Package: linda
Severity: normal

Hi,

I had a hard time finding out how to override multiple warnings of the
same kind. It looks like when linda parses the override file, it only
sees one of the override stanzas for a tag, last one winning. One
needs to cram all possible data values into a single stanza, giving
something like

Tag: no-manual-for-binary
Data: (exim|mailq|newaliases|rmail|rsmtp|runq|sendmail)

This is unintuitive as hell, in my opinion. Please document this
behavior.

Additionally, I'd like linda to honor multiple stanzas for the same
tag, like

Tag: no-manual-for-binary
Data: exim

Tag: no-manual-for-binary
Data: mailq

without mailq overriding exim. Generally, the linda docs need more
examples.

Greetings
Marc
