Package: lintian Version: 2.5.49 Severity: wishlist I'm currently working on tools and automation to package Rust packages (called "crates"). The current plan for doing so involves packaging the upstream crate source in a subdirectory of /usr/share/cargo/registry/. This results in a couple of lintian issues, and I'd like to address those in lintian rather than adding overrides to a large number of packages.
Can you please exclude files under /usr/share/cargo/registry/ from the following lintian checks? - extra-license-file (the upstream crate source includes licenses). - package-contains-vcs-control-file (some crates include .gitignore or .gitattributes files, and I've seen package build systems that read .gitignore at build time). Thanks, Josh Triplett
