 Please warn if a package ships files directly under
 /usr/share/mime/. Those files are meant to be automatically
 generated by triggers of the shared-mime-info package.

Please also catch /usr/share/applications/mimeinfo.cache which is
generated by update-desktop-database.

+1, I got bitten by this this morning and was surprised that lintian
didn't catch it (like it catches /usr/share/info/dir).

Bug#564713: Please add check for end of lines for files in debian

Package: lintian
Version: 2.3.1
Severity: wishlist

Hi

just facing this issue on -mentors, I think it would be useful if
lintian would cry if a file in debian/ is using DOS end of lines. I'm not
sure if it can be really safely applied to all files in debian/, but at
least changelog, control and rules are good candidates for this check.

Bug#564740: lintian: treats useable as a spelling error.

2010-01-11 Thread Vagrant Cascadian
Package: lintian
Version: 2.3.1
Severity: minor

i get several lintian warnings with regards to the spelling of useable:

  W: qemu-user-static: spelling-error-in-changelog useable usable

according to wordnet, at least, useable and usable are synonyms of each
other. http://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/usable also lists useable as an
alternate form.

i don't know if lintian is in a better position to be an authorative
source of the english language. :)

live well,
  vagrant

Usually we get the UK vs. US English problem going the other way.  :)  In
this case, the problem is that useable is wrong in US English according to
Merriam-Webster but permitted in UK English by the OED.

I'll remove this correction.
