+ + Version 3.9.3.0 +

+ +Released February, 2012. + +

+2.4 + New archive sections education, introspection, + and metapackages added. + +5.6.8 + The Architecture field in *.dsc files may + now contain the value any all for source packages building both + architecture-independent and architecture-dependent packages. + +7.1 + If a dependency is restricted to particular architectures, the + list of architectures must be non-empty. + +9.1.1 + /run is allowed as an exception to the FHS and + replaces /var/run. /run/lock + replaces /var/lock. The FHS requirements for the older + directories apply to these directories as well. Backward compatibility + links will be maintained and packages need not switch to + referencing /run directly yet. Files in /run + should be stored in a temporary file system. + +9.1.4 + New section spelling out the requirements for packages that use + files in /run, /var/run, + or /var/lock. This generalizes information previously only + in 9.3.2. + +9.5 + Cron job file names must not contain . or + or + they will be ignored by cron. They should replace those characters + with _. If a package provides multiple cron job files in the + same directory, they should each start with the package name (possibly + modified as above), -, and then some suitable suffix. + +9.10 + Packages using doc-base do not need to call install-docs anymore. + +10.7.4 + Packages that declare the same conffile may see left-over + configuration files from each other even if they conflict. + +11.8 + The Policy rules around Motif libraries were just a special case + of normal rules for non-free dependencies and were largely obsolete, so + they have been removed. + +12.5 + debian/copyright is no longer required to list the + Debian maintainers involved in the creation of the package (although + note that the requirement to list copyright information is unchanged). + +copyright-format + Version 1.0 of the "Machine-readable debian/copyright + file" specification is included. + +mime + This separate document has been retired and and its (short) + contents merged into Policy section 9.7.
