--- Begin Message ---Package: lintian Version: 2.5.121 Severity: minor Dear Maintainer, The tag `description-too-long` says The first line of the "Description:" must not exceed 80 characters. which, at least to me, says that exactly 80 characters is allowed. But the actual section in Policy says that the line must be strictly less than 80, and the actual lintian check agrees with Policy. Changing the tag text to The first line of the "Description:" must be less than 80 characters. makes this much clearer and correct. I will submit a MR on salsa once I have a bug number. -- System Information: Debian Release: buster/sid APT prefers testing-debug APT policy: (900, 'testing-debug'), (900, 'testing'), (800, 'unstable-debug'), (800, 'unstable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Foreign Architectures: i386 Kernel: Linux 4.19.0-1-amd64 (SMP w/8 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8), LANGUAGE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /usr/bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) LSM: AppArmor: enabled Versions of packages lintian depends on: ii binutils 2.31.1-11 ii bzip2 1.0.6-9 ii diffstat 1.62-1 ii dpkg 1.19.2 ii dpkg-dev 1.19.2 ii file 1:5.34-2 ii gettext 0.19.8.1-9 ii gpg 2.2.12-1 ii intltool-debian 0.35.0+20060710.4 ii libapt-pkg-perl 0.1.34+b1 ii libarchive-zip-perl 1.64-1 ii libcgi-pm-perl 4.40-1 ii libclass-accessor-perl 0.51-1 ii libclone-perl 0.41-1+b1 pn libdigest-sha-perl <none> ii libdpkg-perl 1.19.2 ii libemail-valid-perl 1.202-1 ii libfile-basedir-perl 0.08-1 ii libipc-run-perl 20180523.0-1 ii liblist-moreutils-perl 0.416-1+b4 ii libparse-debianchangelog-perl 1.2.0-13 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 0.76+repack-1 ii man-db 2.8.5-1 ii patchutils 0.3.4-2 ii perl 5.28.1-3 ii t1utils 1.41-3 ii xz-utils 5.2.2-1.3 Versions of packages lintian recommends: ii libperlio-gzip-perl 0.19-1+b5 Versions of packages lintian suggests: pn binutils-multiarch <none> ii libhtml-parser-perl 3.72-3+b3 ii libtext-template-perl 1.53-1 -- no debconf information
