Package: ftp.debian.org
Severity: normal
Hi,
please update lintian on ftp-master to the version from backports. The
currently used version from stable does not understand the current
overrides format (especially file names are now often encloded in []),
causing overrides for autoreject tags to be ignored and uploads to NEW
getting autorejected, e.g.
nvidia-graphics-drivers_510.85.02-6_amd64.changes REJECTED
libnvidia-ptxjitcompiler1: lintian output: 'embedded-library
usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/nvidia/current/libnvidia-ptxjitcompiler.so.510.85.02:
zlib', automatically rejected package.
libnvidia-ptxjitcompiler1: If you have a good reason, you may override this
lintian tag.
nvidia-driver-bin: lintian output: 'embedded-library
usr/lib/nvidia/current/nvidia-debugdump: zlib', automatically rejected package.
nvidia-driver-bin: If you have a good reason, you may override this lintian tag.
nvidia-smi: lintian output: 'embedded-library
usr/lib/nvidia/current/nvidia-smi: zlib', automatically rejected package.
nvidia-smi: If you have a good reason, you may override this lintian tag.
firmware-nvidia-gsp: lintian output: 'statically-linked-binary
lib/firmware/nvidia/510.85.02/gsp.bin', automatically rejected package.
firmware-nvidia-gsp: If you have a good reason, you may override this lintian
tag.
while these (generated) overrides exist:
debian/libnvidia-ptxjitcompiler1.lintian-overrides:embedded-library zlib
[usr/lib*/libnvidia-ptxjitcompiler.so.510.85.02]
debian/nvidia-driver-bin.lintian-overrides:embedded-library zlib
[usr/lib/nvidia/current/nvidia-debugdump]
debian/nvidia-smi.lintian-overrides:embedded-library zlib
[usr/lib/nvidia/current/nvidia-smi]
debian/firmware-nvidia-gsp.lintian-overrides:statically-linked-binary
[lib/firmware/nvidia/510.85.02/gsp.bin]

Closing as this is no longer relevant. The archive no longer runs
lintian in the remaining cases (sourceful uploads) for various reasons.
