[ Guillem Jover ]
* Fix typos in 1.16.9 changelog entry. Closes: #691954
Thanks to Nicolás Alvarez <nicolas.alvarez@gmail.com>.
* Add missing @LIBLZMA_LIBS@ to Libs.Private in libdpkg.pc.in.
* Do not use an undefined va_list variable in dpkg_put_errno().
* Abort installation if we cannot set the security context for a file.
* Fix OpenPGP armored signature parsing, to be resilient against doctored
input, including source package control files. Closes: #695919
* Make sure the OpenGPG armor contains a signature block, even on EOF.
* Do not accept Armor Header Lines inside a paragraph.
* Do not abort dselect when multiarch is detected, as that only makes
users downgrade and hold on an older version w/ worse multiarch support.
* Fix warning in Dpkg::Source::Archive with «perl -w» due to redefinition
of getcwd() by removing unused POSIX modules usage. Closes: #700978

dpkg (1.16.9) unstable; urgency=low
[ Raphaël Hertzog ]
* Fix dpkg-source regression in "3.0 (quilt)" source packages while
unapplying patches that remove all files in a directory. Closes: #683547
* Fix segfault in field format parsing on empty strings, affecting
«dpkg-query -W -f ''» and «dpkg-deb -W --showformat=''». LP: #1035512
* Fix dpkg's French usage string which was missing the final “s“ in
--print-foreign-architectures. Closes: #685863
[ Guillem Jover ]
* Use “statoverrides” instead of “statusoverrides” in dpkg-statoverride.
Closes: #686995
* Comment out dpkg(1) documentation about disabled --command-fd option.
Closes: #685677
* Cleanup dpkg-divert unit-test environment to avoid build failures.
Closes: #687656
* Fix update-alternatives test suite to behave correctly on non-Debian
binary paths. Known to be affecting at least Gentoo and Mac OS X.
* Do not leak subcall command arguments in update-alternatives.
* Fix segfault on update-alternatives when passing --slave without any
action at all. LP: #1037431
* Fix memory leak in dpkg filesavespackage().
* Do not print garbage (or worse) on dpkg shared conffile debug output.
* Use a hash instead of a ref to a hash for keys() in Dpkg::BuildFlags
get_feature_areas(). This causes compilation failures with older perl
versions, which can be an issue with partial upgrades.
* Fix filter subpattern debug output format string to print an actual
value instead of just blanks.
* Ignore trailing filter subpattern slashes on reinclusion comparison.
This makes sure to reinclude directories previously excluded so that
contained files marked for inclusion do not fail to unpack due to a
missing directory. Closes: #688416
* Do not consider obsolete conffiles as actively owned by the package.
This ensures conffile entries are not mishandled nor mixed up when
configuring packages owning the non-obsolete conffiles. Closes: #689836
Based on a patch by Andreas Beckmann <debian@abeckmann.de>.
* Properly mark in the database obsolete conffiles on package replaces.
* Sync the Conffiles field values for all package instances. Because
only the first package instance being configured will have a *.dpkg-new
conffile available to be processed, the subsequent ones need to use the
hash from the previously processed entries.
* Fix logic for previously configured conffiles, so that the shared
conffile checks actually work on reinstallation. Closes: #684776
* Avoid info database corruption and bogus accesses on unknown format
values, by always reading the format file and validating it.
* Clarify that the most probable reason for multiarch database
inconsistencies is due to upgrades from unofficial dpkg versions.
* Only satisfy a dependency on a “Multi-Arch: foreign” if arch-unqualified.
* Take architecture into account in virtual packages on remove and
configure dpkg actions. Closes: #683411
* Update update-alternatives --query format and examples in man page to
match the implementation.
* Add two missing 3rd person ‘s’ in dpkg-gensymbols(1). Closes: #689863
Thanks to Paul Menzel <pm.debian@googlemail.com>.
* Fix regression on old-style binNMUs for packages that specify an
explicit binary version to dpkg-gencontrol, by always fixing up the
source version. Closes: #690823

about the Perl version. Instead of baking the version number into the

something in lang/perl5, but there isn't any obvious way to do that.
But at least now this only has to be updated in one place when Perl

The rationale for changing this from "tech-pkg" to "pkgsrc-users" is
that it implies that any user can try to maintain the package (by
submitting patches to the mailing list). Since the folks most likely
to care about the package are the folks that want to use it or are
already using it, this would leverage the energy of users who aren't
