Bug#564713: Please add check for end of lines for files in debian
Package: lintian Version: 2.3.1 Severity: wishlist -BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA1 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. - -- Michal Čihař | http://cihar.com | http://blog.cihar.com - -- System Information: Debian Release: squeeze/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (500, 'stable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 2.6.31.8-0.1-default (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=cs_CZ.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=cs_CZ.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages lintian depends on: ii binutils 2.20-5The GNU assembler, linker and bina ii diffstat 1.47-1produces graph of changes introduc ii dpkg-dev 1.15.5.6 Debian package development tools ii file 5.03-5Determines file type using magic ii gettext0.17-8GNU Internationalization utilities ii intltool-debian0.35.0+20060710.1 Help i18n of RFC822 compliant conf ii libapt-pkg-perl0.1.24Perl interface to libapt-pkg ii libclass-accessor-perl 0.34-1Perl module that automatically gen ii libipc-run-perl0.84-1Perl module for running processes ii libparse-debianchangel 1.1.1-2 parse Debian changelogs and output ii libtimedate-perl 1.1900-1 Time and date functions for Perl ii liburi-perl1.50-1module to manipulate and access UR ii man-db 2.5.6-5 on-line manual pager ii perl [libdigest-sha-pe 5.10.1-8 Larry Wall's Practical Extraction lintian recommends no packages.

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.
