must choose one way or the other to organize itself." so I suppose
it's justified if lintian finds a package using both /usr/libexec
and /usr/lib
ack
there are about 12000 executable files in /usr/lib on this machine.

Since policy downgraded the "must" quoted by this tag to a "should",
at least the text of the tag should change. Maybe perl folk have suggestions?
Also, should it still be an error? Are those only

I just encountered a source package with

As summarized in

The tag in the subject is generated for source package Racket.
Severity is because this is used as an autoreject tag. Maybe that's not

sometimes broken in git. This makes it hard for people to test new
