Package: pyg
Version: 0.9.6-4.1
Severity: normal
Tags: patch


Debian policy recommends that all binary packages contain an 'md5sums'
control file. The following command shows that a package built from
this source package does not contain this file.

    $ lintian --info --display-info --check-part md5sums 
../pyg_0.9.6-4.1_powerpc.deb
    I: pyg: no-md5sums-control-file
    N:
    N:   This package does not contain an md5sums control file. This control
    N:   file listing the MD5 checksums of the contents of the package is not
    N:   required, but if present debsums can use it to verify that no files
    N:   shipped with your package have been modified. Providing it is
    N:   recommended.
    N:   
    N:   If you are using debhelper to create your package, just add a call to
    N:   dh_md5sums at the end of your binary-indep or binary-arch target,
    N:   right before dh_builddeb.
    N:

The attached patch changes the 'debian/rules' file to generate the
'md5sums' file for this package, and causes the above command to run
cleanly (with no output).

If there is a specific reason for avoiding the recommended 'md5sums'
file and not applying this patch or something similar, could you
please explain in this bug entry.
