Changelog
dpkg (1.15.8.5) unstable; urgency=low
[ Guillem Jover ]
* Do not print a warning when parsing status or status log files on
half-installed packages w/o a Description or Maintainer field, as
this happens normally when the package was never installed before.
Closes: #594167
* Improve git format documentation in dpkg-source(1).
Thanks to Joey Hess, based on a patch by Tanguy Ortolo.
* Clarify effect of “dpkg --purge” on homedir files in dpkg(1).
Thanks to The Fungi <email address hidden>. Closes: #593628
* Add gettext plurals infrastructure support.
* Add gettext messages for plural forms. Closes: #594218
* Fix possible but improbable segfault in update-alternatives in case
the master file name contains a format string specifier. Reported by
Sandro Cazzaniga.
* Fix realloc usage on compat scandir() implementation.
[ Raphaël Hertzog ]
* Fix dpkg-genchanges to not split the short description in the middle of a
UTF8 character. Closes: #593442
* Drop -k parameter from the tar call used by dpkg-source to extract
tarballs. Upstream binary files modified by the packager were not properly
installed due to this. Thanks to James Westby for the report.
Closes: #594440
* Make dpkg Breaks: dpkg-dev (<< 1.15.8) so that older versions of dpkg-dev
that did not depend on libdpkg-perl must be upgraded together with dpkg.
