Control: tags -1 patch Hello,
It seems that .dist-info and .egg-info are always ignored for this warning anyway. However dist-info should contain $ cat -n lib/Lintian/Screen/Python/Egg/Metadata.pm ... 35 return 1 36 if $item->dirname =~ m{ [^/] [.] dist-info / $}x 37 && defined $item->parent_dir->child('METADATA') 38 && defined $item->parent_dir->child('WHEEL') 39 && defined $item->parent_dir->child('RECORD'); Now, your packages seems to be missing "RECORD" file in .dist-info due to which this tag is again shown. $ debc | grep -E '(WHEEL|RECORD|METADATA)' -rw-r--r-- root/root 4575 2023-06-23 05:30 ./usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/bytecode-0.14.2.dist-info/METADATA -rw-r--r-- root/root 92 2023-06-23 05:30 ./usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/bytecode-0.14.2.dist-info/WHEEL On digging into dh-python changelog, I see the entry: * Remove RECORD files from dist-info, these are incompatible with multi-arch. Then, I think it makes sense to remove this check from lintian as well. I've anyway opened an MR to fix this: https://salsa.debian.org/lintian/lintian/-/merge_requests/482 Best, Nilesh
