Prompted by #968963.

See #972580.
* libdpkg: Do not forget not-installed packages that are set on hold.
Reported by David Kalnischkies <donkult@debian.org>.
* update-alternatives: Fix memory leaks for alternative database context on
load errors.
the package that did not remove the obsolete conffile if this was not
implemented at the time the file became obsolete. Closes: #582893
* Enhance dpkg-maintscript-helper rm_conffile and mv_conffile to work
properly when <lastversion> is not given (or is empty). Closes: #582819
* Small fix in dpkg-gensymbols' handling of tags. Closes: #583656
Thanks to Michael Tautschnig <mt@debian.org> for the report and the fix.
* update-alternatives has been rewritten in C, the only feature change
should be that it uses its own logfile /var/log/alternatives.log (rotated
like dpkg.log).
* Implement new --unapply-patches option for dpkg-source with source formats
2.0 and 3.0 (quilt) that unapplies the patches after a successful build.
This option can be put in debian/source/local-options in the package VCS
repository for instance.
* Implement new --abort-on-upstream-changes option for dpkg-source with
source formats 1.0, 2.0 and 3.0 (quilt). It aborts every time that you try
to build a source package which contains (unmanaged) changes to the
upstream source code. Closes: #579012
* dpkg-source now captures the output of patch and prints it on error so
that the user can better diagnose what went wrong. Closes: #575304
* Fix Dpkg::Changelog to cope properly with an entry of version "0".
Add non-regression test for this. Closes: #587382
* Add --export command to dpkg-buildflags to be used in shell with eval.
* Modify source format "3.0 (git)" to use git bundles. Thanks to Joey Hess
for the patch.
The usage of git bundle avoids distributing cruft. Closes: #477954
It's no longer needed to tell which branch contains the debian packaging,
it uses automatically the one that was used at build-time. Closes: #534637
* Pass --no-name option to gzip to avoid encoding the timestamp in the file
so that the result is more predictable. Closes: #587724
Also pass --rsyncable to make source packages more rsync friendly.
* Replace dpkg-source's tar ignore pattern "*~" with "*/*~" to avoid
matching on the top level directory. Closes: #588265
* In source formats "2.0" and "3.0 (quilt)", make sure to remove the
upstream-provided debian directory before copying the debian-provided
version of that directory in place. Closes: #590297
[ Guillem Jover ]
* Require gettext 0.18:
- Remove embedded gettext files from the repository, now properly
installed by autopoint for all po/ directories.
- Add versioned Build-Depends.
* Fix variable usage after delete in dselect.
* Change default configure admindir to LOCALSTATEDIR/lib/dpkg from
LOCALSTATEDIR/dpkg, so that we can use a correct --localstatedir=/var.
* Add two new dpkg options --path-exclude and --path-include for filtering
files on package installation. This allows embedded systems to skip
/usr/share/doc, manpages, etc. Based on work from Tollef Fog Heen and
Martin Pitt, thanks! Closes: #68788, #68861, #497304, #525567, #583902
* Remove obsolete internal status aliases âpostinst-failedâ for
stat_halfconfigured and âremoval-failedâ for stat_halfinstalled.
* Check version syntax when parsing it from libdpkg based programs.
Closes: #574704
* Rewrite mksplit in C, and merge it into dpkg-split.
* Rewrite dpkg-divert in C.
* Use linux-any wildcard for libselinux1-dev Build-Depends instead of
using a list of negated architectures.
* Use Breaks instead of Conflicts in dpkg, dpkg-dev and libdpkg-perl binary
packages.
* Move Dpkg.pm and Dpkg/Gettext.pm from dpkg to libdpkg-perl.
* Bump Standards-Version to 3.9.1.
* Detect when another process has locked the database, and mention that
problematic dpkg --audit results might be due to ongoing operations.
Closes: #80252
* Add new dpkg --force-confask option that forces a conffile prompt when
the conffile from the new package does not differ from the previous one.
Thanks to Henning Makholm <henning@makholm.net>. Closes: #102609
* On dpkg-divert --rename, check if the source file exists, and disable
renaming if it does not. Closes: #550252
As a side effect, this avoids useless errors when the destination
directory is not existent or writable. Closes: #581544
* Properly compute the longest package description from all to be displayed
on âdpkg-query --listâ, so that it does not get incorrectly trimmed.
* Consistently use earlier/later instead of smaller/bigger when describing
comparison relationships. Closes: #587641
* Stop exporting DPKG_LIBDIR to maintainer scripts, no need for it anymore.
* Assign correct SELinux label on non-regular files. Based on a patch by
Russell Coker <russell@coker.com.au>. Closes: #587949
* Add -F option to dpkg-buildpackage to be able to explicitly specify a
normal full build and combine it with -nc. Closes: #547993
* Add missing mentions of the Breaks field alongside the other fields
sharing the same syntax in deb-control(5).
Thanks to Osamu Aoki <osamu@debian.org>. Closes: #590472

dpkg (1.15.7.2) unstable; urgency=low
[ Raphaël Hertzog ]
* Update dpkg-buildflags to respect $XDG_CONFIG_HOME and to use
$XDG_CONFIG_HOME/dpkg/buildflags.conf by default.
* Update deb-substvars(5) to codify how variables containing multiple
lines must be managed.
* Fix boolean evaluation of Dpkg::Version so that version 0 evaluates to
false and dpkg-shlibdeps can strip the minimal version specification.
Closes: #579724
Document this behaviour in the API and add non-regression test to ensure
it's kept.
* Let dpkg-buildflags error out when a required parameter is missing.
Closes: #579722
* Add Bug-Ubuntu field in DEP-3 template provided in the automatic header
( run in 0.524 second using v1.01-cache-2.11-cpan-39bf76dae61 )
