Package: lintian Version: 2.5.38.1 Severity: normal Hi,
I'd guess that lintian does not accept the '+' character in tags when reading the overrides, resulting in this: E: nvidia-cuda-dev: malformed-override Cannot parse line 9: missing-dependency-on-libstdc++ X: nvidia-cuda-dev: missing-dependency-on-libstdc++ needed by usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/stubs/libcublas.so and 10 others The override file contains .... # These libraries are only stubs. missing-dependency-on-libc needed by usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/stubs/* #missing-dependency-on-libstdc++ needed by usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/stubs/* missing-dependency-on-libstdc++ .... Neither of the two forms is working ... while the missing-dependency-on-libc one works fine. Actually I'd prefer these tags to be emitted once for each occurence and not grouped together with "and X others". That would allow more fine granular overrides like missing-dependency-on-libc needed by usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/stubs/lib*.so because right now I'm not sure whether I'm overriding something else than the stuff in stubs/ Andreas
