* checks/*:
+ [NT] Dropped fields from Needs-Info, it is no longer needed.
+ [JW] Use LC_ALL rather than LANG, since LC_ALL overrules
LANG. (Closes: #637595)
+ [JW] Removed all whitespace lines to avoid confusing some
dctrl parsers (notably grep-dctrl). (Closes: #639928)
+ [JW] Fix a number of broken references in the tag
descriptions. (Closes: #639923)
+ [JW] Rewrote Debian Bug references using #nnnnnn notation.
* checks/binaries.desc:
+ [NT] Remove the reference to the Library Packaging Guide,
since it is no longer available (in Debian). (Closes: #640228)
* checks/changelog-file{,.desc}:
+ [JW] Remove debmake-specific tag in favour of more general
debian-changelog-file-contains-invalid-email-address.
(Closes: #639946)
+ [JW,NT] Fixed use of uninitialized value as hash key.
(Closes: #640238)
+ [NT] Mention that the missing native changelog tag can, in
some cases, be emitted if it does not look like a Debian
changelog.
* checks/{conffile,etcfiles}{,.desc}:
+ [JW] Merged etcfiles into conffile. (Closes: #637590)
* checks/conffile:
+ [NT] Skip all checks if "conffiles" is a symlink.

regular files or directories.

+ [JW] Check for CRLF line endings in copyright files.
(Closes: #634191)
+ [JW] Extended helper-templates-in-copyright and ensure it is
only emitted once per package.
* checks/debhelper{,.desc}:
+ [NT] Recognise /usr/share/R/debian/r-cran.mk as a cdbs-based
build. This prevents false-positive "unneeded cdbs" warning.

* checks/debian-readme{,.desc}:

readme-debian-contains-invalid-email-address.

+ [JW] Added references to some tags. (Closes: #640853)

+ [NT] Replace the exception for "__init__.py" files by excluding

an exception for "empty __init__.py" files and generally empty
files are unlikely to cause a serious size-waste.

+ [NT] Mention that perl modules included in perl itself should
be the first dependency if it is only included in the perl

be using a known protocol (for homepages). (Closes: #580427)
+ [JW] Bumped the severity of "no-human-maintainers", since it is
now a Policy "must" directive. (Closes: #640856)
+ [JW,NT] If superfluous-clutter-in-homepage has been emitted,
ignore the surrounding "<>" for the rest of the homepage checks.
(Closes: #640947)

tag description. (Closes: #624434)
* checks/{filename-length,rules}.desc:
+ [NT] Improved the descriptions of some tags. (Closes: #639018)
* checks/files{,.desc}:

a missing pre-depends on multiarch-support. Thanks to Sven
Joachim for the report. (Closes: #639735)

on libperl4-core-libs-perl. Thanks to Dominic Hargreaves for the
initial patch.

find the list of valid doc-base sections. (Closes: #584280)

it is more accurate than diffstat for this. (Closes: #640131)

+ [NT] Do a simple and minimal variable tracking. In very simple
cases, it can determine which targets a variable contains (when
the variable is used as a target). (Closes: #638411)

file" error. Thanks to Michael Gilbert for the report and
the patch. (Closes: #639430)

the last of them to appear rather than "both at the same time".
(Closes: #640366)

the config file. Only one of "verbose" and "quiet" may

.
* frontend/lintian:
+ [NT] Lintian now mentions if overrides may have been ignored.
This happens if a package contains an override for a tag
that has been marked "non-overridable" by the current vendor
profile.
+ [NT] Mention ".changes" as a valid file type in the "unknown
file" error. Thanks to Michael Gilbert for the report and
the patch. (Closes: #639430)
+ [NT] Always display a given tag if requested with --tags
or --tags-from-file. Previously, pedantic and experimental
tags were not shown unless the relevant options were also
passed.
+ [JW,NT] Fixed a regression where --check-part ignored display
settings (such as --display-info). (Closes: #640694)
+ [NT] If both --verbose and --quiet is used together, then use
the last of them to appear rather than "both at the same time".
(Closes: #640366)
+ [NT] Accept --quiet in lintianrc as "quiet". This option may
not be used together with "verbose" in the config file.
.
* lib/Lintian/Check.pm:
+ [NT] Catch "Name <Name <Email>>" as a malformed email address.
(Closes: #640489)
+ [JW] Catch misspellings of the "Debian QA Group" maintainer
email (used for orphaned packages). (Closes: #640834)
* lib/Lintian/Collect.pm:
+ [JW,NT] Create the source field from the package field if the
former is not present. This fixes a number of false-positves
introduced in 2.5.2. (Closes: #640186)
* lib/Lintian/Collect/Source.pm:
+ [NT] Removed a requirement for fields that was not needed.
+ [NT] Fixed "index" method for source packages.
* lib/Lintian/Collect/Package.pm:
+ [JW,NT] Replace use of fail with croak. (Closes: #637741)
* lib/Lintian/Output.pm:
+ [NT] Merged "quiet" and "verbose" into "verbosity_level".
* lib/Lintian/Profile.pm:
+ [NT] Reject profiles containing an unknown field.
* lib/Lintian/Tag/Info.pm:
+ [JW] Create links for references pointing to files in html
output.
+ [JW] Parse "#nnnnnn" references as links to Debian bugs.
* lib/Lintian/Tag/Override.pm:
+ [NT] New file.
* lib/Lintian/Tags.pm:
+ [NT] Track which tags had overrides that have been dropped.
+ [NT,RG] Collect override comments and print the comments
above the overridden tag (with --show-overrides). Thanks
to Carl Fürstenberg for the report. (Closes: #474590)
+ [NT] Remove the "respect-display-level" code. It is not as
useful as intended.
* lib/Text_utils.pm:
+ [NT] Close <p>-tags in dtml_to_html since the output is used
in xhtml (xml), where all tags must be closed properly.
(Closes: #639292)
+ [NT] Remove the last new line (if any) before a </pre> in tag
to reduce the empty space to the next paragraph.
* lib/Util.pm:
+ [JW] Use LC_ALL rather than LANG, since LC_ALL overrules
LANG.
+ [JW] Stricten the DCtrl parser to choke on some syntax errors
that were silently ignored. (Closes: #639516)
.
* man/lintian.pod.in:
+ [JW] Fixed some stray POD markup. (Closes: #640705)
+ [JW,NT] Clarified that --tags and --tags-from-file ignores
display settings.
+ [NT] Documented how lintian behaves if --quiet is used together
with --verbose or --debug.
+ [NT] Documented how --verbose and --quiet can be enabled via
the config file. Only one of "verbose" and "quiet" may
appear in the config file.
.
* profiles/debian/ftp-master-auto-reject.profile:
+ [NT] Refreshed to include udeb-uses-non-gzip-data-tarball.
.
* private/*:
+ [JW] Use LC_ALL rather than LANG, since LC_ALL overrules
LANG.
* private/refresh-manual-refs:
+ [NT] Remove code to refresh refs to the Library Packaging
Guide.
+ [JW] Added the java-policy and fixed the lintian ref.
+ [JW] Don't strip newlines from titles, but treat them as regular
whitespace characters.
+ [JW] Strip some superfluous HTML markup from titles.
.
* reporting/{config,html_reports,templates/foot.tmpl}:
+ [NT] Added a link to the Lintian source code.
* reporting/harness:
+ [NT] Added missing import statement.
* reporting/html_reports:
+ [JW,NT] Create a gzip'ed version of the raw lintian.log.
(Closes: #637819)
* reporting/templates/head.tmpl:
+ [NT] Show the list of all tags in the page header. Thanks to
Arno Töll for the suggestion and the patch. (Closes: #640962)
* reporting/templates/index.tmpl:
+ [NT] Added link to the new gzip'ed lintian.log.
.
* t/*:
+ [JW,NT] Fixed test failures caused by unpacking the source
with a umask different from 0022. (Closes: #637649)
