** Description changed: + [ Impact ] + the lintian package includes hard-coded information about Ubuntu distribution releases in /usr/share/lintian/data/changelog-file/ubuntu- dists and possibly other places . This volatile information should be carved out to and maintained in the distro-info package instead. - bug 1303603 - bug 1243384 - bug 1268123 - bug 1507350 + bug #1303603 + bug #1243384 + bug #1268123 + bug #1507350 + + After each new Ubuntu release codename is announced, lintian was updated + (see bug #2084708 for the last one). + + [ Test Plan ] + + The test plan is tricky, because nothing should change with this update + until the codename for stonking+1 is announced. Tests that can be done: + + * check autopkgtest result + * run lintian on any package build for resolute (and the same for stonking) + + [ Where problems could occur ] + + lintian is used as linter for people doing packaging. I expect users to + call lintian directly or lintian being used in CI systems. lintian could + start to crash making it unusable and therefore breaking the CI systems.
