Package: lintian
Version: 1.20.8
Severity: wishlist
Note that as of new sgml-base's, /usr/lib/sgml is deprecated
and /usr/share/sgml is where all SGML related files should go.
It would be nice if lintian emitted a warning for packages
still installing stuff (perhaps disregarding compatability symlinks)
in /usr/lib/sgml.
Likewise, install-sgmlcatalog is deprecated. It's still legit
to use 'install-sgmlcatalog --quiet --remove' to remove the old
deprecated catalog entries, however.
Also note that packages using /usr/share/sgml and the new
update-catalog need a versioned depends on sgml-base 1.0.7 or
better.

Description:
lintian - Debian package checker
Closes: 90019 173583 325372 428403 428681 429528 429840
Changes:
lintian (1.23.32) unstable; urgency=low
.
The "stability of output" release.
.
* checks/binaries:
+ [RA] Sort the package SONAMEs to provide more stable lintian tags.
Patch from Cyril Brulebois. (Closes: #428681)
* checks/files{.desc,}:
+ [RA] Limit the Zope license exception to only .dtml, .pt, and .cpt
files. Thanks, Bernd Zeimetz.
+ [RA] Sort the files listed in package-contains-hardlink so that the
lintian output is stable regardless of the hash order of the
directory when the tar file was built.
+ [RA] Don't incorrectly skip all other file location checks for hard
links.
+ [RA] Check for files installed in /usr/lib/sgml. This transition
was probably completed long ago, but checking for regression can't
hurt. (Closes: #90019)
* checks/manpages{.desc,}:
+ [RA] Check for dh_make man page templates (by looking for the
template whatis entry). Thanks, Bill Allombert. (Closes: #173583)
* checks/menus:
+ [RA] Avoid a quadratic search of the files in the package on
doc-base files that list tons of files individually. This speeds up
a lintian check of openoffice.org-dev-doc enormously.
* checks/po-debconf:
+ [RA] Close the template file handle between files so that the line
numbers for translated default fields are correct.
* checks/rules{.desc,}:
+ [RA] Check for ignoring all errors from make clean or make distclean
and recommend skipping the call if there's no Makefile instead.
Thanks, Branden Robinson. (Closes: #325372)
* checks/scripts{.desc,}:
+ [RA] Add Octave as an interpreter, and allow both versioned and
unversioned forms. Thanks, Sebastian Harl. (Closes: #428403)
+ [RA] Check for deprecated install-sgmlcatalog usage.
* checks/shared_libs:
+ [RA] Report the correct file for shlib-with-nonpic-code rather than
the last shlib in the package. (Closes: #429840, #429528)
.
* frontend/lintian:
+ [RA] Don't require -v in order to report unused overrides; they're
already info-level tags, which is enough hiding.
+ [RA] Remove old dead unused override code.
.
* reporting/html_reports:
+ [RA] Fix a Perl warning when generating the clean maintainer pages.
.
* unpack/unpack-binpkg-l1:
+ [RA] Sort the output of tar tfv by filename so that the lintian
output will be stable regardless of the hash order of the directory
when the tar file was built.
