It would be nice if upstream did not do this. >> Should ccid be removed from Debian? acsccid seems like a fork of it. >> If it shouldn't be removed, please also get this documented by the >> security team, they track forks too. > > No. Can you explain your response here? > How can I get this documented by the security team?

It seems to be difficult to modify the code. Ok, this is an experimental lintian tag, you can ignore it. -- bye, pabs http://wiki.debian.org/PaulWise -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-mentors-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
