Bug#612583: [new check] check for package being built as user root

2012-02-03 Thread Jakub Wilk

* Martin Zobel-Helas , 2011-02-09, 12:03:
yesterday i stumbled about a .changes file having a Changed-By: 
root@$domain. This might idicate that the package was not built in a 
sane environment. From my understanding neither debian/changelog should 
container root@$domain nor a package should be build as user root. An 
ftp-master autoreject based on this lintian check might be good idea.


Not long ago I saw:

Changed-By: root 

which is also worrisome.

Bug#612583: [new check] check for package being built as user root

2011-02-09 Thread Martin Zobel-Helas
Package: lintian
Version: 2.4.3
Severity: wishlist

Hi,

yesterday i stumbled about a .changes file having a Changed-By: root@$domain.
This might idicate that the package was not built in a sane environment. From
my understanding neither debian/changelog should container root@$domain nor a
package should be build as user root. An ftp-master autoreject based on this
lintian check might be good idea.

Cheers,
Martin
