That's a false positive - lintian looks for calls to fortified libc functions and warns if it doesn't find any in a particular binary, but it's pretty common for a C++ program not to have any because it use C++ alternatives (std::string instead of <string.h>, <iostream> instead of <stdio.h>, etc). Look at the build log, and you'll see "-D_FORTIFY_SOURCE=2" on every g++ invocation which compiles a file (at least I do in the log from my build). The description of that lintian tag here could be clearer, but does hint at such issues: https://lintian.debian.org/tags/hardening-no-fortify-functions.html Also, note "Certainty: wild-guess". > If you are willing to upload the package with this warning then I will do the > final preparation for an upload or if you know how to fix this please tell me. > > The package can be found on my server or in the debian-science svn repository. > svn://anonscm.debian.org/debian-science/packages/gspiceui/trunk/ Sure, let me know when you've done those final preparations.
