    acute-accent-in-manual-page: Explain why '\\' is indeed a FP but still wrong
    
    This is a no-op. Just extend the tag description with a paragraph
    about this very specific piece of wrong groff code which is also
    triggering this tag despite being no acute accent.
    
    Closes: #966803, #1014421
    
    Thanks: Thorsten Glaser
    
    Also fix some grammar and formatting.

    Add mo as extensions of binary files
    
    They usually represent compiled GNU gettext translations; while it is
    not a good practice to ship them in source packages, they are in few
    sources, and we cannot check them for lines anyway.

    very-long-line-length-in-source-file: Skip if file suffix identifies content as JSON.
    
    Long lines are not uncommon there, especially if it's the JSON Lines
    format (https://jsonlines.org/; .jsonl file suffix) where each JSON
    data set is required to be on a single line.

    Lintian::Check::Images::Filenames: Minor regexp performance improvements

commit 1db63cf37affcbb606d84eb03da8d4f88a899f2f
Author: Axel Beckert <abe@deuxchevaux.org>
Date:   Sun Jul 3 12:34:43 2022 +0200

    very-long-line-length-in-source-file: Skip if "file" returns anything with "image" or "bitmap" in it (partially fixes #1014255)
    
    We currently can't check for MIME types as Lintian currently doesn't
    gather them, just the textual description of the file format.
    
    MIME types though would make things easier here, see #1014255, but
    doing a second "file" run over all files would make things even more
    slower, so let's only do that if file can output both types of data at
    the same time.
    
    And according to the Debian maintainer of "file", outputting the MIME
    type in addition with Lintian's currently used "human readable" output
    of "file" seems currently not possible.

Author: Axel Beckert <abe@deuxchevaux.org>
Date:   Sun Jul 3 12:18:15 2022 +0200

    very-long-line-length-in-source-file: Check for SVG content before counting line lengths
    
    Should be faster that way because file only looks at a few lines at the beginning.

commit 070f7f913cb98c54a4d7a3237f725c6cbf377fe4

    Declare some obvious cases in lintian's testsuite to be amd64 only. (c.f. #1013331)
    
    This hopefully fixes most autopkgtest issues on non-amd64
    architectures.
    
    There's though one check in #1013331 which doesn't seem to be directly
    related to architecture names in emitted tags and hence needs more
    investigation:
    
    --- ../../autopkgtest_tmp/build-and-evaluate-test-packages/eval/checks/files/contents/bin-sbin-confusion-in-elf/hints.specified.calibrated
    +++ ../../autopkgtest_tmp/build-and-evaluate-test-packages/eval/checks/files/contents/bin-sbin-confusion-in-elf/hints.actual.parsed
    +bin-sbin-confusion-in-elf (binary): bin-sbin-mismatch sbin/our-script -> usr/bin/our-script [usr/bin/calls-sbin]
    +bin-sbin-confusion-in-elf (binary): bin-sbin-mismatch bin/our-script -> usr/bin/our-script [usr/bin/calls-sbin]
    
    Expected was only this line:
    
    bin-sbin-confusion-in-elf (binary): bin-sbin-mismatch usr/sbin/our-script -> usr/bin/our-script [usr/bin/calls-sbin]
    
    So this is once again likely a difference caused by the IMHO
    completely unnecessary and nothing but troubles causing usrmerge.
    Hence it needs to be solved elsewhere.
