dpkg 1.19.0.5ubuntu1 source package in Ubuntu

Changelog

dpkg (1.19.0.5ubuntu1) bionic; urgency=medium

  * Merge from current Debian testing; remaining Ubuntu changes:
    - Change native source version/format mismatch errors into warnings
      until the dust settles on Debian bug 737634 about override options.
    - 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.
    - Special-case arm{el,hf} ELF objects in Shlibs/Objdump.pm for multilib.
    - 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 the dpkg trigger database.
    - Apply a workaround from mvo to consider ^rc packages as multiarch,
      during the dpkg consistency checks. (see LP: 1015567 and 1057367).
    - dpkg-gencontrol: Fix Package-Type override handling for ddeb support.

dpkg (1.19.0.5) unstable; urgency=medium

  * Fix directory traversal with dpkg-deb --raw-extract, by guaranteeing
    that the DEBIAN pathname does not exist. Closes: #879982
    Reported by Jakub Wilk <email address hidden>.
  * Rename DPKG_GAIN_ROOT_CMD to DEB_GAIN_ROOT_CMD in the R³ support, as
    the variable is expected to be set by any builder, not just dpkg. And
    introduce ephemereal backwards compatibility even though there are no
    known users.
  * Do not set DEB_GAIN_ROOT_CMD in dpkg-buildpackage when the R³ value is
    <implementations-keywords>, following the specification.
  * Specify that DEB_GAIN_ROOT_CMD in R³ should preserve the environment.
    Proposed by Josh Triplett <email address hidden>.
  * Specify new DEB_RULES_REQUIRES_ROOT variable for R³ support.
  * Declare R³ specification as "recommendation, stable" with version 1.0.
  * Architecture support:
    - Add support for riscv64 CPU. Closes: #822914
      Thanks to Manuel A. Fernandez Montecelo <email address hidden>
  * Perl modules:
    - Dpkg::Vendor::Debian: Use proper %use_feature key. This was causing perl
      errors on paths not accapted for fixdebugpath.
      Reported by Mattia Rizzolo <email address hidden>, on IRC. Closes: #881051
    - Check that $state->{seen} exists instead of $state being just defined.
      Fixes regression in dpkg-gensymbols symbols output.
      Thanks to Dmitry Shachnev <email address hidden>. Closes: #880166
    - Mark hurd-i386 as having gcc builtin PIE in Dpkg::Vendor::Debian.
      Requested by Samuel Thibault <email address hidden>.

Binary packages built by this source

dpkg: Debian package management system

 This package provides the low-level infrastructure for handling the
 installation and removal of Debian software packages.
 .
 For Debian package development tools, install dpkg-dev.

dpkg-dbgsym: debug symbols for dpkg
dpkg-dev: Debian package development tools

 This package provides the development tools (including dpkg-source)
 required to unpack, build and upload Debian source packages.
 .
 Most Debian source packages will require additional tools to build;
 for example, most packages need make and the C compiler gcc.

dselect: Debian package management front-end

 dselect is a high-level interface for managing the installation and
 removal of Debian software packages.
 .
 Many users find dselect intimidating and new users may prefer to use
 apt-based user interfaces.

dselect-dbgsym: debug symbols for dselect
libdpkg-dev: Debian package management static library

 This package provides the header files and static library necessary to
 develop software using libdpkg, the same library used internally by dpkg.
 .
 Note though, that the API is to be considered volatile, and might change
 at any time, use at your own risk.

 in dpkg-dev. They cover a wide range of functionality. Among them
 there are the following public modules:
 .
