Changelog
devscripts (2.10.53ubuntu1) karmic; urgency=low
[ أحمد المحمودي (Ahmed El-Mahmoudy) ]
* Resynchronise with Debian. Remaining changes: (LP: #511269)
- rmadison: Change default URL parameter to ubuntu.
- scripts/debchange.pl:
+ Adjust --security template for Ubuntu.
+ Add -U/--upstream flag that forces original "just increment
the end" behaviour; Ubuntu is upstream for some pieces of software.
+ Add --distributor= to override lsb_release output.
+ Default to "karmic" as distribution.
+ Add "ubuntu1" to version string for new versions, with tweaks for
special cases.
+ Add -R/--rebuild flag for Ubuntu's no-change rebuilds.
- Add test/debchange.pl, test/Makefile: debchange test suite; call it
during build in debian/rules. Also add lsb-release build dependency for
this, so that debchange uses Ubuntu mode.
- scripts/debuild.pl: Enforce Ubuntu merge policy.
- scripts/debsign.{sh,1}: Implement DEBSIGN_ALWAYS_RESIGN variable to skip
the "Would you like to use the current signature?" question. (Debian
#447955)
- scripts/uupdate.{sh,1}: Use -0ubuntu1 default revision on Ubuntu.
- scripts/dscverify.pl: Add Ubuntu keyrings.
- Drop universe packages from Recommends to Suggests:
+ libcrypt-ssleay-perl: only needed for a corner case (uscan on SSL
download sites), wasn't installed by default in previous releases
either, and seems quite dead upstream
+ libsoap-lite-perl: only needed for one less common command ("select")
for bts, which isn't useful for Ubuntu itself, and pulls in a lot of
other universe Perl libraries
+ debian-{keyring,maintainers}: not useful enough in Ubuntu
+ equivs: too much of a hack to install by default
+ libyaml-syck-perl: transition-check is fairly Debian-specific
[ James Westby ]
* Revert to use Vcs-* rather than XS-Vcs-*.
devscripts (2.10.53) unstable; urgency=low
The "Debconf fish!" upload
[ Adam D. Barratt ]
* bts:
+ Add a missing "use IO::File" to make "bts select file:foo" work.
Thanks, Raphaël Hertzog. (Closes: #538288)
+ Add the "affects" command to mark a bug as affecting packages other
than the package it was filed against.
* checkbashisms: Detect the use of "source" when the sourced filename
contains a tilde (Closes: #528592) or consists of a single character
(Closes: #535252). Thanks, Raphael Geissert and Ryan Niebur.
* debcommit: Add darcs support. Thanks to Joachim Breitner for the patch.
(Closes: #536037)
* nmudiff:
+ Fix specification of BCc to control@bugs so that it's interpreted
as an option to mutt and not as a recipient address. Thanks, Filippo
Giunchedi. (Closes: #534585)
+ Add a missing "feel" to the delayed/XX template. Thanks, Raphael
Geissert.
* rmadison:
+ Add patch from Ubuntu to make lookups against their database work again.
(The server moved from people.ubuntu.com to people.canonical.com)
(Closes: #537302)
+ When using curl, follow redirects by default. (Also from the Ubuntu
patch).
* debian/control: Replace descriptions of cvs-* with those from README,
because they're better.
[ Patrick Schoenfeld ]
* bts: Implement a --mutt parameter, which allows mails to be sent
using mutt.
* debchange: Implement a dist indication mechanism that parses
an 'Upload to $DIST' line and sets the distribution accordingly, when
the --release parameter is used. (Closes: #515346)
* debi:
+ Implement a --with-depends switch to install depencies of the
package together with the package
(Closes: #511061)
+ Implement a --tool switch to choose the tool for installing
dependencies
* dget: Make it clear in manpage and usage information, that dget is capable
of processing several URLs or packages (Closes: #535977)
* dscverify:
+ Implement a --verbose option to disable suppressing
of GPG output (Closes: #525670)
+ Add a notice to the manpage of dscverify that the debian-keyring package
has the potential to be out of date and how this can be worked around
(Closes: #438679)
+ Document standard keyring locations in the dscverify manpage
* licensecheck: Skip empty files instead of reporting that they don't
have a copyright (Closes: #535337)
* nmudiff: Use 'bts select' to test, weither a check already has a patch
tag set or not and only set it, if not (Closes: #519678)
* Add a script listing to devscripts.1 which is auto-generated from
debian/control (Closes: #504008)
devscripts (2.10.52) unstable; urgency=low
* debdiff: Make --diffstat work again; accidentally broken in 2.10.48.
* uupdate: Fix invocation of *cat when attempting to apply diffs.
Thanks, Yannick Roehlly. (Closes: #533415)
* debian/control: Update Standards-Version to 3.8.2 (no changes needed)
devscripts (2.10.51) unstable; urgency=low
[ Adam D. Barratt ]
* bts:
+ Add a note to the description of --smtp-server explaining that
reportbug.debian.org does not support relaying and is therefore not a
suitable server to use in circumstances where $<email address hidden>
may be automatically Cced.
+ Ignore the --{force-,}interactive options when combined with -n.
(Closes: #531422)
* checkbashisms:
+ Detect shellscript wrappers that use "then" or "else" before calling
exec. Thanks, Raphael Geissert. (Closes: #530815)
+ Fix a false positive detection of ". $(foo bar)" as attempting to pass
arguments to a sourced script. Thanks, Raphael Geissert.
+ Detect use of passing arguments to a sourced script as part of a
conditional statement. Thanks, Raphael Geissert.
+ Correctly count the number of quotes in a line when detecting whether
we are currently inside a "quoted block". Thanks, Raphael Geissert.
(Closes: #531247)
+ Do not check the contents of a dpatch. The wrapper script always uses
/bin/sh and we can't detect the interpreter of a patch.
+ Improve the check for the use of $[] inside quoted text. Thanks,
Raphael Geissert.
+ Apply the "common lead-in text" to the "readonly" check.
+ Remove "\\" from the list of unsafe backslash escapes, as it appears to
work in all shells.
* dcmd: Parse changes / dsc files containing section or priority entries of
"-". (Closes: #531593)
* licensecheck: Fix an error in a regular expression which led to an
uninitialized value warning and missing version for some GPL headers.
Thanks, Jakub Wilk. (Closes: #531059)
* uscan: Make a regular expression example in the manpage clearer. Thanks,
Jason Heeris. (Closes: #530362)
* uupdate: Add support for .lzma compressed tarballs and diffs. Thanks to
Simon Richter for the patch. (Closes: #531570)
[ James Vega ]
* bts: Only Cc $<email address hidden> if we're reasonably sure we have
an email body instead of simply control messages; i.e., if the user
specifies the --force-interactive option or the --interactive option and
chooses to edit the email body. (Closes: #530926)
* uscan: Log the correct filename when running the post-download action.
Simplify the surrounding logic so the logging and command are less likely
to get out of sync in the future.
[ Mohammed Adnène Trojette ]
* pts-subscribe: refer to bsd-mailx rather to the transitional mailx
package. Thanks Ansgar Burchardt for the patch. (Closes: #531332)
devscripts (2.10.50) unstable; urgency=low
[ Adam D. Barratt ]
* chdist: Make --data-dir work with relative paths. (Closes: #528254)
* debchange: Add karmic (koala) to the list of recognised Ubuntu
distributions.
* debsnap: Fix mktemp call to use a sufficient number of Xs in the template
string (Closes: #528193) and use -t rather than hard-coding /tmp.
* debuild: Use printf when parsing the DEBUILD_LINTIAN_OPTS configuration
file variable, to avoid eating -E. (Closes: #527027)
* mass-bug: Add an option to specify that the supplied package names are
those of source packages rather than binary packages. Based on a patch
by Felipe Sateler. (Closes: #527396)
* rc-alert: Use standard single quotes in the debtags section of the manpage
to avoid odd formatting and warnings from man
* uscan: Pass -n to gzip when repacking bz2 files to ensure consistent
checksums. Thanks, Damyan Ivanov. (Closes: #504672)
[ Christoph Berg ]
* dget: -u implies dpkg-source --no-check. Also, force LC_ALL=C to correctly
capture dpkg-source output with --build.
devscripts (2.10.49) unstable; urgency=low
* debchange:
+ Use == for numeric comparison, not eq.
+ Mention in the help output and manpage that a dummy changelog entry
may be supplied in conjunction with --release in order to avoid
spawning an editor.
+ Add a configuration variable and command line option to allow the
recent change to --release's "auto-save" behaviour to be disabled.
For consistency with other debchange options, the default is to
retain the behaviour introduced in 2.10.48 - i.e. that the changelog
must be explicitly saved after the use of --release. (Closes: #524393)
* debcommit: If the installed version of dpkg-dev supports retrieving a
list of appropriate bugs, automatically generate bzr --fixes arguments
for Launchpad bugs as well as Debian bugs. Thanks, Colin Watson.
(Closes: #525823)
* debsign: Make the PGP signing method work again. Thanks, Florian Weimer.
(Closes: #518821)
* getbuildlog: Add a missing "use lib" to allow the special "last" and
"last-all" versions to work correctly. Thanks, Iustin Pop.
(Closes: #523982)
* licensecheck: Add detection of the AGPL. Thanks, Didier Raboud.
(Closes: #520903)
* namecheck: Fix the formatting of a number of POD strings, also making
them easier to translate. Thanks, Florentin Duneau. (Closes: #526047)
* rc-alert:
+ Allow the generated list of bugs to be restricted to those affecting
packages with particular debtags facets. Thanks, Jan Hauke Rahm.
(Closes: #523523)
+ Allow the generated list of bugs to be sorted using popcon results.
Thanks, Jan Hauke Rahm. (Closes: #478833)
* rmadison: Allow a default URL to be specified in the configuration file.
Thanks, Roland Mas. (Closes: #524198)
* uscan: Remove a superfluous and repeated copy of the site name in an FTP
error message. Thanks, Vaclav Ovsik.
* Makefile: Remove cruft relating to French manpages, which has been handled
by the po4a setup for a while now.
