Package: lintian Version: 2.5.10.3 Severity: wishlist Looking at #657281 led me to look at Contents-source for other possible occurrences of this file. I ended up using md5sum to positively identify that the offending file in other source packages was or was not the same file.
That this file was in 5 different source packages indicates that it is a fairly popular move to copy this file into your project and then use it. If I could automate testing for this file with md5sum, then lintian could automate keeping more copies of it out of the archive in the future; it would be possible to include a list of known-non-free files and emit an error when found. Something like: 1d3fda2edb4a89ab60a23c5f7c7d81dd sRGB.icm is non-free; distribution of modified versions not permitted. See #657281. Perhaps this would be too hard to maintain or there would be sufficiently few examples of places where it could help... just a thought. cheers Stuart -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
