Bug#485885: zsh: shell-script-fails-syntax-check ./usr/share/zsh/functions/Misc/sticky-note false positive

2008-06-12 Thread Russ Allbery
additions, the script is executed with zsh after all. It seems though that zsh -n has not quite the same semantics as for all the other shells. Due to the fix for #478192, scripts are now always checked with bash. See r1316. -- Russ Allbery ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) http://www.eyrie.org/~eagle

Bug#486145: lintian: Please downgrade depends-on-obsolete-package to warning for alternative OR'ed dependencies

2008-06-15 Thread Russ Allbery

, then the current standards version would be 'ancient'. The relevant time for aging should be the amount of time since it was obsolete, not since it was published. Hm, yes, I think I agree. -- Russ Allbery ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) http://www.eyrie.org/~eagle/ -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email
