Package: lintian
Version: 2.5.6ubuntu0.1
Severity: wishlist
Dear Maintainer,
*** Please consider answering these questions, where appropriate ***
I would like to avoid having to maintain multiple
If I ask Lintian to suppress a tag that is known to a later version of Lintian
but not known to the current version it will exit with an error. This can
be problematic in an environment where a package gets built on different
versions of OSes running different versions of Lintian (potentially).
Having a --list-tags option will allow me to take a set of tags I have and
create a new set that consists exclusively of tags known to the current
version of Lintian so that I do not need to maintain a separate list of
override tags for each platform I run lintian on
There could be other uses to for this option
