Thank you for this remark. I noticed that grub2 overrides similar tags. We will look into it. > Since I can't really be bothered to add an override, I'll just close > this bug report then. Please feel free to use the attached patch, which I created and tested for you (although it may not cover all architectures). Lintian may offer to add overrides interactively in the future. Kind regards Felix Lechner

These files may or may not need to be marked as executable, but many packages that ship similar files override or ignore the Lintian error. For example, grub2 ship override files with the following remark: "These aren't Windows executables, and these features wouldn't be very useful." --- debian/systemd.lintian-overrides | 2 ++ 1 file changed, 2 insertions(+) diff --git a/debian/systemd.lintian-overrides b/debian/systemd.lintian-overrides index f47d5b78d6..a8dfc4a106 100644 --- a/debian/systemd.lintian-overrides +++ b/debian/systemd.lintian-overrides @@ -1,2 +1,4 @@ systemd: maintainer-script-calls-systemctl +systemd: portable-executable-missing-security-features usr/lib/systemd/boot/efi/linuxx64.efi.stub ASLR DEP/NX +systemd: portable-executable-missing-security-features usr/lib/systemd/boot/efi/systemd-bootx64.efi ASLR DEP/NX systemd: possibly-insecure-handling-of-tmp-files-in-maintainer-script -- 2.20.1
