Jelmer Vernooij:
[...]lintian-brush has a notion of oldest-supported-release, which is set to the current stable release (so currently "bookworm"). A lot of the behaviour is based on what versions of packages are available in the oldest supported release. So in this case, perhaps that means we can drop Rules-Requires-Root once the oldest supported dpkg is newer than a certain version (1.22.13?). Cheers, Jelmer
Certainly, that is an option. If it is simple to implement in lintian-brush, feel free to do it. The 1.22.13 version is the right version assuming no more regressions in dpkg.
Best regards, Niels
