That's correct. "new-package-should-close-itp-bug" is a tag issued for *binary* packages, not source packages, so it needs to be in the binary override file. fwiw, the fact that the lintian output doesn't contain "source:" is also a give away :-) Regards, Adam -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
