dpkg (1.18.15) unstable; urgency=medium
[ Guillem Jover ]
* Improve PIE flags support:
- Do not enable PIE when linking static programs. glibc-based systems
do not support this combination and produce very bogus output.
Proposed by Szabolcs Nagy <nsz@port70.net>. Closes: #843714
* On source builds add 'source' to the Architecture field in the
.buildinfo file in dpkg-genbuildinfo.
* Add new Build-Date field to .buildinfo files.
* Generate deterministic .buildinfo filenames in dpkg-genbuildinfo,
following the same pattern as used for .changes files.
* Bump .buildinfo Format to version 0.2.
* Change dpkg-buildpackage -j and -J on “auto” mode to fallback to serial
execution when we cannot infer the number of online processors on
unsupported or exotic systems. This should be a safer mode of operation.
Proposed by Simon McVittie <smcv@debian.org>.
* Only preallocate disk size in dpkg for unpacked files bigger than 16 KiB.
Closes: #824636
* Perl modules:
- Validate architecture arguments in Dpkg::Deps deps_parse().
Prompted by Johannes Schauer <josch@debian.org>.
* Documentation:
- Escape dashes in field names in dpkg-buildinfo(1).
* Test suite:
- Mark partially documented POD modules as TAP TODO.
[ Updated man pages translations ]
* German (Helge Kreutzmann).
