Yay, thanks! Much appreciated. You're still in the "lintian" group of Salsa, so you should be still able to commit to the repo. > Could you please prepare a list of urgent action ? Usually, if I consider a lintian bug to be urgent-ish, I bumped its severity to important. (And you bumped one to serious already, too. :-) So anything RC or "important" on https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/pkgreport.cgi?src=lintian;dist=unstable is what we should focus on first, if possible. Those marked confirmed are those I already looked at closer: * #993613 * #1014083 * #1014162 Then there are two other topics I have a focus on, because I think, they're important for all of us, because they're annoying: * False Positives: https://udd.debian.org/cgi-bin/bts-usertags.cgi?user=lintian-maint%40debian.org&tag=false-positive * Automatically migrating non-bracketed lintian overrides to bracketed ones. I started here, but it's mostly lacking migration regexp mappings for the hundreds of tags being affected: https://salsa.debian.org/lintian/lintian/-/blob/migrate-overrides/bin/lintian-migrate-overrides-to-pointed-hints Note that this is currently only inside a feature branch which is not yet merged as it is far from helpful yet. This is actually my fix for https://bugs.debian.org/1007002 Oh, and one more thing: I want to adhere to Semantic Versioning — the real one (https://semver.org/), not the one which Felix called "Semantic Versioning" despite it wasn't Semantic Versioning. So the versioning from now on will be BREAK.FEATURE.BUGFIX: * Changing configuration semantic or syntax or exit codes will be a BREAK. * Adding new tags will be a FEATURE. * No functional changes except bug fixes will be a BUGFIX. * Pure documentation or build-system changes will be a BUGFIX, too. And probably also: * Renaming tags will be a BREAK. (Feel free to discuss if you disagree. :-)) Not yet sure about: * Will be removing a tag a BREAK, too? P.S.: Yeah, there was a bit of silence (despite not complete silence) from me on lintian, but that was mostly due to holidays (in which was way less online that I expected), some pre-holiday and some post-holidays stress. And also because of RC bugs in some of my other similarily important packages. Expect some more activity on Lintian towards to next weekend. :-) Regards, Axel -- ,''`. | Axel Beckert <a...@debian.org>, https://people.debian.org/~abe/ : :' : | Debian Developer, ftp.ch.debian.org Admin `. `' | 4096R: 2517 B724 C5F6 CA99 5329 6E61 2FF9 CD59 6126 16B5 `- | 1024D: F067 EA27 26B9 C3FC 1486 202E C09E 1D89 9593 0EDE
