Changelog
pkgbinarymangler (96) oneiric; urgency=low
* pkgstripfiles: Symlink identical documentation to depending packages. This
was ported from cdbs' debhelper.mk, but makes more sense here because more
packages use dh7 these days, we want to reduce the cdbs delta to Debian,
and we want to centralize all our Ubuntu specific package mangling to one
place to reduce confusion. This can be suppressed by setting
$NO_DOC_PKG_MANGLE, or $CDBS_NO_DOC_SYMLINKING for backwards
compatibility. (First part of LP #595008)
* pkgstriptranslations: Symlink identical GNOME help files (which often
happens for images which are just copied verbatim from C, but are not
actually translated). In the new test case for this also check that the
static translation tarball is correct. This provides another Ubuntu
specific general packaging change which previously was done in cdbs'
debhelper.mk. (LP: #595008)
* pkgstripfiles: Break down into separate functions, to make the code easier
to read and maintain.
* test/run: Simplify code with recently introduced sed_control() helper
method.
* test/run: Replace obsolete assert_() and failIf() calls with assertTrue()
and assertFalse().
* test/run, test/pickle_argv: Port to Python 3. Change build dependency from
python to python3.
