Package: lintian Version: 2.5.12 Severity: wishlist Hi!
Due to the install-info transition [0], dependencies were added to packages to be able to support partial upgrades, but those are now unneeded. I've filed a bug on debhelper (#707218) to stop generating these, so they will start disappearing gradually once debhelper is changed and packages get rebuilt with the new version, but there might be packages not using debhelper that might need manual intervention. It would be nice to have a check issuing a warning (or maybe a lower severity tag, to not annoy people initially?) for these dependencies: dpkg (>= 1.15.4) | install-info [0] <http://wiki.debian.org/Transitions/DpkgToGnuInstallInfo> Thanks, Guillem -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
