Bug#981932: lintian: warn about packages using PyPI pages in the Homepage field

2021-03-05 Thread Jakub Wilk

PyPI is a packaging system just as Debian is a packaging system and 
each PyPI package has a Homepage link that points at the upstream 
homepage.


Not every package at PyPI has Homepage set, e.g.:
https://pypi.org/project/python-cpl/

And sometimes Homepage points back to the PyPI page, e.g.:
https://pypi.org/project/Unidecode/


According to the Debian Code Search service 100 packages are affected:

Actually that's 277 packages at the moment.

Thanks for your attention to detail. Does that affect the
implementation awaiting release—for example the proposed tag
description?
