* checks/*:
+ [NT] Remove some old tags that are no longer useful.
(Closes: #663516)
+ [NT] Migrate to sorted_index from sorted_file_info.
+ [NT] Explicitly import needed subs from L::Util.
* checks/apache2{,.desc}:
+ [NT] New files to check for apache2 related packages. Thanks
to Arno Töll and Stefan Fritsch for the patches.
(Closes: #668546)
+ [NT] This check is not enabled by default. It can be used
via the debian/extra-apache2 profile.
* checks/binaries{,.desc}:
+ [NT] Move embedded library data to a data file.
+ [NT] Add ELF hardening checks. Thanks to Kees Cook for
report and the patches. (Closes: 650536)
+ [NT] Replace architecture tables with data files.
+ [JW] Check for missing Python3 numpy ABI dependency.
(Closes: #671024)
* checks/changelog-file:
+ [NT] Output the correct line number for the "line-too-long"
tag. Thanks to Arno Töll for the report. (Closes: #657402)
* checks/changes-file{,.desc}:
+ [NT] Remove Ubuntu specific handling of distribution names.
Instead replace it with a more generalized one that derivatives
can reuse by extending vendor specific data files. Thanks to
Daniel Dehennin for the suggestion. (Closes: #648777)
* checks/control-file:
+ [NT] Rewrote parts to use Lintian::Collect for fetching data.
* checks/cruft{,.desc}:
+ [NT] Check for quilt control dirs in the debian packaging files.
* checks/deb-format{,.desc}:
+ [NT] Replace old udeb compression tag with a more general
one. (Closes: #664600)
+ [NT] Remove logic for checking if a deb is meant for
Ubuntu. Instead unconditionally emit the tag and let the
vendor profiles handle it.
* checks/debconf:
+ [NT] Special case debconf providers for purge-debconf tag.
Generally they cannot use db_purge in postrm (for obvious
reasons), so the tag will be a false-positive in such
cases.
* checks/fields{,.desc}:
+ [NT] Add devref reference.
+ [NT] Remove special handling of the Ubuntu specific field,
"original-maintainer". This field is now handled by vendor
specific data files. (Closes: #649852)
+ [JW,NT] Check for common mistakes with preview release and
release candidate versions. For non-native packages, this
check is only done on initial uploads of new upstream
releases. Thanks to Stefano Rivera and Julian Taylor for
their additional suggestions. (Closes: #649277)
* checks/filename-length.desc:
+ [ADB, NT] Reword description of package-has-long-file-name.
Thanks to Andreas Beckmann for suggestion.
* checks/files{,.desc}:
+ [NT] Remove "manual" lazy loads of data files.
+ [NT] Remove code for the uses-FHS-doc-dir tag.
+ [NT] Extend icon checks to all icon directories and look for
raster images in "scalable" icon directories. Thanks to
Paul Wise for the report and Felix Geyer for the patches.
(Closes: #628189)
* checks/group-checks:
+ [NT] Include Provides when checking for conflict relations.
Thanks to Damyan Ivanov for the report. (Closes: #672615)
* checks/java:
+ [NT] Ignore "codeless" jars if they appear to be maven
javadoc jars. Thanks to Ludovic Claude for the patch.
(Closes: #660845)
* checks/lintian.desc:
+ [NT] Updated the description of the override tags.
* checks/manpages{,.desc}:
+ [RA] Detect hyphen used as minus sign following a groff \f[C] font
change. Thanks, Iustin Pop. (Closes: #664471)
* checks/menu-format:
+ [NT] Move menu section lists into a data file.
+ [NT] If a package is missing a menu icon, check its direct strong
dependencies built from the same source (if any) for the icon.
This fixes false-positives menu-icon-missing in some cases.
* checks/menus{,.desc}:
+ [NT] Remove "manual" lazy load of data file.
* checks/nmu:
+ [NT] Remove Ubuntu specific code to handle their (lack of) NMUs.
These tags are instead suppressed by the Ubuntu profile.
* chekcs/rules:
+ [NT] Fix false-positive "ignores-make-clean-error" tag caused by
using make with -C and a dir containing the letter "i". Thanks to
Tobias Hansen for the report. (Closes: #671537)
* checks/scripts{,.desc}:
+ [NT] Mention devref 6.4 in command-with-path-in-maintainer-script.
Thanks to Arno Töll for the patch.
+ [NT] Do not emit unusual-interpreter if the package provides the
interpreter itself.
+ [NT] Ignore the lack of exec bit on th debconf shell modules.
* checks/standards-version.desc:
+ [NT] Add references to the Policy upgrading checklist. Thanks to
Simon Paillard for the patch.
.

bin-pkg-control.

+ [NT] Remove code to look for old-style copyright file.
* collection/file-info{,.desc}:
+ [NT] Compress file-info output and bump version of file-info.
* collection/hardening-info{,.desc}:
+ [NT] New files. Thanks to Kees Cook for the patch.
* collection/index{,.desc}:
+ [NT] Compress index output and bump version of index.
* collection/java-info{,.desc}:
+ [NT] Compress java-info output and bump version of java-info.
* collection/objdump-info:
+ [NT] Use "fail" from Lintian::Util.pm rather than embedding a
copy of it.
+ [NT] Use Lintian::Collect to find ELF files.
+ [NT] Replace all usage of objdump with readelf.

* collection/strings{,.desc}:

+ [NT] Remove an extra level of quoting in index.
+ [NT] Remove root dir from sorted_index.
+ [NT] Keep trailing slash in dir names for file_info.

an identical list.
* lib/Lintian/Data.pm:
+ [NT] Lazily load data files.
