It cannot find #907422 due to https://sources.debian.org/src/lintian/2.5.99/data/common/dbg-pkg/#L4 > Regards, cu Adrian -- "Is there not promise of rain?"

Thank you in advance. Both -dbg and -dbgsym are built for this package. Only one should be built for the debug symbols. Usually the -dbg should be dropped in favour of the -dbgsym. In some cases (e.g. for Python modules) the -dbg contains more than just the debug symbols. In these cases the -dbgsym should not be built. > Regards, cu Adrian -- "Is there not promise of rain?"

Bug#907423: lintian should give an error when both foo-dbg and foo-dbgsym are built
Package: lintian Version: 2.5.98 Severity: normal #907362 and #907422 are examples of this problem. Note that it is not always the -dbg that is wrong, e.g. #907422 is a python case where the -dbgsym are likely bogus.
