[ubuntu/saucy-proposed] dpkg 1.16.12ubuntu1 (Accepted)

Fri Oct 4 07:22:12 UTC 2013

dpkg (1.16.12ubuntu1) saucy; urgency=low

  * Merge with Debian stable-proposed-updates, 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.
    - 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.
    - Apply a workaround from mvo to consider RC packages as multiarch,
      during the dpkg consistency checks. (see LP: 1015567 and 1057367).
    - Don't set unsupported -fstack-protector in dpkg-buildflags on arm64.
  * Add ppc64el/powerpc64le support to cputable (backported from 1.17.2)

dpkg (1.16.12) stable; urgency=low

  * Fix value caching in Dpkg::Arch by not shadowing the variables.
    Closes: #724949

dpkg (1.16.11) stable; urgency=low

  [ Raphaël Hertzog ]
  * Fix usage of non-existent _() function in multiple places of the Perl
    code. Thanks to Lincoln Myers <lincoln at netapp.com> for the patch.
    Closes: #708607

  [ Guillem Jover ]
  * Fix chmod() arguments order in Dpkg::Source::Quilt. Closes: #710265
    Thanks to Pablo Oliveira <pablo at sifflez.org>.
  * Only ignore older packages if the existing version is informative. This
    allows any program using libdpkg to parse the available file to see again
    packages with versions lesser than 0-0 (like 0~0-0). Closes: #676664
  * Fix use after free in dpkg_arch_load_list() on libdpkg.

  [ Updated programs translations ]
  * Vietnamese (Trần Ngọc Quân). Closes: #715334

  [ Added man page translations ]
  * Italian (Beatrice Torracca). Closes: #711647

  [ Updated man page translations ]
  * Japanese (TAKAHASHI Motonobu). Closes: #704240
