Lintian already excluded files in the normal path directories (usr/bin/, usr/sbin/ ...), but we had forgotten to exclude usr/games as well. Excluding all binaries and known scripts might be a good idea, but I have not deployed that change. Perhaps some of the other Lintian maintainers can comment on that idea. ~Niels [1] http://git.debian.org/?p=lintian/lintian.git;a=commit;h=f7e8118e64e5dedf8933cde2bd1f176441ffdabc -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.10 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org/ iQIcBAEBCAAGBQJNIyohAAoJEAVLu599gGRCmk4P/iP6D34Zh5XuwA9Msmv3eM4A Wr7MQWvTWaLOA4OLkBEq3v8mD1xP0QGtqALmYdiYmw0dHuL2cGHAA6625L5gYUZZ VhViNHoa9rWtvtiKEH4aqFzlpm6cvfUfyPjZC/saIK+WlohJaaDvxyZd1UMS2DY/ UsZuc+ZB39l8XYuD6zQuxxp8k0z7TdSnCYNtSDGvbebFPiuZmDiHEEf1IuUUj47q 3fUO0LPOn8bM4Qg909CXvQhFH1KdQHHG35hYCieBWfLqSTb9H4kOEazFFxF3dm6i h8Dj+MkdHjoDxLdPp1ydWRPh2kmdGEkHvZ4sBvsyevGBcpWsY324ldf8zAv4IJ92 Pf8TMrqyJnZEW0LXV20TolYb/6W3VTujH4Tw8vCmKRz3wbd309Kthw5XCy2FJAmJ hqj/dTEt/VZaSzp6Ju1/HSwrCywMWocLXsq62JVgs3ksGKl2mzPNuBxbJT26pNXK wBLPGOaJ4FswdAo8htzmY9cq32SdgTxMXtaEPLovHVw8Pc3cSIcyyatjT0bhKI1X 1n8jnDNLOpJeU8eDQVqUWCySB7SngR8tRPe9RRl2h2n608zhqY0LxA1RKRdViaKw UvUCpdIjI1cHhgm8dkbp0SMenc/rB+MqsvhJBA0M+VmCa0xKKAkq7IxtxH877YQ0 TIMqzMZVc0XmwUS6tiDL =Rxny -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
