Changes:
dpkg (1.14.18ubuntu1) intrepid; urgency=low
.
* Resynchronise with Debian. Remaining changes:
Ubuntu-specific adjustments (probably):
- Use i686 for lpia in cputable and triplettable.
- Hack Dpkg::Arch to return i686 for lpia.
- Pre-depend on lzma.
- Move various Conflicts to Breaks, since upgrades from stable Ubuntu
releases support Breaks.
- Rename triggers/Deferred to triggers/Unincorp to fix upgrades from
early versions of trigger support in Ubuntu.
.
Miscellaneous bug fixes:
- Avoid closing fsys tarfile pipe twice even in normal operation -
normally EBADF but might sometimes close some other desired fd and
cause hideous doom.
- Avoid duplicate attempts to [f]close in obscure error situations which
might conceiveably close wrong fds.
- Add a few more comments around obscure bits of trigger handling code
which confused both me and Ian during the merge.
- Revert change to stop outputting a newline after a postinst is run
(Debian bug #392317).
- Use the two-arg form of open in Dpkg::Control so that "-" can be
passed to parse stdin as a control file.
.
Launchpad integration:
- Implement changelog-closes-bugs for Ubuntu (see
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ClosingBugsFromChangelog).
- Add Launchpad-Bugs-Fixed to dpkg-genchanges too, to make it not
complain about unknown fields.
.
DebianMaintainerField:
- scripts/dpkg-source.pl: Check that debian/control complies with
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebianMaintainerField: If $DEBEMAIL contains
'ubuntu', refuse to build a source package if we have an Ubuntu
version number, but Maintainer: is not an Ubuntu address. Output a
warning if there is no XSBC-Original-Maintainer: field for packages
with an Ubuntu version number.
.
DistCompilerFlags:
- Point to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DistCompilerFlags from
dpkg-buildpackage(1).
- Set default LDFLAGS to -Wl,-Bsymbolic-functions. (We've already taken
this hit in Ubuntu.)
.
dpkg (1.14.18) unstable; urgency=low
.
[ Guillem Jover ]
* Bump po4a version in Build-Depends to 0.33.1-1, as usage of UTF-8
in original man pages was causing build failures. Closes: #473498
* Add triggers documentation to dpkg-dev. Closes: #473449
* Add deb-triggers.5 and dpkg-trigger.1 man pages, and document new
statuses and options in dpkg.1.
.
[ Raphael Hertzog ]
* When dpkg-source builds a source package of Format: 2.0 or 3.0 (quilt) it
applies the patches before the build if
debian/patches/.dpkg-source-applied doesn't exist. This file is created
during extraction if patches are applied, and is auto-excluded from the
debian tarball. This enables on-the-fly conversion of source packages from
Format: 1.0 to Format: 3.0 (quilt) without manual intervention of the
user. This feature can be disabled with the option --no-preparation.
* The dpkg-source option --skip-patches disables application of patches
during extraction of source packages using Format: 2.0 or Format: 3.0
(quilt).
* Ensure the Files field is last in *.dsc and *.changes. This is a
work-around for some braindead dsc parsers (dupload and sbuild for
instance, see #473518 and #470440).
* Initialize dependencies for libraries having symbols files with the
smallest minimal version listed in the symbols file instead of using
an unversioned dependency. It's the only way to ensure the library
presence if it wasn't available in all versions of the package that ever
existed. Closes: #474079
* Don't use the -p option of diff for Format: 1.0 source packages.
dpkg-source of sarge doesn't accept data after @@. Closes: #474417

[ Guillem Jover ]
* Replace strdup plus error checking usage with a new m_strdup function.
Closes: #379028
* Add new keybinding in dselect to restore all selections back to
whatever's currently installed. Closes: #151540
Thanks to Colin Watson.
* Use system timersub and fix timeval normalization in multiplication in
start-stop-daemon. Thanks to Andreas Påhlsson. Closes: #462225
* Cosmetic fixes to start-stop-daemon output and man page. Document that
--chuid will change the group even if it has not been specified. Add
EXIT STATUS and EXAMPLE sections to man page. Thanks to Justin Pryzby.
* Add Raphael Hertzog to Uploaders, and remove Brendan O'Dea and
Christian Perrier with their permission.
* Use functions from libcompat when those are not provided by the system.
- Add strnlen to libcompat.
- Link programs against libcompat which provides obstack. Closes: #142042
* Change dpkg-gencontrol to not output the Homapage field on udeb.
* Reintroduce 'no-debsig' back in dpkg.cfg to avoid failing to install any
package when debsig-verify is installed. Closes: #311843
* Fix some small memory leaks. Closes: #469520
Thanks to Sean Finney.
* Correct broken dselect logic for self-conflicting packages.
Thanks to Ian Jackson.
* Implement 'Breaks' properly in dselect. Closes: #448946
Thanks to Ian Jackson.
* Fix erroneous description of Breaks in dselect output.
Thanks to Ian Jackson.
* Allow compilation with --disable-nls on systems without libintl.h where
a non glibc claims to be glibc. Closes: #465420
* Fix crash when a .deb file becomes unreadable while dpkg is starting.
Thanks to Ian Jackson. Closes: #255882
* Few file descriptor cleanup and error handling fixes.
Thanks to Ian Jackson. Closes: #443338
* Move test suite invokation to a new check target in debian/rules.
* Add support for nocheck DEB_BUILD_OPTIONS in debian/rules, so that the
dpkg test suite can be skept if desired.
* Improve log and status-fd output by printing more status change updates
and actions. Thanks to Ian Jackson.
* Implement triggers support. Thanks to Ian Jackson.

[ Raphael Hertzog ]
* Add a warning displayed by dpkg-genchanges if the current version is
smaller than the previous one. Closes: #4655
* Add -d and -c options in dpkg-checkbuilddeps to override
build-depends/conflicts. Closes: #114774
* Include list of libraries in dpkg-gensymbols' warning about new/lost
libraries.
* Add -R option to dpkg-buildpackage so that one can replace the usual
"debian/rules" by something else. Closes: #355654
* Always list all binary packages in the Description: field of .changes
files. It's nice for reviewers and mentors.debian.net was using this field
on source only uploads to display short description of what the package is
about.
* Handle the case when the library has a different SONAME than the one used
to find it. Closes: #462413
* Fix Dpkg::Version and Dpkg::Fields::Object to import _g() from
Dpkg::Gettext. Thanks to Adam Heath and Olivier Berger for spotting
this. Closes: #465651
* Change PATH during make check to look into build directories containing
dpkg and the related scripts. Thanks to Mike Frysinger. Closes: #466957
* Some lintian cleanup:
- add overrides for some useless I: tags
- drop unused overrides
- updated several manual pages to fix hyphen-used-as-minus-sign
- fixed manpage-has-errors-from-man in several manual pages
- removed empty debian/dpkg.prerm
* Removed old upgrade code from dpkg's preinst and postinst which only
concerns upgrading from dpkg version older than the one in oldstable
already. And thus we get rid of old the last usage of read in those
scripts (fixes lintian's warning read-in-maintainer-script).
* Removed sorting of dependencies in dpkg-gencontrol and dpkg-source. But
kept it for all other fields (Enhances, Conflicts, Replaces, Breaks,
Build-Conflicts and Build-Conflicts-Indep).
* Instead changed dpkg-shlibdeps to sort the dependencies generated in
${shlibs:*} variables.
* Changed the logic of simplification of dependencies: if any dependency
must be discarded due to another dependency appearing further
in the field, the superseding dependency will take the place of the
discarded one. Added a test case for this.
* dpkg-shlibdeps properly accounts usage of symbols provided by private
libraries without SONAME. Closes: #469838
* Add a new warning to dpkg-shlibdeps when a library NEEDED is in fact
not used by any of the binaries analyzed. Closes: #472332
* Add a new --warnings=<value> option to select the set of warnings to
activate. By default, do not activate the warning about useless
libraries at the binary level (instead the new warning above is activated
by default: it's less strict and more useful).
* dpkg-source has been heavily refactored to make it easier to support
multiple source package formats. Several new source package formats have
been added:
- the format "2.0" is the original wig&pen
- the format "3.0 (quilt)" is based on 2.0. It uses a tarball for the
debian directory and can thus include binary files. Binaries
outside of the debian directory can be also included if they
are listed in debian/source/include-binaries (and option
--include-binaries will generate this file automatically).
Closes: #4588, #4628
- thus it will also preserve timestamps on Debian-provided
documentation like README.Debian. Closes: #366555
- it handles an explicit series of patches and the patch can thus be
named without constraints. Patches can contain arbitrary
headers/comments between file chunks. Closes: #363018
- it ignores changes on a number of temporary and VCS-specific files
by default. Closes: #203792, #323909
- the patches in debian/patches can remove files. Closes: #12564
- the patches are applied at unpack time. Closes: #463048
- the formats "3.0 (quilt/native)" don't include VCS directories by
default. Closes: #435126
- the format "3.0 (custom)" can be used to create a source package
containing arbitrary files. It's useful for helper tools that can
generate the files by themselves in a more efficient way
(like all the *-buildpackage tools). Closes: #246918
- the formats "3.0 (git/bzr)" are experimental formats based
on corresponding VCS repositories. Thanks to Joey Hess and Colin Watson
respectively.
* dpkg-source has a new --no-check option. It disables GPG check and
checksums checks. Closes: #220758
* dpkg-shlibdeps is now able to look into directories containing libraries
used by cross-built binaries provided that the right environment variable
are set. Closes: #453267
* Change default value of LDFLAGS (set by dpkg-buildpackage) to ''
instead of '-Wl,-Bsymbolic-functions'. It's safer at this point of the
release cycle.
* dpkg-buildpackage will set PKG_CONFIG_LIBDIR (but not override an existing
value) in case of cross-compilation so that pkgconfig finds .pc files
in the directory specific to the target architecture. Closes: #439979
.
[ Frank Lichtenheld ]
* Add a warning in dpkg-buildpackage if the build-dependencies are not
satisfied during -S. Closes: #445552
* Add a missing space in the German scripts translation. Closes: #463398
* Add improved deb-shlibs.5 manual page by Zack Weinberg. Closes: #466135
* dpkg-buildpackage exports some build related environment variables
now. Based on a patch by Matthias Klose. Closes: #465282
(See dpkg-buildpackage(1) and https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DistCompilerFlags
for details)
* Add support for use of SHA1 and SHA256 checksums in .dsc and
.changes files. Information will be available in Checksums-Sha{1,256}
fields. .changes format version increased to 1.8.
* Link dselect against libncursesw. Closes: #466321
* Forward port a patch from the old changelog parser to the new
one that got lost during the transition. '+' and '.' can now
be used in distribution names yet again. Reported by dann frazier.
Closes: #467470
