--- Begin Message ---Package: lintian Version: 2.5.87 Severity: normal The new check for header-has-overly-generic-name seems too sensitive: > E: libmutter-2-dev: header-has-overly-generic-name > usr/include/mutter/meta/util.h This one is canonically included as <meta/util.h> while compiling with `pkg-config --cflags libmutter-2`, which is just as well-namespaced as any other header. (Mutter headers are <meta/*> for historical reasons: it's a descendant of the GNOME 2 window manager, Metacity.) > E: libmutter-2-dev: header-has-overly-generic-name > usr/include/mutter/clutter-2/cally/cally-util.h > E: libmutter-2-dev: header-has-overly-generic-name > usr/include/mutter/clutter-2/clutter/deprecated/clutter-util.h Those are definitely not a problem - they can be accused of many things, but insufficient namespacing is not among them :-) Please drop the certainty for this tag, or make the regex tighter. smcv -- System Information: Debian Release: buster/sid APT prefers unstable-debug APT policy: (500, 'unstable-debug'), (500, 'buildd-unstable'), (500, 'unstable'), (500, 'testing'), (500, 'stable'), (1, 'experimental-debug'), (1, 'buildd-experimental'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Foreign Architectures: i386 Kernel: Linux 4.16.0-1-amd64 (SMP w/4 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_GB.utf8, LC_CTYPE=en_GB.utf8 (charmap=UTF-8), LANGUAGE=en_GB:en (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) LSM: AppArmor: enabled Versions of packages lintian depends on: ii binutils 2.30-20 ii bzip2 1.0.6-8.1 ii diffstat 1.61-1+b1 ii dpkg 1.19.0.5+b1 ii file 1:5.33-2 ii gettext 0.19.8.1-6+b1 ii intltool-debian 0.35.0+20060710.4 ii libapt-pkg-perl 0.1.34 ii libarchive-zip-perl 1.60-1 ii libclass-accessor-perl 0.51-1 ii libclone-perl 0.39-1 ii libdpkg-perl 1.19.0.5 ii libemail-valid-perl 1.202-1 ii libfile-basedir-perl 0.08-1 ii libipc-run-perl 0.99-1 ii liblist-moreutils-perl 0.416-1+b3 ii libparse-debianchangelog-perl 1.2.0-12 ii libtext-levenshtein-perl 0.13-1 ii libtimedate-perl 2.3000-2 ii liburi-perl 1.74-1 ii libxml-simple-perl 2.25-1 ii libyaml-libyaml-perl 0.69+repack-1 ii man-db 2.8.3-2 ii patchutils 0.3.4-2 ii perl [libdigest-sha-perl] 5.26.2-5 ii t1utils 1.41-2 ii xz-utils 5.2.2-1.3 Versions of packages lintian recommends: ii libperlio-gzip-perl 0.19-1+b4 Versions of packages lintian suggests: ii binutils-multiarch 2.30-20 ii dpkg-dev 1.19.0.5 ii libhtml-parser-perl 3.72-3+b2 ii libtext-template-perl 1.53-1 -- no debconf information
