Someone could also add ltconfig etc to debian/clean or even do a "mv ltconfig ltconfig.old" somewhere and try doing something else to actually not use libtool. Given that lintian is a static checking tool, it is really hard for it to actually detect N number of patterns when someone is not actually using libtool to do things despite when files triggering those checks are clearly present. This is probably one of those cases wherein we would need to as the maintainer to actually add an override. Maybe the severity of this could be lowered in the best case. For this package in particular, it is probably best to have the override be there as it is. Or otherwise, for better package quality, you might want to re-pack obsolete files altogether. @pollo: what do you think? Thanks Nilesh
