  * Summary of tag changes:
    + Added:
      - changelog-distribution-does-not-match-changes-file
      - package-builds-dbg-and-dbgsym-variants

  * checks/changes-file.{desc,pm}:
    + [CL] Check for packages that build both foo-dbg and foo-dbgsym debug
      symbol variants.  (Closes: #907423)
  * checks/changelog-file.{desc,pm}:
    + [CL] Check that .changes and debian/changelog distribution are
      identical.  (Closes: #906610)
  * checks/control-files.desc:
    + [CL] Clarify that checks/control-files.* relates to the "control"
      tarball, not debian/control in the source tarball.
  * checks/fields.desc:
    + [CL] Clarify that the target of the dbg-package-missing-depends check
      cannot be "Architecture: all".
  * checks/files.pm:
    + [CL] Don't emit package-contains-documentation-outside-usr-share-doc
      for files in "templates" directories.  (Closes: #907734)
    + [CL] Apply a patch from Josh Triplett and Ximin Luo to ignore
      false-positive "ancient" files generated by Rust.
  * checks/init.d.pm:
    + [CL] Avoid false positives in init.d-script-possible-missing-stop
      when checking initscripts in "early boot" packages such as udev, etc.
      (Closes: #908185)
  * checks/scripts.desc:
    + [CL] Apply a patch from Adrian Bunk to improve the long description
      of the multi-arch-same-package-calls-pycompile tag.
    + [CL] Update the long description of wrong-path-for-interpreter to
      reflect the weakening of the /usr/bin/perl "should" requirement
      and to use "particular" over "special exception".  Thanks to David
      Bremner.

  * data/changelog-file/invalid-dates:
    + [CL] Merge patch from Josh Triplett to display the correct "short"
      three-letter dates for June and July.

  * lib/Lintian/Data.pm:
    + [CL] Apply a patch series from Josh Triplett to add a "matches_any"
      utility function to Lintian::Data instances and ports a number of
      applicable instances to use it.  Thanks!
