Update to 2836t1f.
2017-01-25dpkg-source: Generate Testsuite-Restrictions fields from test restrictionsGuillem Jover1-0/+7
This information is currently only available in the Restrictions field in the debian/tests/control file. When dispatching tests, it might be inconvenient to have to download and unpack the source package beforehand. Let's expose this via the .dsc in a similar way we do for the Testsuite-Triggers field. Closes: #847926 Based-on-patch-by: Iain Lane <laney@debian.org>

Update to 2833t1f.
2017-01-23man, Dpkg::Control::FieldsCore: Add new Auto-Built-Package fieldGuillem Jover1-0/+8
This field is used to distinguish packages that have been automatically injected by some build tool, and are not present in the debian/control file.
2017-01-22doc: Fix typos in documentation and code commentsGuillem Jover2-4/+4
Warned-by: codespell, spellintian
2017-01-22dpkg-gencontrol: Stop emitting Built-For-ProfilesGuillem Jover1-3/+5
The information is already provided in .buildinfo files, and including it in the binary packages makes them unreproducible even when the profile used would not alter its contents. Closes: #831524
2017-01-22man: Move control member file references from dpkg(1) to deb(5)Guillem Jover2-18/+20
The information in dpkg(1) was out of place, and deb(5) already contained a skeleton of this information, which is in any case the more logical place to be.

2016-12-17libdpkg: Add virtual source:Upstream-Version fieldGuillem Jover1-0/+4
Closes: #844348
2016-12-17dpkg: Add new --validate-<thing> commandsGuillem Jover1-1/+22
These commands make it possible to test if several of those <thing>s have a valid syntax. The current list of supported things is «pkgname», «trigname», «archname» and «version».
2016-12-17dpkg-buildpackage: Add support for multiple targets on -TGuillem Jover1-9/+10
This makes it possible to run several desired targets in a single run, which avoids the overhead of the rest of the steps run. It also makes it possible to test if packages can be built twice in a row. Closes: #671074
2016-12-17man: Update dpkg-parsechangelog parser optionsGuillem Jover1-9/+1
This got missed in commit d1629d0ec1b2619a1f2bd6839f975335e9cb6484. The options specific to the changelog parser program did not get updated when the parser got switched to be a perl module. Closes: #848189
2016-12-17man: Fix bogus description of --force-confmissGuillem Jover1-4/+3
This force option is the only one that performs its action independently of the conffile changing or not in the new package. The description was bogusly updated when trying to clarify the other conf force options. Regression introduced in commit 4bcc6b8e0a587b432b145fafa642674607cddddd. Reported-by: Sven Joachim <svenjoac@gmx.de> Closes: #846395

2016-11-16dpkg-buildpackage: Fallback to one job on unknown number of online processorsGuillem Jover1-1/+2
On unsupported or exotic systems where we might be unable to retrieve the number of online processors and have been requested to infer them ourselves via the --jobs or --jobs-try “auto” argument, default to serial execution instead of unlimited jobs, to be on the safe side. Proposed-by: Simon McVittie <smcv@debian.org>
2016-11-16dpkg-genbuildinfo: Bump Format to version 0.2Guillem Jover1-1/+1
2016-11-16dpkg-genbuildinfo: Use deterministic .buildinfo filenamesGuillem Jover3-30/+9
Using undeterministic filenames based on the buildinfo-id produces ugly looking filenames, which get left behind when rebuilding the same source multiple times as they vary by date. There's really no great point in using unique filenames as they will end up with different contents depending on the builder.
2016-11-16dpkg-genbuildinfo: Add Build-Date fieldGuillem Jover1-0/+5
This records the time the build happened. This might be useful when there is a need to track down problems caused by external time-based events not visible from inside the build system. Things like hardware, software deployment or other such failures.

2016-11-11man: Clarify how to revert to the serial dpkg-buildpackage behaviorGuillem Jover1-1/+2
Explicitly mention in dpkg-buildpackage(1) that setting the number of parallel jobs to 1, restores the serial behavior. Prompted-by: Thorsten Glaser <t.glaser@tarent.de>
2016-11-11man: Improve the DEB_BUILD_OPTIONS description in dpkg-buildpackage(1)Guillem Jover1-2/+7
Mention that this flag might also affect the beahavior of debian/rules, and also mention the parallel option.
2016-11-11libdpkg, scripts: Change default color behavior to autoGuillem Jover2-4/+4
Our test run with the setting activated by apt, has not shown any signs of pitch forks nor angry mobs. Let's switch this by default to auto, so that the more clear but still hopefully unobtrusive colors can help people deal with interesting messages, warnings or error conditions.

2016-11-07Dpkg::Vendor::Debian: Improve PIE flags supportGuillem Jover1-13/+18
Fix changelog for dpkg 1.18.11 to mention PIE got enabled by default for all architectures, not just the ones where gcc does that itself. When emitting PIE flags on architectures where gcc does not inject those itself, do it via a specs file too, so that maintainers can use them unconditionally regardless of the object being compiled or linked. When injecting -no-pie for linking via gcc specs also inject -fno-PIE. Update the documentation to make the current situation more clear.
