There are too many sections for the same theme, Scheme, in the info
directory. Please group the entries together coherently.

I will file bug reports against these other packages too.

Closes: 115450 1145694
Changes:
 mit-scheme (12.1-5) unstable; urgency=medium
 .
   * Remove redundant build dependency.
   * bump to debhelper 14
   * bump watch file to v5
   * Add patch to drop the ineffective (and now conflicting with glibc)
     late definition of _POSIX_C_SOURCE in src/microcode/chacha.i, which
     broke the -Werror microcode build. (Closes: #1145694)
   * Put the Info manuals in the "The Algorithmic Language Scheme"
     section, alongside the other Scheme systems, instead of in
     "Programming Languages" on their own. (Closes: #115450)
   * Patch blowfish_selftest to copy only the 8 bytes the Blowfish IV
     actually has; it was copying 16, overrunning both source and
     destination on the stack (gcc -Warray-bounds catches it).
   * Drop the redundant update-alternatives --remove calls from the
     postrm; the prerm already withdraws them, and by postrm time the
     binary is gone, so those calls could leave /etc/alternatives
     dangling.
   * Build-depend on libncurses-dev rather than the obsolete libncurses5-
     dev.
   * Stop spelling out ${shlibs:Depends} and ${misc:Depends}; debhelper
     compat 14 fills the dependency fields in on its own, and naming them
     made dpkg-gencontrol warn.
   * Also install the man page under the version-qualified name of the
     real binary.
   * Refer to the FSF licence page in debian/copyright instead of the old
     postal address.
   * Record the upstream bug tracker in debian/upstream/metadata.
   * Add DEP-3 Forwarded: fields to the patches that lacked them.
   * Override two lintian tags that do not apply: the interpreter's file
     name is architecture-qualified, and the desktop entry's command
     comes from update-alternatives.
   * Patch sos.texinfo to drop a stray menu that claimed six sibling
     chapters as children of the Introduction.
