Package: lintian Version: 2.5.7 Severity: wishlist Hey,
as discussed quickly on irc, I had an issue with a package of mine, where overrides weren't correctly picked up by lintian, and as a result I got: W: liblightdm-gobject-1-0: hardening-no-fortify-functions usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/liblightdm-gobject-1.so.0.0.0 W: liblightdm-qt-2-0: hardening-no-stackprotector usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/liblightdm-qt-2.so.0.0.0 E: lightdm: malformed-override liblightdm-gobject-1-0: hardening-no-fortify-functions usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/liblightdm-gobject-1.so.0.0.0 E: lightdm: malformed-override liblightdm-qt-2-0: hardening-no-stackprotector usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/liblightdm-qt-2.so.0.0.0 It turns out what was wrong was the package name, but that's something which could have been shown by lintian (in -i output for example). It'd help the debugging.
