Two improvements addressing false-positive failures on tracked-branch PRs: 1. Launchpad bug link: drop the requirement that the URL appear on a line prefixed with 'BugLink:' or 'LP:'. The check now only ensures a https://bugs.launchpad.net/... URL exists somewhere in the PR body. Avoids false negatives when authors paste the link in prose. 2. UBUNTU-local commits (e.g. 'UBUNTU: [Config] ...', 'UBUNTU: [Packaging] ...', 'UBUNTU: SAUCE: ...') have no upstream equivalent and previously triggered R6 ("not SAUCE/Revert but has no upstream reference trailer"). Add an is_ubuntu_local() helper that matches the 'UBUNTU: ' prefix; exempt those commits from R6 and R9, label them [UBUNTU] in the digest table, and verify only the Signed-off-by trailer is present.
