A lintian override would be inappropriate here. That file should not be present in the orig source or in the source + debian diff. Lintian overrides are for cases where lintian is correctly detecting the situation, but due to circumstances the situation is not an error. You should not use lintian overrides to hide genuine errors, but let them be detected as a reminder to fix them. -- - mdz -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
