Thanks to Olivier Berger for the report and Raphaël Hertzog for the review. (Closes: #483418) * Clarify the meaning of architecture restrictions on build dependencies in the presence of alternatives. Thanks to Guillem Jover for the explanation and review and Emilio Pozuelo Monfort and Don Armstrong for wording review. (Closes: #163666) * Change the term "category" to "archive area" when referring to main, contrib, and non-free. This is closer to the wording of the Social Contract. (Closes: #473439) * Use <user>:<group> notation rather than <user>.<group> notation in multiple places. Thanks, Kurt Roeckx. (Closes: #488039) * Fix typo in 3.8.0.0 upgrading-checklist entry. Patch from Kobayashi Noritada. (Closes: #487701) * Mention debugging packages as an explicit example of packages with extra priority. Thanks, Charles Plessy. (Closes: #491985) * Clarify that translation is only required for user-visible debconf messages. Capitalize "Debian Configuration Management Specification" uniformly. Thanks, Julian Andres Klode. (Closes: #492624) * Add --wildcards to the sample tar command in appendix B.1 for extracting the package copyright file, adjusting for new tar option behavior. Thanks, Yan Morin. (Closes: #503685) * Reword the requirement that maintainer scripts exit with a zero status on success to avoid double-negatives. * Include the full name of each menu category rather than only the portion relative to the parent heading to be clearer in long category lists. Thanks, Christoph Berg. (Closes: #511804) * Build-Depend on texlive rather than tetex-extra. texlive appears to be sufficient for how Policy uses debiandoc-sgml and pulls in far fewer packages. * Remove the postinst and prerm scripts. doc-base registration is now handled by triggers and no longer required and removal of /usr/doc links was completed long ago. * Reference GPL-2 rather than the GPL symlink in debian/copyright.
