Changelog
dpkg (1.17.12) unstable; urgency=low
[ Guillem Jover ]
* Only build the compatibility selinux code if libselinux is available or
the user requested it. Also fixes build failures on non-Linux systems.
Closes: #757637
* Documentation:
- Add a short description to each virtual field in dpkg-query(1), and
mention the version they got introduced in dpkg.
- Fix formatting of last paragraphs inside dselect(1) --color description.
* Rework dselect columns code, to make it easier to maintain and read.
* Add new architecture columns to dselect package list view. The new
columns, shown by default, can be turned off with the new ‘A’ key,
or bound to another key via the new “archdisplay” keybinding.
* Fix a descriptor leak on dselect subprocesses when --debug is used.
* Use «tar --format=gnu» when creating source archives. This makes sure we
get a deterministic output format, regardless of what tar defaults to.
Thanks to Jan Blunck <email address hidden>..
* Use perl's length instead of defined when checking some environment
variables, if we require them to have content.
* Allow specifying the same build type option multiple times in
dpkg-buildpackage and dpkg-genchanges. There seems to be scripts with
such invocations in the wild. Closes: #757795
