You will at least need all of Lintian's dependencies, which I suspect include a bunch of Debian-only packages (at least Debian-only at the moment). Other ones that are probably not packaged for CentOS at the moment include hardening-includes, intltool-debian, libdpkg-perl, and libparse-debianchangelog-perl (although the last would be fairly trivial to package, I think). All of this would run with some work, but the level of work will vary. Also note that (not listed in the package dependencies because it's essential) Lintian uses dpkg during the unpack process, so you will need dpkg installed regardless to run Lintian. (Therefore, getting dpkg-source available so that you can build the package with dpkg-buildpackage isn't really an additional burden.) -- Russ Allbery ([email protected]) <http://www.eyrie.org/~eagle/> -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
