Package: lintian Version: 2.5.22.1 Severity: normal Hi,
the dh_apache2 man page states: Packages making use of dh_apache2 should declare a build- dependency against the virtual dh-apache2 package. But Lintian claims: E: xymon source: missing-build-dependency-for-dh_-command dh_apache2 => apache2-dev N: N: The source package appears to be using a dh_ command but doesn't build N: depend on the package that actually provides it. If it uses it, it must N: build depend on it. N: N: Severity: important, Certainty: possible N: N: Check: debhelper, Type: source It seems that Lintian doesn't check the virtual package names provided by the package it wants to see in the Build-Depends for being in the Build-Depends. (apache2-dev provides dh-apache2.) -- System Information: Debian Release: jessie/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (990, 'unstable'), (600, 'testing'), (400, 'stable'), (110, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Foreign Architectures: i386 Kernel: Linux 3.12-trunk-amd64 (SMP w/1 CPU core) 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 2.24.51.20140425-1 ii bzip2 1.0.6-5 ii diffstat 1.58-1 ii file 1:5.18-1 ii gettext 0.18.3.2-1 ii hardening-includes 2.5 ii intltool-debian 0.35.0+20060710.1 ii libapt-pkg-perl 0.1.29+b1 ii libarchive-zip-perl 1.37-2 ii libclass-accessor-perl 0.34-1 ii libclone-perl 0.37-1 ii libdigest-sha-perl 5.91-1 ii libdpkg-perl 1.17.9 ii libemail-valid-perl 1.193-1 ii libfile-basedir-perl 0.03-1 ii libipc-run-perl 0.92-1 ii liblist-moreutils-perl 0.33-2 ii libparse-debianchangelog-perl 1.2.0-1 ii libtext-levenshtein-perl 0.09-1 ii libtimedate-perl 2.3000-2 ii liburi-perl 1.60-1 ii man-db 2.6.7.1-1 ii patchutils 0.3.3-1 ii perl [libdigest-sha-perl] 5.18.2-4 ii t1utils 1.37-2 Versions of packages lintian recommends: ii libautodie-perl 2.25-1 ii libperlio-gzip-perl 0.18-2 ii perl-modules [libautodie-perl] 5.18.2-4 Versions of packages lintian suggests: pn binutils-multiarch <none> ii dpkg-dev 1.17.9 ii libhtml-parser-perl 3.71-1+b1 ii libtext-template-perl 1.46-1 ii libyaml-perl 0.90-1 ii xz-utils 5.1.1alpha+20120614-2 -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-lint-maint-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
