Package: lintian Version: 2.3.1 Severity: minor Hi
Checking a package (in my case dh-make-perl and libmodule-build-perl) I get a warning from lintian: Use of uninitialized value $next in pattern match (m//) at /usr/share/lintian/checks/changelog-file line 179, <IN> line 6. It is related to the NEWS file only having one entry, and thus $next uninitialized?
