I understand the desire to have a 100% clean package but this not only
is unnecessary it hinders Lintian's improvement as it removes some of
the incentive to file or follow-up to bugs.

I would thus highly recommend maintainers do not workaround Lintian
bugs or (fixable) false-positives by adding overrides to their
packages.


Regards,
