Package: lintian Version: 2.63.0 Severity: serious Justification: prevents upload of brltty package
Hello, While running lintian on the output of the brltty source package, I am getting this: E: brltty-udeb udeb: file-in-etc-not-marked-as-conffile etc/brltty/Attributes/invleft_right.atb E: brltty-udeb udeb: file-in-etc-not-marked-as-conffile etc/brltty/Attributes/left_right.atb E: brltty-udeb udeb: file-in-etc-not-marked-as-conffile etc/brltty/Attributes/upper_lower.atb E: brltty-udeb udeb: file-in-etc-not-marked-as-conffile ... use --no-tag-display-limit to see all (or pipe to a file/program) But AIUI for a udeb it does not make sense to have conffiles, thus why they are not getting set, that's expected. I tried to override it with this in brltty-udeb.lintian-overrides: brltty-udeb udeb: file-in-etc-not-marked-as-conffile etc/brltty/Attributes/invleft_right.atb but that didn't work. That's basically preventing me from uploading the brltty package since ftpmaster also gets the error. This can be reproduced efficiently with apt-get source rootskel cd rootskel-* dpkg-buildpackage/pdebuild/whatever your liking lintian ../rootskel*.changes I bisected the issue down to apparition in lintian version 2.58.0 Samuel -- System Information: Debian Release: bullseye/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (990, 'testing'), (500, 'unstable-debug'), (500, 'testing-debug'), (500, 'stable-debug'), (500, 'proposed-updates-debug'), (500, 'proposed-updates'), (500, 'oldstable-proposed-updates-debug'), (500, 'oldstable-proposed-updates'), (500, 'oldoldstable'), (500, 'buildd-unstable'), (500, 'unstable'), (500, 'stable'), (500, 'oldstable'), (1, 'experimental-debug'), (1, 'buildd-experimental'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Foreign Architectures: i386 Kernel: Linux 5.6.0 (SMP w/8 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=fr_FR.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=fr_FR.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8), LANGUAGE=fr_FR.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) Versions of packages lintian depends on: ii binutils 2.34-5 ii bzip2 1.0.8-2 ii diffstat 1.63-1 ii dpkg 1.19.7 ii dpkg-dev 1.19.7 ii file 1:5.38-4 ii gettext 0.19.8.1-10 ii gpg 2.2.20-1 ii intltool-debian 0.35.0+20060710.5 ii libapt-pkg-perl 0.1.36+b3 ii libarchive-zip-perl 1.68-1 ii libcapture-tiny-perl 0.48-1 ii libclass-xsaccessor-perl 1.19-3+b3 ii libclone-perl 0.43-2 ii libcpanel-json-xs-perl 4.19-1 ii libdevel-size-perl 0.83-1+b1 ii libdpkg-perl 1.19.7 ii libemail-valid-perl 1.202-1 ii libfile-basedir-perl 0.08-1 ii libfile-find-rule-perl 0.34-1 ii libfont-ttf-perl 1.06-1 ii libhtml-parser-perl 3.72-5 ii libio-async-loop-epoll-perl 0.20-1 ii libio-async-perl 0.75-1 ii libipc-run-perl 20180523.0-2 ii libjson-maybexs-perl 1.004000-1 ii liblist-compare-perl 0.53-1 ii liblist-moreutils-perl 0.416-1+b5 ii libmoo-perl 2.003006-1 ii libmoox-aliases-perl 0.001006-1 ii libnamespace-clean-perl 0.27-1 ii libpath-tiny-perl 0.108-1 ii libsereal-decoder-perl 4.011+ds-1 ii libsereal-encoder-perl 4.011+ds-1 ii libtext-levenshtein-perl 0.13-1 ii libtimedate-perl 2.3200-1 ii libtry-tiny-perl 0.30-1 ii libtype-tiny-perl 1.008001-2 ii libunicode-utf8-perl 0.62-1+b1 ii liburi-perl 1.76-2 ii libxml-libxml-perl 2.0134+dfsg-2 ii libxml-writer-perl 0.625-1 ii libyaml-libyaml-perl 0.81+repack-1 ii man-db 2.9.1-1 ii patchutils 0.3.4-2+b1 ii perl [libdigest-sha-perl] 5.30.0-9 ii t1utils 1.41-3 ii xz-utils 5.2.4-1+b1 Versions of packages lintian recommends: ii libperlio-gzip-perl 0.19-1+b6 Versions of packages lintian suggests: pn binutils-multiarch <none> ii libtext-template-perl 1.58-1 -- no debconf information -- Samuel <c> xlnt comme sujet de stage je peux essayer de donner une description formelle de automake -+- #ens-mim -+-
