Hello list, i prepared a copyright file on [1].
A debuild gives me a: I: ignore-me source: unused-file-paragraph-in-dep5-copyright paragraph at line 12 N: N: The Files paragraph in debian/copyright is superfluous as it is never N: used to match any files. You should be able to safely remove it. N: N: Refer to N: https://www.debian.org/doc/packaging-manuals/copyright-format/1.0 for N: details. N: N: Severity: minor, Certainty: possible N: N: Check: source-copyright, Type: source N: I: ignore-me source: unused-file-paragraph-in-dep5-copyright paragraph at line 16 I: ignore-me source: unused-file-paragraph-in-dep5-copyright paragraph at line 20 I: ignore-me source: unused-file-paragraph-in-dep5-copyright paragraph at line 24 I: ignore-me source: unused-file-paragraph-in-dep5-copyright paragraph at line 28 I: ignore-me source: unused-file-paragraph-in-dep5-copyright paragraph at line 34 I: ignore-me source: unused-file-paragraph-in-dep5-copyright paragraph at line 6 But if i understand it right, it uses the field in the same way, as [2] it describes. Can anyone tell me more? [1] https://git.launchpad.net/~ignore-me/ignore-me/+git/packaging/tree/ debian/debian/copyright [2] https://www.debian.org/doc/packaging-manuals/copyright-format/1.0/
