package fakeroot severity 393983 serious thanks Policy (version 3.8.0.1) §10.2 states:
Shared object files (often .so files) that are not public
libraries, that is, they are not meant to be linked to by third
party executables (binaries of other packages), should be
installed in subdirectories of the /usr/lib directory. Such files
are exempt from the rules that govern ordinary shared libraries,
except that they must not be installed executable and should be
stripped.
This bug reports a violation of that policy, specifically that “Such
files … must not be installed executable”.
A bug report for violating a “must” policy directive is reporting a
'serious' severity bug. Without an explanation in the bug report for
why this is not violating the above “must” policy directive, please
leave its severity at 'serious'.
