+debian-policy (3.9.3.1) unstable; urgency=low
* Fix cross-reference to control field syntax in Policy 5.4 (source
package control files). Thanks, Jakub Wilk. (Closes: #661412)
* Update the dpkg-buildpackage -r documentation in the appendix to
reflect the current behavior of using fakeroot. Wording from Sam
Morris. (Closes: #658009)
+ * Fix the legal notice in copyright-format to not refer to a nonexistent
+ copyright notice.
+ * Embed the Debian Policy version and build date in the debconf
+ specification and the copyright-format document. We'll make
+ non-normative changes without updating other version numbers, and it's
+ good to know which version one is looking at.
+ * Fix some whitespace issues in the debconf specification articleinfo.
* Install the HTML version of upgrading-checklist in the policy.html
directory as upgrading-checklist.html so that it can be deployed on
www.debian.org in a way that will allow links to Policy sections to
* Fix mistaken word choice (prefix instead of suffix) in the upgrading
checklist entry for 3.9.3.0.
* Add some missing entries to the virtual package names list changelog.
+ * Expand package long description to include all documents.
* Remove unused substitution variable generated by the build. Thanks,
Charles Plessy.
* Strip down and reformat debian/rules to remove unused variables,
references to old files no longer included, use a more standard
layout and standardize variable names, and add comments for better
maintainability.
+ * Convert debian/copyright to copyright-format 1.0, and in the process
+ add the license information for the documents other than Policy itself
+ and the FHS. Note the implication of the GPL source code requirement
+ for distributing generated versions of the Policy documents.
