2016-05-09dpkg-source: Add new --require-strong-checksums option and change defaultGuillem Jover1-0/+5
Erroring out when no strong checksums are present is very harsh, as we do not even do something similar for invalid/unknown/expired signatures which means doing this for checksums has really no point. Add a new command-line option to force the behavior to be strict, and change to a warning. Regression introduced in commit 040973c7a1e50b78ef042ef5ffbfff0440c24700. Closes: #823428 Reported-by: Niko Tyni <ntyni@debian.org>
2016-05-09man: Shorten example symbol names in dpkg-gensymbols(1)Guillem Jover13-106/+106
This fixes a mandb warning due to very long strings in the Dutch man page translation that is part of a block quote, and cannot be line wrapped. Unfuzzy all translations. Warned-by: lintian

2016-05-02dpkg: Add new --force-script-chrootless optionHelmut Grohne1-1/+9
Currently, dpkg chroots to the instdir before invoking maintainer scripts. The new force flag will inhibit the chroot call. The user is supposed to know that the packages being operated on does support this new mode of operation. Thus the force flag is marked as dangerous. [guillem@debian.org: - Rename force option to --force-script-chrootless. - Reword force option description in man page. - Reactor changedir variable. ] Ref: #804624 Signed-off-by: Guillem Jover <guillem@debian.org>
2016-05-02dpkg: Export variable DPKG_ROOT in maintainer scriptsHelmut Grohne1-0/+10
This variable holds the value of instdir. It is supposed to be used in maintainer scripts. It should be prepended to all paths that are operated on. Currently, dpkg chroots to the instdir before invoking maintainer scripts, so when it does that DPKG_ROOT is set to the empty string. Thus currently, DPKG_ROOT is always empty. [guillem@debian.org: - Reword man page to clarify current status. ] Closes: #804624 Signed-off-by: Guillem Jover <guillem@debian.org>
2016-05-02Dpkg::Vendor::Debian: Add fixdebugpath to reproducible featureDaniel Kahn Gillmor1-0/+10
This feature normalizes the path stored in debug symbols, so that these symbols can be built reproducibly regardless of the location of the build in the larger filesystem. It defaults to off, but should be enabled by systems trying to generate reproducible packages. [guillem@debian.org: - Add additional build flags. - Rename feature name. - Import Cwd module with require instead of use. ] Closes: #819194 Signed-off-by: Guillem Jover <guillem@debian.org>
2016-05-02dpkg-genchanges: Add new -O optionGuillem Jover1-1/+5
This unifies this command with other commands outputting a generated file.
2016-05-02dpkg-shlibdeps: Add new -I option to ignore package build directoriesGuillem Jover1-0/+5
This option can be used to completely ignore local package build trees, for example in cases where've got multiple compatible builds of the same shared library, which provide use the same SONAME, and we want all our local objects to use the same single library instead of whatever came first. Using -x in the above case does not work, because that just removes the dependency after processing, so we end up with missing dependencies. Closes: #821025
2016-05-02Dpkg::Source::Package: Include upstream orig tarball signaturesGuillem Jover1-0/+8
If there are upstream signatures for orig.tar files, pick them up and include them in the .dsc file. See: #759478
2016-05-02scripts: Add support for new --build option to define build typeGuillem Jover2-45/+87
This simplifies the way to select what to build, and makes it both easier to remember, and easier to deal with in the code. The current set of split single options are really a mess.
2016-05-02libdpkg, scripts: Add very basic color supportGuillem Jover2-0/+10
This adds disabled by default color output, that can be enabled with the new DPKG_COLOR environment variable. The colors are currently hard-coded ANSI escape sequences, but will be made configurable eventually.

Commit e49be6015dcdcc3ef62ab6bbf58de5053e7dd8ad did not update the dpkg-buildflags documentation to reflect the fact that at least i386 does not suffer from performance loss due to PIE when using gcc >= 5. Reported-by: Niels Thykier <niels@thykier.net>
