Package: lintian Version: 2.5.8 Severity: wishlist Dear Maintainer, *** Please consider answering these questions, where appropriate ***
* What led up to the situation? The Debian MySQL team has decided to move to an unversioned source package: "mysql". I guess the simplest thing is simply to wait until the new source package hits unstable and then reduced the regular expression accordingly. At that point I would raise the priority of the bug to normal. In the meantime a bug report number to tag the lintian overrides in the "mysql" package is a really good idea so I can keep track of the issue. I would understand if the bug was tagged "wontfix" until it really becomes an issue. However if in the meantime you could make the regular expression handle either "mysql" or "mysql-\d\.\d" that would be really nice. -- System Information: Debian Release: wheezy/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (500, 'testing'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 3.2.0-1-686-pae (SMP w/1 CPU core) Locale: LANG=en_GB.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_GB.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages lintian depends on: ii binutils 2.22-6.1 ii bzip2 1.0.6-1 ii diffstat 1.55-2 ii file 5.11-1 ii gettext 0.18.1.1-9 ii hardening-includes 2.1 ii intltool-debian 0.35.0+20060710.1 ii libapt-pkg-perl 0.1.26+b1 ii libc-bin 2.13-32 ii libclass-accessor-perl 0.34-1 ii libclone-perl 0.31-1+b2 ii libdpkg-perl 1.16.4.2 ii libemail-valid-perl 0.190-1 ii libipc-run-perl 0.91-1 ii libparse-debianchangelog-perl 1.2.0-1 ii libtimedate-perl 1.2000-1 ii liburi-perl 1.60-1 ii locales 2.13-32 ii locales-all [locales] 2.13-32 ii man-db 2.6.1-2 ii patchutils 0.3.2-1.1 ii perl [libdigest-sha-perl] 5.14.2-11 ii unzip 6.0-6 lintian recommends no packages.
