Source: lintian Severity: normal Dear lintian maintainers:
The current debian-policy (4.5.0.2) states in Section 4.16. Missing
sources:
There is an optional convention to organise the contents of "debian
/missing-sources" in the following way. For a sourceless file "foo"
in the subdirectory "bar" of the upstream tarball, where the source of
"foo" has extension "baz", the source is to be located at "debian
/missing-sources/bar/foo.baz". For example, according to this
convention, the C source code of an executable "checksum/util" is to
be located at "debian/missing-sources/checksum/util.c".
knot-resolver 5.1.1 includes the minified
modules/http/static/dygraph.min.js, and I placed then its source file
in: debian/missing-sources/modules/http/static/dygraph.js
as you can see in
https://salsa.debian.org/dns-team/knot-resolver/-/commit/52ca961e3c3e5eacc4c85a65fe66919c0eed56ca
but lintian complains about this very source file:
E: knot-resolver source: source-is-missing
debian/missing-sources/modules/http/static/dygraph.js line length is 847
characters (>512)
c.f. https://salsa.debian.org/dns-team/knot-resolver/-/jobs/797179
moving dygraph.js to debian/missing-sources/dygraph.js makes lintian
happier:
https://salsa.debian.org/dns-team/knot-resolver/-/commit/0085ab75be975a2bd478743fe14ba181509e0e80
https://salsa.debian.org/dns-team/knot-resolver/-/jobs/797196
Please, tell me if my interpretation of the optional convention is
wrong.
Cheers,
