* checks/binaries{,.desc}:
+ [RA] Diagnose installing detached debugging symbols directly in
/usr/lib/debug instead of in an appropriate subdirectory. Patch
from Raphael Geissert. (Closes: #532394)
* checks/control-file{,.desc}:
+ [ADB] Allow both comma and pipe as valid separators between items when
detecting whether a separator has been omitted. As a consequence,
rename the missing-comma-between-items tag to the more descriptive
missing-separator-between-items. Based on a patch by Rafael
Laboissiere. (Closes: #533202)
+ [RA] Allow a newline immediately after the field name, since this
does work with fields that can be wrapped (such as Build-Depends).
Thanks, Stephane Glondu. (Closes: #528377)
* checks/debhelper{,.desc}:
+ [RA] Issue package-lacks-versioned-build-depends-on-debhelper always
if the debhelper dependency isn't properly versioned, not just for
compat levels newer than 5. (Closes: #522384)
+ [RA] Warn about dh_desktop calls since the command is now
deprecated. Thanks, Nelson A. de Oliveira. (Closes: #531164)
+ [RA] Include the line number in deprecated and obsolete dh_* command
tags.
+ [ADB] Warn about dh_scrollkeeper calls since the command is now
deprecated.
* checks/fields{,.desc}:
+ [RA] Update source-field-malformed to serious and don't allow
capital letters in source package names. Check source package names
for validity even when checking only source packages to be sure the
package name is syntactically valid.
+ [RA] Permit quilt in Build-Depends for arch-independent packages if
dh_quilt_* programs are called in the clean target. Thanks, Daniel
Moerner. (Closes: #528003)
+ [RA] If one of the gnome-pkg-tools makefile fragments is included,
gnome-pkg-tools is allowed and required in Build-Depends. Thanks,
Emilio Pozuelo Monfort. (Closes: #532892)
* checks/files{,.desc}:
+ [RA] Diagnose files installed into discouraged or unknown
subdirectories of /usr/share/fonts/X11 per Policy 11.8.5.
+ [RA] Diagnose packages including both 100dpi and 75dpi fonts or
mixing misc and Xdpi fonts.
* checks/init.d{,.desc}:
+ [RA] Also check unregistered init scripts for other syntax problems.
Patch from Raphael Geissert.
+ [RA] Don't think required init.d options are implemented just
because they occur in a comment. Patch from Raphael Geissert.
+ [RA] Diagnose init scripts sourcing /etc/default files without
checking first whether they're present. Patch from Raphael
Geissert. (Closes: #533571)
+ [RA] Diagnose init scripts that use interpreters in /usr. Patch
from Raphael Geissert.
* checks/menus{,.desc}:
+ [RA] Read menu-methods files from the collected location instead of
the unpacked binary package and change the unpack level of menus to
1. Patch from Raphael Geissert.
* checks/scripts{,.desc}:
+ [RA] Per Policy 3.8.2, read-in-maintainer-script is now of serious
severity.
+ [RA] Catch obsolete dpkg checks in more contexts.
+ [RA] Check for invocations of fc-cache in maintainer scripts.
Thanks, Josselin Mouette. (Closes: #532984)
+ [RA] Catch more commands with paths in maintainer scripts. Thanks,
Raphael Geissert.
* collection/menu-files{,.desc}:
+ [RA] Collect menu-methods as well as menu files. Refactor to remove
code duplication. Patch from Raphael Geissert.
* data/standards-version/release-dates:
+ [RA] Add the release date for Policy 3.8.2.
