2023-10-09	multiarchanalyze.sql: do not emit an arch:all hint if provides differmultiarchhints	Helmut Grohne
	The architecture-properties package should not be arch:all, because its provides are architecture-dependent. Reported-by: Niels Thykier <niels@thykier.net>
2023-02-26	multiarchanalyze: emit a hint for rust packages needing the ma workaround	Helmut Grohne

2022-01-16	multiarchanalyze: disable transitive m-a:same hints	Helmut Grohne
	It is a long-standing disagreement with lintian. Until now, the hinter emitted hints when some package could plausibly be marked M-A:same even when dependencies couldn't. lintian complains about that when such a dependency comes from the same source package. We now follow lintian. This deletes around 2000 hints and will cause people to have to apply hints multiple times. For instance your libfoo-dev package will only be flagged after your libfooN was flagged. So be it.
2020-09-03	hide M-A:same conflicts in binNMUed packages	Helmut Grohne
	binNMUed packages are not currently reproducible, because buildds don't pass --binNMU-timestamp to sbuild. Thus they use varying SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH and produce faulty packages. As much as this is a real bug, it is not actionable by maintainers. Hide such issues for now.

2020-02-17	fix typo in maforeign_library regex	Helmut Grohne

2017-03-04	multiarchanalyze: detect some form wrong M-A:foreign	Helmut Grohne
	When an arch:any package ships a .so file in a public library search path (e.g. a symlink as many lib*-dev packages do) it most likely shouldn't be M-A:foreign. A common exception is plugins loaded into programs, so exclude that case. Many thanks to Johannes Schauer and Guillem Jover for helping discover this pattern of Multi-Arch: foreign abuse.
2016-06-12	multiarchanalyze: speed up on sqlite3 3.8.7.1	Helmut Grohne
	Since all users of archdepcandidate run the results through "exists()" or "group by", "union" vs "union all" does not make any difference to the results. On the performance side however, it avoids a b-tree merge getting the maforeign_candidate query down from hours to seconds.
2016-06-10	add a separate tool for generating hints on Multi-Arch headers	Helmut Grohne
	It builds on the core functionality of dedup, but uses a different database schema. Unlike dedup, it aborts downloading Arch:all packages early and consumes any other architecture in its entirety instead.
