Package: lintian Version: 2.5.50.4 Severity: normal Dear Maintainer,
While improving the packaging of a Debian package, I found that the source release included .class files (pre compiled java files). Those .class files were also part of the upstream release. These upstream compiled files were also included in the binary release. While running lintian, I saw no warning about their presence. This can be reproduced with the imagej package 1.51i+dfsg-2 or older.
