I guess Ubuntu Precise is a bit aged for this. It simply checks for the policy version which was valid at this time. I'd recommend to install a file /etc/apt/preferences.d/01-lintian.pref containing Package: lintian Pin: release a=unstable Pin-Priority: 605 I have no idea whether there are any side effects under Ubuntu but in Debian this ensures you are using lintian from unstable. For sure this requires some file /etc/apt/sources.list.d/debian-unstable.lis containing deb http://http.debian.net/debian/ unstable main or something like this and you definitely want to make sure that you have set your preferences correctly to not mix up your Ubuntu system with Debian unstable packages. So take this advise with a grain of salt! (Should I add: You have been warned? ;-)) The way I changed the debian/control file was to simply use cme fix dpkg-control which does a pretty good job in removing unneeded stuff. Here as well I'm using libconfig-model from unstable via a prefereces file: /etc/apt/preferences.d/01-cme.pref containing Package: libconfig-model-dpkg-perl Pin: release a=unstable Pin-Priority: 605 So far so simple under Debian - no idea what pitfalls might be under Ubuntu for this approach. > On 01/08/2014 09:16 AM, Andreas Tille wrote: > > Moreover you are closing the ITP bug not inside the last changelog > > paragraph.

What does $ grep url .git/config say? It is url = ssh://git.debian.org/git/pkg-grass/pg_comparator.git on my side and this should work if you can do ssh git.debian.org > Any ideas ? May be if you answer the question above ...
