dpkg (1.13.9) unstable; urgency=low

  The "On like Donkey Kong" Release.

  * Only open the log file when we first need to write to it, this avoids
    the need to suppress errors when not root which fakeroot defeated anyway.
  * Stop dpkg-source clobbering an existing .orig directory during unpacking.
    Closes: #21236.
  * Allow an alternate output directory to be specified to dpkg-source by
    giving a second argument to -x.  Closes: #246802, #282323.
  * Added .arch-inventory to default diff ignore regexp.  Closes: #304297.

  SELinux support (Manoj Srivastava):
  * On SELinux-enabled systems, try to set the security context when the
    package is unpacked.  Closes: #193653, #249496, #307139.
  * Added build-dependancy on libselinux1-dev.

  Improvements to dpkg-source (Brendan O'Dea):
  * Support unpacking of "Wig And Pen" (Format 2.0) source packages.
  * Multiple pristine upstream tarballs allowed.
  * Native and upstream tarballs may be bzip2-compressed instead of gzip,
    as may the debian diff or tarball.
  * Unsupported format error fixed to output the unsupported format
    rather than the supported one.  Closes: #156317.
