Hi,
Based on information from #debian-ftp, which is recorded in part below, the
profile is no longer being used. It will be removed in the near future.
Please respond with objections.
Kind regards,
Felix Lechner
13:44 < 1> lechner: ftp master uses it's copy from the dak git repo.
lintian is something else
13:54 < 1> dak calls lintian with it's own tags file, so the package
included profile is not used
13:55 < lechner> i am not aware that lintian unstands the format of your
file in
https://salsa.debian.org/ftp-team/dak/blob/master/config/debian/lintian.tags
14:08 < 2> ... I think it's pretty obvious that file from dak's config is
what's being used
14:09 < 2> config/debian/dak.conf: LintianTags "/srv/
ftp-master.debian.org/dak/config/debian/lintian.tags";
14:10 < 2> which is then parsed by LintianCheck in daklib/checks.py to
generate a file for lintian --tags-from-file
14:11 < 2> and daklib/lintian.py's generate_reject_messages looks at
whether they were fatal or nonfatal in the YAML input to decide whether to
allow overrides
14:12 < lechner> thanks for clarifying. i actually like that approach much
better.
14:13 < lechner> i will remove the auto-reject profile shipped with
lintian in the near future.

Lintian stopped shipping the FTP auto-reject profile in this commit.
[1] Instead we refresh [2] the tag list from FTP Master [3] before
each release, and use the data directly. [4] Aside from other
benefits, it simplified the release procedure. [5]
Closing the bug again, for good.
In the test suite, we currently enable three options together:
--ftp-master-rejects --display-info --display-experimental
I'm not sure if the last two are needed, but I have yet to meet
someone who actually uses the -F command line option.
Kind regards
Felix Lechner
