Re-run po4a-gettextize
Correct accented letters problems in German man pages
Remove accidental English "translations" in some PO files
Thanks to Nicolas François for the patch
Make dpkg-source -b more robust
regarding to existing symlinks by creating all files
in secure temporary files and renaming them afterwards.
This fixes problems with packages retrieved with
apt-get source from local repositories. Closes: #178839, #338591
* man/C/dpkg-source.1: Document that the -sX switches for
dpkg-source are mutually exclusive and only one can be in
effect.
* scripts/dpkg-source.pl: Warn if more than one -sX switch
is specified on the command line. Closes: #246637
* man/C/dpkg-scanpackages.1: Document new dpkg-scanpackages
-m option.
* scripts/dpkg-scanpackages.pl: Rewrite the script to support
multiple versions of packages in a single Packages file;
use Getopt::Long instead of attempting to parse the command line
ourselves and doing it badly;
get rid of unecessary hashes and arrays that aren't used at all;
output help when given the --help/-h/-? options Closes: #229589, #319541
Let dpkg-buildpackage create a .changes file even if signing the
.dsc file failed. This makes it easier to just sign the package
later (Julian Gilbey). Closes: #217963

Make dpkg-architecture not print the warning about a missmatch between
gcc target machine type and GNU target system type if the actions are
'-e' or '-i'.
* Honor LD_LIBRARY_PATH in dpkg-shlibdeps. Fixes a regression
from 1.13.11 to .12.
* Don't recurse into package directories to search for local
shlibs files since it is obviously a waste of time. Based
on a suggestion by Steve Langasek. Closes: #338725

Change start-stop-daemon's --exec option behaviour on GNU/Linux to
compare the filename pointed by '/proc/<pid>/exe' instead of the inode
and device numbers. Thanks to Vasilis Vasaitis <v.vasaitis@sms.ed.ac.uk>. Closes: #337942
Change version number to 1.13.12 and target suite to experimental.
Also add a warning to the changelog about the experimental nature
of some of the changes.
dpkg-source: Don't use \b to match the end
of the version in filenames, use (?=[.-]) and (?=\.) instead.
\b doesn't work in case the version ends with ~.
Don't use the ldd output in dpkg-shlibdeps. Search for the
matching libraries ourself. This fixes problems with both
symlinked directories Closes: #103024, #145714, #164020, #285857

Add support for architecture wildcards, but for now they will only be
exposed in debian/control files, not in binary nor source packages. Closes: #291939

When linking statically, explicitly add libsepol, even if its only a
transitive library. The proper fix should come with a pkg-config file.
Based on a patch by Bart Martens <bart.martens@advalvas.be>.
Add support "package types" to dpkg-shlibdeps. Patch by
Joey Hess. Closes: #345475
* scripts/dpkg-shlibdeps: Add possibility to
specify a package type in the shlibs file
and add a -t switch to dpkg-shlibdeps to
specify the wanted type. Entries without
package type will have type 'deb' and will
serve as fallback if no entry with the
correct type is found
* man/C/dpkg-source.1: Document new -t
switch for dpkg-shlibdeps
Check for illegal architecture strings in dpkg-gencontrol and
dpkg-source. dpkg-gencontrol will only issue a warning while
dpkg-source will error out. Closes: #96920
Let dpkg-source ensure (as good as possible) that all
build source packages can also be unpacked. Closes: #6820, #7014
* scripts/controllib.pl:
(checkversion) add generic check for valid version numbers
(checkpackagename) add generic check for valid package
names
(readmd5sum) add generic function to extract md5sum from
md5sum program output
(setsourcepackage) call checkpackagename on new value
* scripts/dpkg-source.pl: Use the new checks added to
controllib to ensure validity of version and packagename
on build, too. Previously this was only done on
unpack.
Test on build if directories added by diff already exist with
other type in the original source since we already tested that
on unpack.
(addfile): Test if files are added
twice. Should not happen but as we error out on unpack
better make sure it doesn't.
Check the gpg signatures of .dsc files before unpacking. See
the upstream changelog for a full description of the semantics.
Based on a patch by Matt Zimmerman. Closes: #48711
dpkg-source -x now tries to chown all files extracted from
tar files. The temporary directory is now created with mode
0700, too. Together this should make it safer to run
dpkg-source -x as root. Based on suggestions by Marcus
Brinkmann and Colin Watson. Closes: #144571, #238460

* Only open the log file when we first need to write to it, this avoids
the need to suppress errors when not root which fakeroot defeated anyway.
* Stop dpkg-source clobbering an existing .orig directory during unpacking. Closes: #21236.
* Allow an alternate output directory to be specified to dpkg-source by
giving a second argument to -x. Closes: #246802, #282323.

* Multiple pristine upstream tarballs allowed.
* Native and upstream tarballs may be bzip2-compressed instead of gzip,
as may the debian diff or tarball.

- dpkg-architecture output includes new DEB_*_ARCH_OS and
DEB_*_ARCH_CPU variables that contain the Debian system and CPU
names respectively.
- dpkg-architecture outputs (mostly) correct GNU system names now,
