Package: lintian Version: 2.5.4 Severity: wishlist X-Debbugs-CC: [email protected]
In /usr/share/lintian/checks/binaries, the hash %EMBEDDED_LIBRARIES contains a list of strings to search for an the source package that "owns" the library that contains the strings. Now that tiff-3.x is in the new tiff3 source package while tiff-4.x is in the tiff source package, lintian gives an error for the libtiff4 package: libtiff4: embedded-library usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libtiff.so.4.3.6: tiff Of course, libtiff4 *is* the tiff library. Adding an exception for the tiff3 source package should do the trick, though I haven't tested it. Feel free to disregard this request -- the tiff3 source package won't live that long (hopefully just wheezy -- I plan to have it removed once we finish the tiff-4 transition), and I can work around it in the one package using a lintian override (which I'm already doing). -- System Information: Debian Release: wheezy/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (990, 'unstable'), (200, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 3.2.0-1-amd64 (SMP w/8 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages lintian depends on: ii binutils 2.22-5 ii bzip2 1.0.6-1 ii diffstat 1.55-2 ii file 5.09-2 ii gettext 0.18.1.1-5 ii intltool-debian 0.35.0+20060710.1 ii libapt-pkg-perl 0.1.25+b1 ii libclass-accessor-perl 0.34-1 ii libclone-perl 0.31-1+b2 ii libdpkg-perl 1.16.1.2 ii libemail-valid-perl 0.186-1 ii libipc-run-perl 0.90-1 ii libparse-debianchangelog-perl 1.2.0-1 ii libtimedate-perl 1.2000-1 ii liburi-perl 1.59-1 ii locales 2.13-24 ii man-db 2.6.0.2-3 ii patchutils 0.3.2-1.1 ii perl [libdigest-sha-perl] 5.14.2-6 ii unzip 6.0-5 lintian recommends no packages.
