Bug#350114: Please add ubuntu upload targets to frontend/lintian
Reinhard Tartler [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: in order to get rid of this patch in ubuntu, please include it in the next lintian upload. Attached the patch we have in ubuntus lintian. That doesn't seem right. We can assume that someone packaging on a Debian system (i.e. running lintian from Debian) is preparing a Debian package, and someone on Ubuntu, running Ubuntu's lintian, is targetting Ubuntu. Therefore, the check as-is is valid, and quite useful: if someone is confused and puts an Ubuntu target in a Debian package, this will be detected by lintian.

Yeah, that was my reaction too -- I think this is one of those places where Debian and Ubuntu really want to be (slightly) distinct. -- Russ Allbery ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) http://www.eyrie.org/~eagle/ -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe.
