--- Begin Message ---Package: lintian Version: 2.5.30+deb8u3 Severity: wishlist --- Please enter the report below this line. --- Lintian currently refers to "dep5" copyright issues and tags, but the "DEP-5" references have been deprecated in favor of "copyright 1.0": https://www.debian.org/doc/packaging-manuals/copyright-format/1.0/ so these tags could be renamed as "copyright 1.0" (or "1.x"), which I think would make them more clear. Having a look at checks/source-copyright.[desc|pm] this involves the following tags which could be renamed:: no-dep5-copyright syntax-error-in-dep5-copyright obsolete-field-in-dep5-copyright comma-separated-files-in-dep5-copyright empty-short-license-in-dep5-copyright invalid-short-name-in-dep5-copyright space-in-std-shortname-in-dep5-copyright bad-exception-format-in-dep5-copyright missing-license-paragraph-in-dep5-copyright missing-license-text-in-dep5-copyright unused-license-paragraph-in-dep5-copyright unknown-paragraph-in-dep5-copyright field-name-typo-in-dep5-copyright ambiguous-paragraph-in-dep5-copyright invalid-escape-sequence-in-dep5-copyright wildcard-matches-nothing-in-dep5-copyright unused-file-paragraph-in-dep5-copyright -- Chris -- Chris Knadle [email protected]

--- Begin Message ---tags 771750 + moreinfo thanks Hi, > But I'm not sure if Lintian should invent or promote new terminology. Indeed, and these tags have been around for quite a while so the cost of renaming is even higher... Closing & marking as "wontfix" to match.
