Yeah, I agree with this problem, and it's more a generic problem in lintian that you're supposed to re-implement algorithms that already exist elsewhere to get the input / output of those algorithms checked... > For lintian.d.o a bit more work, but I don't think it's really > prohibitive, plus sarge is going to be release soon :). I suggested desktop-file-validate as a "no code duplication, smallest effort" solution, may be the true solution is to rewrite the code in a different way? Bye, -- Loïc Minier <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
