Linda has way too much false-positives (the above is just
one example) which is really bad.
bugs.debian.org/linda vs bugs.debian.org/lintian does look
like this as well.
There are only 5 bugs in linda:
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/pkgreport.cgi?which=src&data=linda&archive=no&pend-exc=pending-fixed&pend-exc=fixed&pend-exc=done&sev-inc=important&sev-inc=normal
By the way, looks like the BTS is kind of buggy:
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/pkgreport.cgi?which=src&data=linda&archive=no&repeatmerged=no&version=&dist=unstable&pend-exc=pending-fixed&pend-exc=fixed&pend-exc=done&sev-exc=wishlist&sev-exc=fixed&exclude=fixed&exclude=fixed-in-experimental&exclude=fixed-upstream
That should normally exclude all those bugs marked as done, but it
isn't excluding them.
Cheers
Nico
