dpkg 1.14.12ubuntu3 source package in Ubuntu

Changelog

dpkg (1.14.12ubuntu3) hardy; urgency=low

  * Move lzma from Suggests to Pre-Depends for dpkg.

dpkg (1.14.12ubuntu2) hardy; urgency=low

  * Cherry pick from current trunk:
    - Included files in symbols files (via #include) do no more need to repeat
      the header line. Closes: #455260
    - scripts/Dpkg/Shlibs/SymbolFile.pm (merge_symbols): Do not update
      the deprecated version of a a symbol if it is already marked deprecated.

dpkg (1.14.12ubuntu1) hardy; urgency=low

  * Merge from debian unstable, remaining changes:
   - Add m_strdup to mlib (part of the fix for Debian #379028).
   - Use i686 for lpia in cputable and triplettable.
   - Hack Dpkg::Arch to return i686 for lpia

   Launchpad integration:
   * Implement changelog-closes-bugs for Ubuntu (see
     https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ClosingBugsFromChangelog).
   * Add Launchpad-Bugs-Fixed to dpkg-genchanges too, to make it not
     complain about unknown fields.

   DebianMaintainerField:
   * scripts/dpkg-source.pl: Check that debian/control complies to
     https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebianMaintainerField: Refuse to build a source
     package if we have an Ubuntu version number, but Maintainer: is not an
     Ubuntu address. Output a warning if there is no XSBC-Original-Maintainer:
     field for packages with an Ubuntu version number.
   * scripts/dpkg-source.pl: Only fail to build the source package if $DEBEMAIL
     contains 'ubuntu'. If not, only print a warning.
   * debian/control: Change Maintainer/XSBC-Original-Maintainer field.

   Trigger support:
   * Implement triggers as per
     http://lists.debian.org/debian-dpkg/2007/04/msg00076.html (changes too
     massive to enumerate here).
   * Add "Breaks: apt (<< 0.7.6ubuntu6), aptitude (<< 0.4.6.1-1ubuntu2)", as
     triggers add two extra states, which apt and aptitude before then do not
     know about.
   * An early version of trigger support caused LP #133172. To fix which
     systems have had the broken version work we have to rename
     triggers/Deferred to triggers/Unincorp.  The error messages, comments,
     etc. will be improved later.

dpkg (1.14.12) unstable; urgency=low

  [ Raphael Hertzog ]
  * Add -I<file> option to dpkg-gensymbols to force the usage of a specific
    symbols file.
  * Dpkg::Shlibs::find_library() now returns canonicalized paths.
  * dpkg-shlibdeps always tries the realpath() of a lib as fallback when
    trying to identify the package of a lib (and not only for symlinks).
  * dpkg-shlibdeps doesn't fail any more if it can't find unversioned
    libraries on the presumption that they are just private libraries. Outputs
    a warning instead.
  * Expand the dpkg-shlibdeps manual page with explanations concerning
    failures.
  * The environment variable DPKG_GENSYMBOLS_CHECK_LEVEL can be used to force
    dpkg-gensymbols to use a precise level of checks. Closes: #452022

  [ Guillem Jover ]
  * Define several private functions and variables as static.
  * Move extern declarations to header files and stop defining them as extern.
  * Unify parsing of Section and Priority in dpkg-gencontrol with Homepage.
  * Switch dpkg-scanpackages to use the new Dpkg::ErrorHandling and
    Dpkg::Versions modules.
