You appear to be running Lintian configured to show "Experimental: yes" tags. This is not recommended and you are likely seeing many other completely bogus or otherwise unactionable tags. Experimental tags are mostly a development/debugging aid — a way to have tags implemented but hidden from users for the time being or just to see how many packages would be affected. A playground or zoo of sorts, and not something developers should care about or even see when preparing packages. Putting it another way, I agree about not migrating so many packages, but that is exactly why it's an experimental tag. Indeed, there is nothing special about the Java team's packages here when you look at it this way; I am sure there are other teams this would apply to. I would therefore suggest that the fix here is actually that you do not run Lintian in "experimental" mode. If there are tags in that mode that you find useful, do let us know as this is a sign that they should be promoted.. rather than maintain a specific "allow" list. (Felix, please consider reverting your change to 12cd485d until we have consensus here.) Regards, -- ,''`. : :' : Chris Lamb `. `'` la...@debian.org 🍥 chris-lamb.co.uk `-
