2019-10-12scripts: Remove support for versioned GnuPG 2 program and packagesGuillem Jover1-4/+3
The current default in Debian and anywhere else is to use unversioned GnuPG 2.x binaries, so there's no need anymore to try these first or at all.
2019-10-12dpkg-shlibdeps: Add support for new Build-Depends-PackagesGuillem Jover1-0/+7
This makes it possible to specify more than one package, which might be needed during transition periods for example. Closes: #926669 Based-on-patch-by: Frank Schaefer <kelledin@gmail.com>
2019-10-12dpkg-genbuildinfo: Do not include irrelevant packages in the Binary fieldGuillem Jover1-1/+2
This change is the companion to the one in dpkg-genchanges that lists only relevant packages, instead of all the ones listed in debian/control, but for the .buildinfo file instead of the .changes file.

Update to 2997t1f.
2019-03-24Dpkg::Source::Package::V1: Change default build option style to -saGuillem Jover1-1/+1
Using -sA by default means the user might lose data on overwrite if there is already a directory with the same name laying around. Closes: #910737
2019-03-24debian: Add a lintian dpkg profile to supress Debian specific tagsGuillem Jover1-0/+5
This makes it possible to disable tags that are Debian specific, such as the controversial tag emitted for vendor-specific patch series files.

2019-02-23Dpkg::Vendor::Debian: Add support for usr-local-has-* tainted tagsGuillem Jover1-0/+12
These will detect problematic files under /usr/local which can taint the current build.
2019-02-23Dpkg::Vendor::Debian: Add support for merged-usr-via-symlinks tainted tagGuillem Jover1-0/+11
This will detect whether the system we are building on contains the problematic /usr merged via symlinks deployment method. Suggested-by: Alexander E. Patrakov <patrakov@gmail.com>
2019-02-23dpkg-genbuildinfo: Add support for a new Build-Tainted-By fieldGuillem Jover1-0/+11
This field will contain a list of tainting reason tags, which can denote that the current build has potentially been broken. Suggested-by: Alexander E. Patrakov <patrakov@gmail.com>
2019-02-23dpkg(1): Document the unknown selection stateGuillem Jover1-0/+5
Closes: #922407
2019-02-23dpkg: Add new option --refuse-security-mac to control SELinuxGuillem Jover2-0/+10
This new option works in both dpkg and dpkg-statoverride. And dpkg will pass it to its children, which means dpkg-statoverride called from a maintainer script will automatically pick it up. Ref: #811037
2019-02-23dpkg-statoverride: Switch from --force option to new --force-<thing> optionsGuillem Jover2-0/+14
Deprecate --force option which will be considered an alias for --force-all for now.

2019-02-23dpkg: Parse and set new DPKG_FORCE environment variable for subprocessesGuillem Jover1-0/+9
This will make it possible for third-party tools, and also for other dpkg tools to have access to the force options specified for dpkg. Closes: #666147
2019-02-23s-s-d(1): Document behavior of --pidfile security checksGuillem Jover1-3/+6
Describe what to expect from these new checks. Closes: #921557

2019-01-22libdpkg: Add new db-fsys:Files and db-fsys:Last-Modified virtual fieldsGuillem Jover1-0/+8
This will make it possible to access the filesystem entries per package from anything that queries the database, such as «dpkg-query --show».
2019-01-15u-a: Add new --debug optionGuillem Jover1-2/+6
The code was there but commented out. Let's add proper support for debugging output, controllable at run-time.
2019-01-15s-s-d: Implement --notify-await and --notify-timeout optionsGuillem Jover1-1/+28
These implement the systemd readiness protocol for services. So that a service can tell s-s-d when it's ready and then we can return and callers can assume safely that the service is ready to work. [biebl@debian.org: - Fix some typos. ] [trek00@inbox.ru: - Fix notification directory and socket permissions. ] Closes: #910707
2019-01-15dpkg-genchanges: Only reference binary packages being uploadedGuillem Jover1-1/+3
The .changes file describes an upload, and its Binary and Description fields should contain (as documented) only references to the packages being uploaded. In case of a source-only upload, the Binary and Description fields should be empty. Closes: #818618
2019-01-15dpkg-source: Stop filtering @builddeps@ from Testsuite-Triggers fieldGuillem Jover1-1/+1
Filtering this meta-variable means that code parsing the field is unable to know whether the source specified the build dependencies as relevant for retriggering. We should also not expand the meta-variable as that would lose information, so we let it through now. Closes: #910734
2019-01-15Dpkg::Changelog::Debian: Preserve modelines at EOFGuillem Jover2-7/+7
We should keep these and consider them as pseudo-EOF markers, and stop processing once seen. [lamby@debian.org: - Initial test cases for dpkg-mergechangelogs functional tests. ] Closes: #916056
2019-01-15man: Refer to the dpkg-architecture(1) TERMS section in the VARIABLES sectionGuillem Jover1-1/+2
Makes it more explicit what these variables actually mean. Prompted-by: Axel Beckert <abe@debian.org>
2019-01-15man: Document the version introducing the -f option in dpkg-query(1)Guillem Jover1-2/+2
2019-01-15man: Clarify character classes for various formatsGuillem Jover5-10/+14
It is not always entirely clear how each character class described maps to the actual characters allowed. For example in some cases alphanumeric includes only lower-case letters, sometimes both lower-case and upper-case. Clarify it by appending the actual explicit range within parenthesis. Prompted-by: Ian Jackson <ijackson@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
2019-01-15man: Clarify databases used by --yet-to-unpack and --predep-package in dpkg(1)Guillem Jover1-0/+6
These commands use both the available database and the package selections. Prompted-by: Johannes Schauer <josch@debian.org>
2019-01-15man: Clarify deb-control(5)Guillem Jover1-1/+1
Add a reference to deb-src-control(5). Remove invalid comment in example, as this format does not allow it. Prompted-by: Helmut Grohne <helmut@subdivi.de>
2019-01-15man: Clarify dpkg-query(1) --list option behaviorGuillem Jover1-8/+10
Make it clear what will be printed when no arguments are specified. Closes: #917098
