There are a lot of legitimate reasons why shared libraries call exit(), plus there are legitimate reasons why shared library source includes a call to exit() that isn't reachable (something that Lintian cannot detect), such as this one. There are huge false positive problems with the tag, which is why it's still experimental. -- Russ Allbery ([email protected]) <http://www.eyrie.org/~eagle/> -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
