22.7 Version 4.1.3
==================

Released December, 2017.

5.6.26

     URLs given in ‘VCS-*’ headers should use a scheme that provides
     confidentiality (‘https’, for example) if the VCS repository
     supports it.  ‘[vcs-field-uses-insecure-uri]’

7.8

     ‘Built-Using’ should be used exactly when there are license or DFSG
     requirements to retain full source code in the archive.
     Previously, the description of the field implied it was needed in
     other cases too.

9.1.1

     ‘libc’ may also install files in ‘/lib64’.

9.3.3.1

     If a package’s daemon should not be autostarted unless the local
     administrator has explicitly requested it, the package’s ‘postinst’
     should use the new ‘defaults-disabled’ option of ‘update-rc.d’.

     The old method of including ‘DISABLED=yes’ in the package’s
     ‘/etc/default’ file should not be used.

11.4

     Clarify that programs may invoke either ‘/usr/bin/editor’ and
     ‘/usr/bin/pager’ directly, or use ‘editor’ and ‘pager’ and rely on
     PATH.

12.5

     The Creative Commons CC0 1.0 Universal license (CC0-1.0) is now
     included in ‘/usr/share/common-licenses’ and does not need to be
     copied verbatim in the package ‘copyright’ file.
