Package: lintian Version: 2.5.5 Severity: minor Tags: patch Hi,
Please see attached patch: current Lintian copyright-format check descriptions refer the user to dep.debian.org for more information; this should be changed to the www.debian.org URL. BTW, it may make sense to remove the 'dep5' from the check names, since it's no longer a dep, but that has wider implications so I'll leave that up to you. Cheers, Thijs
