+ Fix directory naming when using -f and no explicit destination directory
was specified
* uscan:
+ Parse sites which embed newlines inside hrefs (horrible, but works)
+ Always treat patterns referring to FTP sites as case-sensitive rather
than a confusing (and broken) mixture of case-sensitive and
case-insensitive matching

* checkbashisms:
+ Add experimental makefile support (only enabled if -f is used)
+ Modify the "2>&foo" check to allow a valid file descriptor followed
by a backslash (for line continuations)
+ Check the initial lines of shell script wrappers. Based on a patch from
Raphael Geissert
+ Fix a couple of the quoted block detection checks so as not to trigger
on escaped quotes and correctly count quotes within lines containing ''
or ""
+ Only rebuild the lists of expressions to search for when required,
rather than for each line of each file
+ Disable "makefile mode" after checking a makefile if the next file to
check isn't a makefile
+ Several enhancements to heredoc detection:
- Heredoc delimiters may contain "non word" characters if the delimiter
is quoted. As a side-effect, delimiters which match one of the bashism
expressions may now be flagged due to the order in which checks are
performed.
- SUS specifies that a heredoc ends on a line consisting solely of a
delimiter, so we enforce that and also don't check such lines.
- Delimiters may now contain regular expression meta-characters.
+ Match shell script wrappers that don't pass on parameters when execing
(for example for scripts which take all input from STDIN)
+ Add a check for process substitution (using "foo <(bar)")
* debchange:

could lead to a spurious stanza being added to the end of the changelog
+ Skip automatic NMU detection if -a or -r was passed on the command line

indicate a "change" for the purposes of deciding whether to strip
the message

Emulation will still be used if any of the clean, dpkg-source, build,
binary, dpkg-genchanges or final-clean hooks are defined, as dpkg

the changelog will be checked for uncommitted changes when determining
the commit message. The default is not to do so and use the message
passed with --message (if any) or "releasing version X.Y.Z" as before.

Thanks to gregor herrmann for pointing the obvious solution out.
+ Don't complain about the package version changing from native to
non-native if --nmu or --security was used

+ If starting a changelog stanza for a new maintainer upload with
the distribution set to UNRELEASED, check whether the previous

+ Add non-maintainer uploads (including security and QA uploads),
backports and the use of local version strings to the list of
cases where debchange doesn't have to guess the user's intentions
+ Add an --allow-lower-version option which is similar to
--force-bad-version but allows a regular expression to be specified
which the new version must match. Based on a patch by Frank Küster
(Closes: #381159)
+ Modify the version-handling code to generate NMU versions of the
form X+nmu1 for Debian-native packages

+ Use Getopt::Long for option parsing
+ Add an option to force checking of scripts that would normally be
skipped (Closes: #469023)
+ Clarify in the manpage that some issues detected by the script may
be XSIisms etc rather than strictly bash-specific features
+ Add checks for suspend, caller, complete/compgen, declare/typeset,
disown, builtin, set -[BHT], alias -p, unalias -a, local with
options or an assigned value and $BASH(_*). Thanks to Raphael
Geissert for the patch (Closes: #469050)
+ Modify each of the simple shell variable tests (e.g. $RANDOM) to
also match ${variable}
+ Identify and ignore multi-line quoted text (Closes: #464641)

source passing arguments rather than misuse of $HOSTNAME
+ Fix a potential false positive on "2>& 1"
+ Fix an unescaped hyphen in the manpage

alphanumerics and underscore
+ Modify the "read without variable" test to also catch options other
than -r. Thanks Luca Capello (Closes: #470696)
+ Add an option to allow flagging of lines which do not contain bashisms
but which may contain other useful information - for example, checking
whether $BASH is set before using bashisms or $RANDOM being used as a
local variable rather than the bash built-in variable (Closes: #470999)
+ Add a check for "VAR+=foo" (Closes: #471001)
+ Also detect <<< inside a quoted string (Closes: #471059)

+ Don't treat "userblah" as an alias for "users" in "select"
* debcommit:
+ Set $SVKDIFF before calling "svk diff" (Closes: #469238)
+ If there are uncommitted changes to the changelog when --release is
used, use them as the commit message. Otherwise use the message passed
with --message or "releasing version X.Y" as currently
(Closes: #470366)
+ Format commit messages in a more useful manner for git and hg. The
first change found is unfolded and used as the summary line. If more
than one change was found then an editor is spawned so that the message
can be fine-tuned if required (Closes: #402531)
* deb[ci]:
+ Allow either package names or filenames to be passed on the
command line (Closes: #469663)
+ Fix reference to dpkg-deb(8) (should be section 1) and an unescaped
hyphen in the manpage

devscripts (2.8.11) unstable; urgency=low

to Olafur Jens Sig for alerting me to this one)
- bts: fix --cache-mode=mbox after --cache-mode=min bug (closes: #290487)

newer versions regardless (closes: #260538)
- uscan: handle metacharacters in directory components (closes: #262489)

pretty much what was requested) (closes: #143284)

(tweaked some sed scripts; don't know what was actually wrong :-/ )
(closes: #268948)
* Joshua Kwan
- debrsign: Warn if you passed a changes file but omitted the remote
address.
- Update debchange and tagpending for new bts2ldap gateway.
- Remove ${perl:Depends} from control file, dh_perl is not guessing that
we do actually need 5.8, and so we end up with a perl (>= 5.8), perl
dependency, which is wrong.

devscripts (2.7.93) unstable; urgency=low
* New scripts:
- cvs-debuild: wrapper for debuild to use cvs-buildpackage, or for
cvs-buildpackage to use debuild (closes: #36344 at last!)
- cvs-debi, cvs-debc: wrapper for debi, debc to use in conjunction
with cvs-debuild or cvs-buildpackage; function like
debi and debc, but are run from the CVS working
directory instead (also in #36344)
- rc-alert: list all installed packages which appear in the
list of packages with RC bugs
- wnpp-alert: list all installed packages which appear in the WNPP
orphaned or up-for-adoption lists (closes: #188246)
* lots of scripts: remove --ignore-dirname option and provide
--check-dirname-level and --check-dirname-regex along with
configuration file options to set the default directory name-checking
behaviour (closes: #218153)

which read the devscripts configuration files, and provide useful
information when the --help option is used (closes: #218224)
* bts: identify itself in its automatic emails (closes: #199312)
* bts: dangerous "no-option" behaviour to cleancache changed
* bts: completely rewrite the caching system using LWP, based on an idea
gleaned from the original rc-alert together with knowledge of the BTS
internals ;-); this does give a couple of minor disadvantages, but
lots of major advantages too (the code is much cleaner now, and we
only need to store each page once!); there is still a slightly messy
converter to convert the old cache to the new format, but that shall
go away soonish (probably after 2-3 months or sarge release, whichever
is sooner), to be replaced with a simple warning
* bts: support "bts bugs tag:<tag>" (closes: #218494)
* bts: deprecate "bts close" command, following the lead of debbugs
* accept EMAIL as well as DEBEMAIL (closes: #219127)

(closed #218108, #218234)
* debuild: more command-line parsing stuff (closes: #218379, #220900)
* debuild: pass -e<maint> option to debsign (oops!)
* debuild: deprecate -E option (dpkg-buildpackage now uses it); so only
-e and -r short options are left
* debuild: deprecate -L/--lintian option for indicating lintian options,
replace with --lintian-opts
* debuild: support linda (closes: #178456)
* debuild: now always recognises -d/-D options to skip/force use of
dpkg-checkbuilddeps (closes: #188216)
* grep-excuses: converted to use wget and caching instead of libwww-perl
(faster)
* plotchangelog: provided --cumulative option
* devscripts.conf.5: new manpage (closes: #217858)
* removed the dummy build, release and signchanges scripts (they were
renamed over four years ago)
* updated the devscripts.conf default file to add new programs to the
list
* note that it's really sourced by /bin/bash. not generic /bin/sh (and
modify the rest of the package accordingly); this cleans up a minor
inconsistency
* place symlink to the default config file in doc directory
* improved tempfile security in plotchangelogs, debdiff, grep-excuses

* Now only Suggests: rather than Recommend: perl-suid (closes: #35635) * Added Roderick's patch to dscverify, and added a change directory feature of my own: a .changes file may be in any directory, and the program will cd to that directory before trying to read any files (closes: #34255) * Added a rewritten, Perl version, of Yann Dirson's debdiff script (closes: #34781)

package (closes: #32736)
* Modify uupdate to accept a -u argument to keep an Upstream pristine
source (closes: #32680, #12443); bump up the minor version number for
this
* A few other miscellaneous bug fixes to uupdate to be stricter about
seeming problems
* Added a new program: signchanges for signing a .changes/.dsc pair
without needing any of the rest of the source or binary files to be
present; this is useful for when a developer must build a package on
a machine other than the one on which he is signing

devscripts (2.0.2) unstable; urgency=low
* Disallow debchange and uupdate from being run by root or setuid; this
prevents possible /tmp exploits (Spotted by Joey Hess)
* Use the TMPDIR environment variable instead of /tmp if it is set
(requested by Zephaniah E, Hull)

devscripts (2.0.0) unstable; urgency=low
* New maintainer
* Standards: 2.5.0.0
* New version numbering scheme: major.minor.patchlevel
* Changed the name of build to debuild. build now just prints an error
message and will disappear completely in the near future.
* Correct handling of epochs in debc, debi and release (closes: #29855)
* Use environment variables EDITOR, then VISUAL, and failing that,
/usr/bin/editor in accordance with policy 5.3 (except that VISUAL is
not mentioned there) (closes: #28605)
* Many modifications to uscan: it now compares version numbers
correctly, using a Perl script which works in a similar way to
dpkg --compare-versions, and it no longer has the extra 0 bug
(closes: #19235, #19467); it no longer uses ncftp but only ftp
(closes: #20968)
* uscan now expects the watch file to explicitly indicate how to deduce
the version number from the filename, by writing the filename as a
Perl regular expression and enclosing the version number part in (...)
* uupdate now allows a version number as an argument after the archive
filename, allowing it to work in harmony with uscan (closes: #20278)
* uupdate no longer tries to remove *.orig files, as the only ones which
are created by GNU patch are those where the patch failed, and we
probably _want_ to keep those (closes: #25774)
* build rewritten in Perl (now called debuild); has a nicer handling of
command line options (can accept a -r option with one of binary etc.,
and doesn't need an explicit -r option if there are other
dpkg-buildpackage options) (closes: #27752)
* debpkg rewritten in Perl as well
* This package is now an Architecture: all package as there are no
binaries left
* debchange now uses the last distributions mentioned in the changelog
as the default for the new version (closes: #30204)
* debchange now uses the environment variables DEBFULLNAME and EMAIL as
the uploader's details if these are set
* release has been deprecated in favour of dupload, and now just prints
a message suggesting the use of dupload instead (Closes: #29826,
#29978)
* The debchange command line options have been changed. debchange no
longer pays attention to the presence of a RELEASED file. The -i
option is for Increasing the Debian release number; the -a option is
for Appending to the current version, and the -v option specifies a
specific version number. One of these is mandatory
* Debchange now adds new changelog entries to the END of the current
section, rather than the beginning
* Improved logic of upgrading the Debian release number in debchange
* Debchange does not supply a release number if there is an explicit
version number provided
* Now debchange works on a version of the changelog in /tmp and only
overwrites the current changelog if everything is OK; this is much
safer than the original version. Also, all system calls have their
return status checked
* release and build now print error messages suggesting their
replacements
* debuild now runs lintian by default if it is installed; there is an
override facility etc., as described in the manpage (Closes: #18254)
* Added Roderick Schertler's dscverify program to devscripts
* Rewrote many bits of many man pages
* debian/rules and Makefile modified to use debhelper
