Hello Helmut. Do not suspect! Just check it :-) Inspired by debbisect, I wrote this tiny script to check nocheck annotations: https://people.debian.org/~sanvila/check-nocheck/ For this package, this is the output in the logfile: ==== Checking annotations for package gnome-2048 ==== Trying with all build-dependencies Build worked Trying without appstream Build worked, it is ok to keep appstream <!nocheck> Trying without desktop-file-utils Build did NOT work, desktop-file-utils should not have <!nocheck> ==== build-dependencies that should drop their <!nocheck> annotation ==== desktop-file-utils [ This package (gnome-2048) had only two <!nocheck> annotations, and it was easy, but for more complex packages the script may save some time ]. Thanks.
