--- Begin Message ---Package: lintian Version: 1.22.4 Severity: wishlist Hello Joy, Several packages use a braindead maintainer. That cause them to have manpage as follow: (kreatecd, 3dwm-geoclient) KREATECD(SECTION) KREATECD(SECTION) NAME kreatecd - program to do something SYNOPSIS kreatecd [options] files... bar [options] files... DESCRIPTION This manual page documents briefly the kreatecd and bar commands. This manual page was written for the Debian GNU/Linux distribution because the original program does not have a manual page. Instead, it has doc- umentation in the GNU Info format; see below. kreatecd is a program that... OPTIONS These programs follow the usual GNU command line syntax, with long options starting with two dashes (`-'). A summary of options is included below. For a complete description, see the Info files. -h, --help Show summary of options. -v, --version Show version of program. SEE ALSO bar(1), baz(1). The programs are documented fully by The Rise and Fall of a Fooish Bar, available via the Info system. AUTHOR This manual page was written by Christophe Prud'homme <prud- [EMAIL PROTECTED]>, for the Debian GNU/Linux system (but may be used by oth- ers). October 22, 2001 KREATECD(SECTION) Since adding a check for braindead maintainers would be hard, you could instead detect if the manpage is such a template.

The "stability of output" release. . * checks/binaries: + [RA] Sort the package SONAMEs to provide more stable lintian tags. Patch from Cyril Brulebois. (Closes: #428681) * checks/files{.desc,}: + [RA] Limit the Zope license exception to only .dtml, .pt, and .cpt files. Thanks, Bernd Zeimetz. + [RA] Sort the files listed in package-contains-hardlink so that the lintian output is stable regardless of the hash order of the directory when the tar file was built. + [RA] Don't incorrectly skip all other file location checks for hard links. + [RA] Check for files installed in /usr/lib/sgml. This transition was probably completed long ago, but checking for regression can't hurt. (Closes: #90019) * checks/manpages{.desc,}: + [RA] Check for dh_make man page templates (by looking for the template whatis entry). Thanks, Bill Allombert. (Closes: #173583) * checks/menus: + [RA] Avoid a quadratic search of the files in the package on doc-base files that list tons of files individually. This speeds up a lintian check of openoffice.org-dev-doc enormously. * checks/po-debconf: + [RA] Close the template file handle between files so that the line numbers for translated default fields are correct. * checks/rules{.desc,}: + [RA] Check for ignoring all errors from make clean or make distclean and recommend skipping the call if there's no Makefile instead. Thanks, Branden Robinson. (Closes: #325372) * checks/scripts{.desc,}: + [RA] Add Octave as an interpreter, and allow both versioned and unversioned forms. Thanks, Sebastian Harl. (Closes: #428403) + [RA] Check for deprecated install-sgmlcatalog usage. * checks/shared_libs: + [RA] Report the correct file for shlib-with-nonpic-code rather than the last shlib in the package. (Closes: #429840, #429528) . * frontend/lintian: + [RA] Don't require -v in order to report unused overrides; they're already info-level tags, which is enough hiding. + [RA] Remove old dead unused override code. . * reporting/html_reports: + [RA] Fix a Perl warning when generating the clean maintainer pages. . * unpack/unpack-binpkg-l1: + [RA] Sort the output of tar tfv by filename so that the lintian output will be stable regardless of the hash order of the directory when the tar file was built.
