I haven't touched lintian.d.o in many years now, so please feel free to drop me
from the list.
If you do find that you have high bus factor on that afterwards, likewise,
don't hesitate to let me know.

Hi,
I think I'm going to make a Lintian check for all packages that use
/usr/X11R6 except those where $source{$binpkg} eq "xfree86"
(half-pseudo-code there).
AIUI, Overfiend only added the imake exception into policy so that less
packages need immediate fixing (policy-is-not-a-stick policy :), no
Hi,
After haggling with the code to check the diffs for a few hours, I just
noticed that the original report makes no sense: the config.* files cannot
be removed by the diff, because dpkg-source simply ignores file deletions!
I'll remove the grossly overengineered code from lintian that was suppo

Hi,
I believe I've cleaned up the last of the visible rough edges in the code

to do the almost 8 hour long clean check every time, but instead only check
the packages that changed from what we already had, which usually t

Hi,
Just trolling for traffic... :)
We have a new mailing list now to discuss the maintenance of Debian
lint-like tools -- namely lintian and linda, but anything else that's
related is on topic as well.
It's called debian-lint-maint, and you can subscribe to it the normal way,
