[ Axel Beckert ]
* Adopting Lintian. (Changes #1012289 from ITA to pure RFH.)
+ Remove Chris Lamb from Uploaders (see #1012289) and re-add myself.
* Workarounds until
https://github.com/Perl-Critic/Perl-Critic/issues/925 is fixed:
+ Replace all occurrences of "Copyright ©" with "Copyright (C)" again.
+ Remove unnecessary usage of UTF-8 from bin/lintian.
+ Replace UTF-8 characters in mostly Copyright comments.
+ Replace UTF-8 characters in code with \N{…}.
* Remove literal unicode character U+0334 COMBINING TILDE OVERLAY which
likely had been added accidentally. (Triggered by the symptoms of
https://github.com/Perl-Critic/Perl-Critic/issues/925, but permanent.)
* Update copyright years in debian/copyright.
* Run perltidy over lib, bin/lintian, private/refresh-perl-provides,
private/runtests and several files in t/scripts/.
* data/…/perl-provides updated by running "debian/rules
refresh-perl-provides".
* Add Felix Lechner to debian/copyright based on copyright statements
elsewhere. Thanks for all your contributions!
* Update t/recipes/README: "debian/rules runtests" → "private/runtests"
* Follow module renaming: Perl::Critic::Freenode → Perl::…::Community.
* t/s…/h…/tag-coverage.t: Replace "$ENV{'LINTIAN_BASE'}" with
"$ENV{'LINTIAN_BASE'} // '.'" to be able to run it with "prove -l".
* init.d-general check: Avoid relying on line numbers in #DEBHELPER#
replacement code.
* very-long-line-length-in-source-file: Ignore files listed in new data
file binary-file-extensions. (Closes: #1005046)
* Fix false positives for adopted-extended-field with X- prefixed
fields. (Closes: #999768)
+ Empty hints files seem to require a Test-Against field in desc.
* Update own source lintian-overrides for "pointed hints".
+ Make them work with old and new lintian versions by using wildcards.
* Rename README.developers to have a proper file suffix (.pod).
* Switch syntax marker of README.developers.pod from "perl" to "pod".
* Documentation update: Replace directory "frontend/" with "bin/".
* Fix a bunch of "Use of uninitialized value $_ in concatenation"
warnings when running tests with "prove -l" directly.
* README.developers.pod: Explain the difference between check and test.
* lintian(1): Drop mentioning of never existing --no-overrides option.
* Replace unfitting Text::Glob with more flexible Regexp::Wildcards
(Closes: #1003353)
+ Add unit test for Lintian::Util::match_glob. The current testsuite
does not seem to be able to cover such a case.
* Declare compliance with Debian Policy 4.6.1. (No changes needed.)
* Refresh data using private/refresh-data. Skip unreleased policy though
for now.
* Fix "Use of uninitialized value $step in concatenation" in
Lintian::Version which showed up as unrecognized tag (!) when running
the test suite on the git repo already tagged for a release.
* debian/gbp.conf: Declare so far used tag format so that gbp uses it.
* Add lintian override for very-long-line-length-in-source-file in
Lintian::Check::Cruft as well as test-leaves-python-version-untested.
* Use versioned Breaks instead of Conflicts against lzd, see #1001655.
Thanks Lintian for reporting ;-) and Paul Gevers for the sanity check!
.
