dpkg (1.15.8.5) unstable; urgency=low

  [ Guillem Jover ]
  * Do not print a warning when parsing status or status log files on
    half-installed packages w/o a Description or Maintainer field, as
    this happens normally when the package was never installed before.
    Closes: #594167
  * Improve git format documentation in dpkg-source(1).
    Thanks to Joey Hess, based on a patch by Tanguy Ortolo.
  * Clarify effect of “dpkg --purge” on homedir files in dpkg(1).
    Thanks to The Fungi <email address hidden>. Closes: #593628
  * Add gettext plurals infrastructure support.
  * Add gettext messages for plural forms. Closes: #594218
  * Fix possible but improbable segfault in update-alternatives in case
    the master file name contains a format string specifier. Reported by
    Sandro Cazzaniga.
  * Fix realloc usage on compat scandir() implementation.

  [ Raphaël Hertzog ]
  * Fix dpkg-genchanges to not split the short description in the middle of a
    UTF8 character. Closes: #593442
  * Drop -k parameter from the tar call used by dpkg-source to extract
    tarballs. Upstream binary files modified by the packager were not properly
    installed due to this. Thanks to James Westby for the report.
    Closes: #594440
  * Make dpkg Breaks: dpkg-dev (<< 1.15.8) so that older versions of dpkg-dev
    that did not depend on libdpkg-perl must be upgraded together with dpkg.
