dpkg (1.16.7ubuntu1) quantal; urgency=low
* Merge from Debian unstable. Remaining changes:
- Change the multiarch downgrade version checks in prerm/postrm
from 1.16.2 to 1.16.0~ to reflect when multiarch landed in Ubuntu.
- Migrate dpkg multiarch conffile (and other multi-arch-related
conf settings) to the new DB with dpkg --add-architecture, but
keep a copy of the old conffile if it was modified.
- Out of paranoia, keep an option handler for foreign-architecture
that informs people that they need to scrub their config files
and upgrade, on the off chance that the above migration fails
for some reason (this mitigates the chances of leaving users with
a dpkg that fails to run due to a broken config).
- Add DPKG_UNTRANSLATED_MESSAGES environment check so that higher-level
tools can get untranslated dpkg terminal log messages while at the
same time having translated debconf prompts. This is useful for tools
that hide the dpkg terminal by default and use apport for bug
reporting with the untranslated error message.
- Build-depend on gettext:any for cross-building support.
- Apply patch from Steve McIntyre to special-case armhf/armel ELF
objects in Shlibs/Objdump.pm, so we don't get incorrect deps.
- lib/dpkg/pkg-spec.c: map unqualified package names of multiarch-same
packages to the native arch instead of throwing an error, so that we
don't break on upgrade when there are unqualified names stored in
dpkg's own trigger database.
- Add logic to the postinst to `dpkg --add-architecture i386' on new
installs on amd64, and to also do so on upgrades from pre-conffile
Ubuntu versions, mimicking our previous behaviour with the conffile.
* Alter the foreign-architecture option handler to output to stderr
instead of stdout, for people who prefer their stdout less noisy.

dpkg (1.16.6) unstable; urgency=low
[ Guillem Jover ]
* Do not translate SE Linux context to human readable form while unpacking,
as that might cause the operation to fail if the mcstransd daemon
stopped running during the transaction. Closes: #679641
Thanks to Russell Coker <russell at coker.com.au>.
* Add --control-list and --control-show to dpkg-query --help output.
[ Raphaël Hertzog ]
* Fix import of error functions in dpkg-buildflags. Regression introduced
in 1.16.5.

dpkg (1.16.5) unstable; urgency=low
[ Raphaël Hertzog ]
* dpkg-source will now clean up after a failed application of a quilt
patch. Closes: #652970
And it will display a message explaining the most likely cause of
failure (patch applying with fuzz).
* When dpkg-source regenerates the automatic patch (with formats "2.0"
or "3.0 (quilt)") it will keep the current patch header to avoid
losing changes made by the maintainer.
* Modify dpkg-source --commit to auto-whitelist modified binary files.
That way the same command can be used whatever kind of upstream files
has been modified.
* dpkg-source now supports a new option --no-unapply-patches to force
patches to be kept applied after build (used by formats "2.0" and "3.0
(quilt)"). Closes: #643043
[ Guillem Jover ]
* Add a dpkg-buildflags --status action to describe the flag settings.
Thanks to Bernhard R. Link <brlink at debian.org>. Closes: #664058
* Add support for “binary-only” key-value option in changelogs, to allow
marking changelog entries as part of a binary only upload, having a
different version from the source package. Closes: #440094, #672723
* Minimize source architecture list on «dpkg-source -b» by removing
architectures already covered by architecture wildcards. Closes: #675333
* Do not assume $ENV{'HOME'} is defined in Dpkg::Source::Package.
Thanks to Niels Thykier <niels at thykier.net>. Closes: #677631
* Document in more detail in deb(5) the supported ar archive format.
* Document in deb-src-control(5) the “Private-” field prefix.
* Add new start-stop-daemon --no-close option to disable closing file
descriptors on --background. Closes: #627333, #646425
* Switch source compression to xz.
* Detect ar header fields truncation due to too long member names or too
large member sizes. Closes: #678933
* Add new dpkg-query --control-list and --control-show commands, which
replace the now deprecated --control-path.
* Print master and slave alternarive link names in update-alternatives
--query and always print alternative link in --config. Closes: #679010
* Cleanup and clarify buffer I/O error reporting. Closes: #621763
* Avoid full stop and double newline at the end of errors and warnings.
Thanks to Jonathan Nieder <jnieder at gmail.com>. Closes: #624000
* Change all programs to accept -? instead of -h for help output.
* Add support for specific arch-qualified dependencies. Closes: #676232
Thanks to Thibaut Girka <thib at sitedethib.com>.
* Accept “:native” arch-qualified Build-Dependencies. Closes: #558095
Thanks to Thibaut Girka <thib at sitedethib.com>.
* Do not use undefined values returned form deps_parse() in dpkg-shlibdeps.
Closes: #640676
* Add an Architecture column to «dpkg-query -l» before the Description
column. Suggested by Jonathan Nieder <jnieder at gmail.com>. Closes: #673190
