ELF binaries separately from
apparently corrupted ones. The current binutils now distinguishes.
Patch from Raphael Geissert. (Closes: #517778)
+ [RA] Allow i386 binaries in amd64 packages for right now. Thanks,
Paul Wise. (Closes: #516856)
+ [RA] Suggest, when fixing spelling errors in binaries, that one
unfuzzy gettext translations as well. Thanks, Raphael Geissert.
* checks/changelog-file:
+ [RA] Avoid capturing parentheses in regexes due to their minor
performance penalty. Patch from Raphael Geissert.
+ [RA] Correctly handle changelog.gz files that aren't compressed with
gzip. Patch from Raphael Geissert.

+ [RA] Move all information used only in one check script from here to

* checks/copyright-file{,.desc}:
+ [RA] Avoid capturing parentheses in regexes due to their minor
performance penalty. Patch from Raphael Geissert.
+ [RA] Avoid false positive for versionless license files when the
file is referred to without a hyphen; instead, issue a separate tag
that explains the problem. Based on a patch from Raphael Geissert.
(Closes: #517191)
+ [RA] Allow commas between the GFDL license name and version when
suppressing false positives for the 1.1 version. Thanks, Aurelien
Jarno. (Closes: #516687)
+ [RA] Don't warn about versionless GPL references if the word version
appears nowhere in the copyright file.
* checks/debconf:
+ [ADB] Use Lintian::Relation rather than Dep.
* checks/debhelper{,.desc}:
+ [ADB] Use Lintian::Relation rather than Dep.
+ [RA] Add dh_bugfiles to version requirements, added in 7.2.3.
+ [RA] debhelper compatibility level V4 is now deprecated.
* checks/description{,.desc}:
+ [RA] Remove description-synopsis-has-leading-spaces. Policy
explicitly says this is not a bug. Adjust for the changes to Util
that preserve leading whitespace in continued fields.
* checks/fields:
+ [RA] Precompile constant regexes with qr. Patch from Raphael
Geissert.
+ [RA] Load Lintian::Data objects only once. Patch from Raphael
Geissert. Also use all caps for global variables.

get the list of known architectures. Patch from Raphael Geissert.
* checks/files{,.desc}:
+ [RA] Avoid capturing parentheses in regexes due to their minor
performance penalty. Patch from Raphael Geissert.
+ [RA] Precompile constant regexes with qr and only load the list of
font packages if needed. Patch from Raphael Geissert.
+ [RA] Warn about yui-*.js as well as yahoo-*.js. Patch from Raphael
Geissert.
+ [ADB] Use Lintian::Relation instead of Dep.
+ [RA] magpierss was renamed to libphp-magpierss. Patch from Marcelo

+ [RA] Diagnose files ending in *.gz that aren't compressed with
gzip. Patch from Raphael Geissert. (Closes: #518873)
+ [RA] Simplify some checks now that we're guaranteed leading and
trailing whitespace will be stripped from field values.
* checks/manpages:
+ [CW] Run man with '-E UTF-8' to avoid producing bogus warnings on
localised manual pages due to attempting to recode through ASCII.
+ [RA] Set MANWIDTH to 80 in the environment when running man to force
it to assume 80-column lines even when Lintian is run in a smaller
window. Thanks, Joey Hess. (Closes: #517629)
+ [ADB] Use Lintian::Relation::Version when determining whether the
installed version of man supports the --warnings option.
* checks/menus:
+ [RA] Cache the reference to the section list. Thanks, Raphael
Geissert. Also use all caps for global variables.
+ [RA] Move known doc-base formats from common_data.pm to here. Patch
from Raphael Geissert.

longer required unless menu-methods are installed. Thanks, Eric

registration is done with triggers. (Closes: #518801)
* checks/nmu:
+ [RA] Calculate the regex for Ubuntu distributions only once.
* checks/patch-systems:
+ [ADB] Use Lintian::Relation instead of Dep.

+ [RA] Diagnose various problems with creating and removing
diversions. Based on a patch by Jörg Sommer. (Closes: #516221)
* checks/shared-libs{,.desc}:
+ [ADB] When parsing symbols files, correctly ensure that meta-information
occurs between the end of the dependency template(s) and the start of
the symbol list. The code that was intended to check this resulted
in a false positive syntax error being generated if a file with
alternative dependency templates used meta-information.
+ [ADB] Extend the parsing of dependency templates in symbols files to
handle ORed dependencies.
+ [ADB] Use Lintian::Relation rather than Dep.
+ [ADB] Avoid capturing parentheses in regexes due to their minor
performance penalty.
+ [RA] Check the libdir path in libtool *.la files and ensure that it
matches the installed location of the *.la file. Based on a patch
by Raphael Geissert. (Closes: #302196)

+ [RA] Replace the runtime-generated list of known architectures with
this data file, built from the current dpkg files. Patch from
Raphael Geissert.
.

+ [RA] Document new Version field for collect scripts and remove
Output field. Document pedantic severity for tags. Document
Sequence, Options, and Skeleton for test suite descriptions.
Thanks, Raphael Geissert.
* doc/lintian.sgml:
+ [RA] Document pendantic tags. Patch from Raphael Geissert.
.
* frontend/lintian:
+ [RA] Stop loading FileHandle. We no longer use it.
+ [RA] Run all the collect scripts within a given order in parallel.
Patch from Raphael Geissert.
+ [RA] Create marker files in the laboratory for each collect script
that has successfully including its current version number. Use
these marker files rather than the existence of output files to
determine when to run collect scripts. Re-run collect scripts if
the current version doesn't match what's in the lab. Patch from
Raphael Geissert. (Closes: #517650)
+ [RA] Add oldstable to the known distributions for *.changes files.
.
* lib/Lintian/Collect/Binary.pm:

+ [RA] Optimize the spell-checking algorithm. Patch from Raphael
Geissert. (Closes: #514495)
* lib/Util.pm:
+ [RA] Fully comply with Policy in whitespace handling when parsing
Debian control files. Multiline fields will now have the leading
whitespace of subsequent lines left in, and leading tabs are no
longer handled specially. Trailing whitespace is now uniformly
stripped, as is leading whitespace on the first field line.
.
* man/lintian.1:
+ [RA] Document strings collect script.
.
* private/refresh-archs:
+ [RA] Script from Raphael Geissert to refresh known architectures.
.
* unpack/unpack-binpkg-l1:
+ [RA] Run the separate commands involved in unpacking a binary
package in parallel where possible. Patch from Raphael Geissert.
* unpack/unpack-srcpkg-l1:
+ [RA] When processing tar output, we may not get complete lines at a
time. Save partial lines and glue them back together again when we
get the next burst of data. (Closes: #517899)
+ [RA] Do a little bit of parallelization when writing out the sorted
index of the source package.
+ [RA] Ignore leading whitespace in the Files section.
