sigh. so IMNSHO now lintian *and* dpkg are buggy. Or point me to policy which prohibits files pointing to /dev/null. This worked for years. (I haven't cloned the dpkg bug yet, as I believed Guillem would upload a fix quickly and thus I wanted to prevent busy paperwork. IMO the bug should be cloned and the severity raised to serious for the clone.) -- cheers, Holger ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- holger@(debian|reproducible-builds|layer-acht).org PGP fingerprint: B8BF 5413 7B09 D35C F026 FE9D 091A B856 069A AA1C
