Lintian includes non-free packages now. > I had requested a pedantic tag listing package thas put 1.0 in > debian/source/format but Russ Alberry did not want it, it's too soon > according to him. Basically, I try to avoid having Lintian take a position on a point of active controversy, since from the Lintian perspective this just makes people annoyed at Lintian and leads to them not using it, which hurts the project for all the things that Lintian looks at that aren't controversial. Because of that, Lintian tends to be fairly conservative on anything that people seem to be debating (although we don't always manage). -- Russ Allbery ([email protected]) <http://www.eyrie.org/~eagle/> -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
