Hi A quick side note to this; if the tag in question is a non-fatal auto-reject tag[1], you may still need the old override (with the initial slash). Last I heard (16th of April[2]) the machine processing uploads still had Lintian 2.4.3. ~Niels [1] One of the tags that will cause your package to be auto-rejected on upload unless it has been overridden.
