Package: bash Version: 5.0~alpha1-1 Severity: minor Tags: patch Dear Maintainer,
texi2html is deprecated. Removing the build dependency does not change the bash-doc package content, I verified it with diffoscope. I think it's already using makeinfo, which is the suggested alternative: https://wiki.debian.org/Texi2htmlTransition Upstream's pkg-config file includes 2 flags that Lintian doesn't like, but I think they are valid as it's for building loadable modules. Inlined a patch to fix both for 5.0, please kindly consider applying it. Thank you! Lintian Errors: E: bash source: build-depends-on-obsolete-package build-depends: texi2html N: N: The package build-depends on a package that has been superseded. If the N: superseded package is part of an ORed group, it should not be the first N: package in the group.
