lintian 2.5.62 source package in Ubuntu
Changelog
lintian (2.5.62) unstable; urgency=medium * Summary of tag changes: + Added: - invalid-potfiles-in * checks/changelog-file.pm: + [CL] Correct operator precedence in "epoch-change-without-comment" to prevent a false positive when an epoch is present but is unchanged between versions. + [CL] Improve output of epoch-change-without-comment to include the actual version change. * checks/python.desc: + [CL] Also match, for example, "python2.7:any" when checking the "dependency-on-python-version-marked-for-end-of-life" tag, not just "python2.7". (Closes: #883053) + [CL] Detect an invalid debian/po/POTFILES.in instead of bailing out. (Closes: #883653) * checks/scripts.desc: + [AB] command-with-path-in-maintainer-script: Add more references, especially the reason why "if [ -x /usr/bin/<command> ]; …" is indeed bad (#769845 and the mail referred to in there). Rewrite recommendations, explain what conditions should be given if someone intents to override this tag. (Closes: #807695) * checks/source-copyright.pm: + [CL] Correct false positives in the "source-includes-file-in-files-excluded" tag where a Files-Excluded of "lib/*" would be triggered for "foolib/filename". + [CL] Correct another false positive in the "source-includes-file-in-files-excluded" tag where we would warn when the maintainer has removed upstream's debian/ directory and then we would trigger it on the maintainer's replacement files. + [CL] List all files violating source-includes-file-in-files-excluded, not just the first one we encounter per "Files-Excluded" entry. + [CL] Ignore .pc dirs for source-includes-file-in-files-excluded, * data/spelling/corrections: + [AB] Remove "publically". It's a seldom, but valid English word (c.f. https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/publically) and causes false positives in the OpenSSL license. * t/scripts/spellintian.t: + [AB] Ensure that "publically" is not re-added as spelling correction in the future again to avoid hundreds of false positives in the OpenSSL license. -- Chris Lamb <email address hidden> Thu, 07 Dec 2017 16:28:15 +0000

- lintian: Debian package checker
Lintian dissects Debian packages and reports bugs and policy
violations. It contains automated checks for many aspects of Debian
policy as well as some checks for common errors.
.
It uses an archive directory, called laboratory, in which it stores
information about the packages it examines. It can keep this
information between multiple invocations in order to avoid repeating
expensive data-collection operations. This makes it possible to check the
complete Debian archive for bugs, in a reasonable time.
.
This package is useful for all people who want to check Debian
packages for compliance with Debian policy. Every Debian maintainer
should check packages with this tool before uploading them to the
archive.
.
This version of Lintian is calibrated for policy version 4.1.4.
