Package: lintian lintian/checks/scripts currently lists "pike", "pike7", and "pike7.6" as valid interpreters, associating them with packages of the same names.
Currently, the available Pike interpreters are /usr/bin/pike7.6, provided by pike7.6-core, and /usr/bin/pike7.7, provided by pike7.7-core. /usr/bin/pike is managed by the alternatives system and could point to either - it should probably not be used by a packaged script. The previous maintainer was going to rename pike7.7 as pike7.8, which is what it will become when upstream releases it as stable, and I intend to follow that track soon. Pike needs a policy similar to Python's or Perl's with a "default version", so things might change, but in the meantime, can you update Lintian in accordance with the above information? -- Magnus Holmgren New pike* (co)maintainer
