I strongly suspect that this would be grossly excessive in many cases; the default is "mac" for a reason. "man --warnings" is meant to be a reasonable default for Lintian (I implemented it with that intent), and it seems to me to be missing the point for Lintian to then override the warning set to something else. At most, additional categories should be emitted only at lower Lintian tag severity levels. But it's probably quite tricky to sort out the different categories reliably in Lintian. -- Colin Watson [[email protected]] -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
