[SRU] Backport 2.33-1 to precise

[Daniel Holbach]

The updates from 2.32-2 to 2.33-1 are important for app developers, as they are still targetting precise and will do so for a longer while. Therefore it will be interesting to backport 2.33-1 to precise.

The following changes are going into this update:
    - auto.py: Fix crash when encountering binary files with Python 3.
      (LP: #995653)
    - auto.py: Fix crash when encountering an UTF-8 Python source code file.
    - debian/local/python-mkdebian cleanups: (LP: #706051)
      - Don't use {XS, XB}-Python-Version.
      - Generate an up to date Standards-Version.
      - Generate build dep on debhelper (>= 8) as debian/compat is set to '8'
        and debhelper overrides are used.
      - No need to generate a build dep on cdbs.
    - debian/local/python-mkdebian: For projects using --prefix, install
      binaries into a .../bin/ subdirectory instead of into the main project
      directory. This avoids potential name collisions with local Python
      modules. Thanks to Michael Terry for the patch!
    - debian/local/python-mkdebian: Create copyright format 1.0 compatible
      copyright files. Thanks Andrew Starr-Bochicchio! (LP: #1002379)
    - debian/copyright: Update to copyright 1.0 format.
    - debian/control: Bump Standards-Version to 3.9.3.
    - python-mkdebian: Fix wrong kde4 ui file detection regular expression.
      Thanks Angelo Compagnucci! (LP: #1002076)

This will give us many more cleaner apps in Ubuntu.

TEST-CASE:
----------

Test-case:
  cd /tmp
  quickly create ubuntu-application test-project
  cd test-project/
  quickly package

Observe in:
 - debian/control: no {XS, XB}-Python-Version, Standards-Version: 3.9.3, debhelper (>= 8), no cdbs build-depends. (LP: #706051)
 - debian/compat: is 8 (LP: #706051)
 - debian/copyright: http://www.debian.org/doc/packaging-manuals/copyright-format/1.0/ is used (LP: #1002379)

Now:
  echo '<widget class="Q' > test.ui
  bzr add test.ui
  quickly package

Observe in debian/control: no build-dep on python-kde4-dev (LP: #1002076), if you change the 'Q' to 'K' in test.ui and re-run 'quickly package', it will get added as a build depends.

Now:
  wget http://people.canonical.com/~dholbach/tmp/es.py
  bzr add es.py
  quickly package

Note: no crash. (LP: #995653)

REGRESSION POTENTIAL:
---------------------

Almost no regression potential. As the changes mostly revolve around descriptive changes in the packaging of apps, there is little which can go wrong.

Suggested update.

2.33-1 is already in quantal.

[Daniel Holbach (dholbach)]

The update will just have a summary of the changes between 2.32-2 and 2.33-1.

[Scott Kitterman (kitterman)]

Do you want a backport or an SRU?

[Daniel Holbach (dholbach)]

An SRU. It'd be good to have this in as many default installations as possible.

[Daniel Holbach (dholbach)]

It should also be in the queue already.
