Bug#886343: lintian: missing-notice-file-for-apache-license false positives

2018-01-04 Thread Ferenc Wágner
Package: lintian
Version: 2.5.67
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

My package won the

E: shibboleth-sp2 source: missing-notice-file-for-apache-license doc/NOTICE.txt

Lintian error even though all its binary packages carry NOTICE.txt due to

   dh_installdocs -A doc/NOTICE.txt [...]

Looking at the Lintian code, it checks for ^NOTICE(\.gz)?$ only:
https://sources.debian.org/src/lintian/2.5.67/checks/source-copyright.pm/?hl=168#L168
but my NOTICE.txt is too small to be compressed by dh_compress and has
.txt extension anyway.  Do you agree that this should be relaxed?
