dpkg (1.15.8.2ubuntu1) maverick; urgency=low
* Resynchronise with Debian. Remaining changes:
- Adjust versioned emacs22 conflicts to cope with versions in Ubuntu.
- cputable: Set cpu to i686 for arch i386.
dpkg (1.15.8.2) unstable; urgency=low
* Bump libdpkg-perl Depends on dpkg to 1.15.8, as it will break dpkg
versions before that when installing and removing libdpkg-perl,
because older update-alternatives and dpkg-divert require Dpkg.pm and
Dpkg/Gettext.pm which will disappear due to the Replaces. Closes: #590867
Thanks to Sven Joachim <svenjoac at gmx.de> for the analysis.
* Allow specifying again absolute and relative paths for dpkg-buildpackage
-r option. Closes: #591010
dpkg (1.15.8.1) unstable; urgency=low
* Fix off-by-one error in update-alternatives that lead to an infinite loop
while writing the administrative file. Closes: #590854
dpkg (1.15.8) unstable; urgency=low
[ Raphaël Hertzog ]
* Add new commands --before-build and --after-build to dpkg-source
and modify dpkg-buildpackage to call them automatically at the
start and at the end of the process. With "3.0 (quilt)" source packages
this ensures patches are applied even in case of binary-only builds.
Closes: #572526
* Merge non-regression test for Ubuntu's specificities concerning
changelog handling. Closes: #582389
* Fix some copy-paste mistakes in dpkg-architecture(1). Thanks to Ian Fleming
<iflema at yahoo.com.au> for the patch and Colin Watson for forwarding out of
Launchpad. Closes: #582404 LP: #564308
* Clarify description of dpkg --configure in dpkg(1). Thanks to Colin Watson
for the patch and to Robert Persson for the report.
Closes: #582406 LP: #77287
* Fix the non-regression test lib/dpkg/test/t-ar.c by not overflowing the
size of ar_name. Thanks to Colin Watson for the report, analysis and patch.
Closes: #582401
* Modify Dpkg::Shlibs::Objdump to use the cross objdump binary when cross
compiling. Thanks to Loïc Minier for the initial patch. Closes: #578365
* Make dpkg-maintscript-helper more robust when required parameters are
missing. Closes: #582814
* Clarify that dpkg-maintscript-helper rm_conffile needs the last version of
the package that did not remove the obsolete conffile if this was not
implemented at the time the file became obsolete. Closes: #582893
* Enhance dpkg-maintscript-helper rm_conffile and mv_conffile to work
properly when <lastversion> is not given (or is empty). Closes: #582819
* Small fix in dpkg-gensymbols' handling of tags. Closes: #583656
Thanks to Michael Tautschnig <mt at debian.org> for the report and the fix.
* update-alternatives has been rewritten in C, the only feature change
should be that it uses its own logfile /var/log/alternatives.log (rotated
like dpkg.log).
* Implement new --unapply-patches option for dpkg-source with source formats
2.0 and 3.0 (quilt) that unapplies the patches after a successful build.
This option can be put in debian/source/local-options in the package VCS
repository for instance.
* Implement new --abort-on-upstream-changes option for dpkg-source with
source formats 1.0, 2.0 and 3.0 (quilt). It aborts every time that you try
to build a source package which contains (unmanaged) changes to the
upstream source code. Closes: #579012
* dpkg-source now captures the output of patch and prints it on error so
that the user can better diagnose what went wrong. Closes: #575304
* Fix Dpkg::Changelog to cope properly with an entry of version "0".
Add non-regression test for this. Closes: #587382
* Add --export command to dpkg-buildflags to be used in shell with eval.
* Modify source format "3.0 (git)" to use git bundles. Thanks to Joey Hess
for the patch.
The usage of git bundle avoids distributing cruft. Closes: #477954
It's no longer needed to tell which branch contains the debian packaging,
it uses automatically the one that was used at build-time. Closes: #534637
* Pass --no-name option to gzip to avoid encoding the timestamp in the file
so that the result is more predictable. Closes: #587724
Also pass --rsyncable to make source packages more rsync friendly.
* Replace dpkg-source's tar ignore pattern "*~" with "*/*~" to avoid
matching on the top level directory. Closes: #588265
* In source formats "2.0" and "3.0 (quilt)", make sure to remove the
upstream-provided debian directory before copying the debian-provided
version of that directory in place. Closes: #590297
[ Guillem Jover ]
* Require gettext 0.18:
- Remove embedded gettext files from the repository, now properly
installed by autopoint for all po/ directories.
- Add versioned Build-Depends.
* Fix variable usage after delete in dselect.
* Change default configure admindir to LOCALSTATEDIR/lib/dpkg from
LOCALSTATEDIR/dpkg, so that we can use a correct --localstatedir=/var.
* Add two new dpkg options --path-exclude and --path-include for filtering
files on package installation. This allows embedded systems to skip
/usr/share/doc, manpages, etc. Based on work from Tollef Fog Heen and
Martin Pitt, thanks! Closes: #68788, #68861, #497304, #525567, #583902
* Remove obsolete internal status aliases “postinst-failed” for
stat_halfconfigured and “removal-failed” for stat_halfinstalled.
* Check version syntax when parsing it from libdpkg based programs.
Closes: #574704
* Rewrite mksplit in C, and merge it into dpkg-split.
* Rewrite dpkg-divert in C.
* Use linux-any wildcard for libselinux1-dev Build-Depends instead of
using a list of negated architectures.
* Use Breaks instead of Conflicts in dpkg, dpkg-dev and libdpkg-perl binary
packages.
* Move Dpkg.pm and Dpkg/Gettext.pm from dpkg to libdpkg-perl.
* Bump Standards-Version to 3.9.1.
* Detect when another process has locked the database, and mention that
problematic dpkg --audit results might be due to ongoing operations.
Closes: #80252
* Add new dpkg --force-confask option that forces a conffile prompt when
the conffile from the new package does not differ from the previous one.
Thanks to Henning Makholm <henning at makholm.net>. Closes: #102609
* On dpkg-divert --rename, check if the source file exists, and disable
renaming if it does not. Closes: #550252
As a side effect, this avoids useless errors when the destination
directory is not existent or writable. Closes: #581544
* Properly compute the longest package description from all to be displayed
on “dpkg-query --list”, so that it does not get incorrectly trimmed.
* Consistently use earlier/later instead of smaller/bigger when describing
comparison relationships. Closes: #587641
* Stop exporting DPKG_LIBDIR to maintainer scripts, no need for it anymore.
* Assign correct SE Linux label on non-regular files. Based on a patch by
Russell Coker <russell at coker.com.au>. Closes: #587949
* Add -F option to dpkg-buildpackage to be able to explicitly specify a
normal full build and combine it with -nc. Closes: #547993
* Add missing mentions of the Breaks field alongside the other fields
sharing the same syntax in deb-control(5).
Thanks to Osamu Aoki <osamu at debian.org>. Closes: #590472
