devscripts 2.16.9 source package in Debian

Changelog

devscripts (2.16.9) unstable; urgency=medium

  [ James McCoy ]
  * debsnap:
    + Fix "no binaries for given arch" detection so it doesn't download
      binaries for unspecified archs.  (Closes: #839533)
    + Add handling for the --version switch, as advertised by --help.
      (Closes: #839537)
  * bts:
    + Switch to Net::SMTPS to support STARTTLS.  Based on a patch by Andrew
      Shadura.  (Closes: #518622)
  * Refactor debuild to remove dpkg-buildpackage emulation and generally be a
    much thinner wrapper around dpkg-buildpackage.  (Closes: #789581)
    + Remove claim from man page that dpkg-buildpackage doesn't support hooks.
      (Closes: #765495)
    + Remove handling of all dpkg-buildpackage options that aren't directly
      used by debuild.
      - This fixes the issue where debuild didn't understand "-Jauto", as
        debuild now just passes it through.  (Closes: #826508)
    + Honor -a option regardless of which debuild mode is being used, since
      both modes now invoke dpkg-buildpackage.  (Closes: #611896)
    + Bump dpkg-dev (Build-)Depends to 1.17.6 for dpkg-buildpackage's
      --check-command and --hook-* options.
  * Fix debuild test failures due to new dpkg-genbuildinfo calls.
    (Closes: #844910)
  * dscverify:
    + Always display gpg output if --verbose is used, regardless of whether
      verification succeeds.  (Closes: #735416)

  [ Antonio Terceiro ]
  * debrepro:
    + Don't vary the build path. See
      https://wiki.debian.org/ReproducibleBuilds/History (section "Giving up
      on build paths") for an explanation on why it is not currently feasible
      to vary build paths for reproducible builds.
    + convert mapage to POD
    + in case of non-matching binaries, call diffoscope only on the .changes
      files instead of on the .deb files. This way we even get get diff in
      .buildinfo between the builds.

  [ Guillem Jover ]
  * debrepro improvements (Closes: #841149):
    + Simplify and make the vary() function more clear
    + Use dpkg-buildpackage instead of ad-hoc code

  [ Paul Wise ]
  * who-uploads:
    + Fix search for user IDs with gpg2 and no @debian.org user IDs (Closes: #843961)
  * uscan:
    + Fix a mention of the location of the upstream signing key (Closes: #842542)

  [ Jochen Sprickerhof ]
  * build-rdeps:
    + add -q/--quiet option for use in scripts (Closes: #844327)
