Package: lintian Version: 2.31.0 Severity: important Hi,
rebuilding lintian/2.31.0 for stretch-backports (without any further changes) fails due to several tests failing with Cannot parse line Argument "1/8" isn't numeric in numeric eq (==) at /build/lintian-2.31.0/lib/Lintian/Processable/Pool.pm line 348. This worked fine until 2.29.0 (actually I usually used the package from sid on stretch-backports, but that spews the same error when running, so I tried rebuilding this time). There is probably some dependency that needs its version bumped. [...] ------- Runner starts here ------- Running test at /build/lintian-2.31.0/debian/test-out/tags/tracking/generic-dh-make-2005.
