Those are to be expected, as the dsc will contain the details for the generated package (i.e. it should match the checksums in _amd64.changes). > file: unrecognized option `--lzma' My assumption is that the above is being generated by the "file-info" collection script; could you please retest using Lintian's -d option to confirm? Assuming that the "file-info" script is generating the error, that implies that the source tarball index Lintian has generated contains a line which contains "--lzma" which is then being split and passed to 'file'. Would it be possible for you to make a copy of the source and binary packages available? That would be very useful for debugging the issue.
