Maybe you shouldn’t take that personally? How about treating the lintian bug for what it is? A feature request, nothing more, nothing less. Given the strong opposition from people who are explaining that they would do a better job at maintaining my packages (but without volunteering for it, of course), I have abandoned the idea of deprecating S-V, so I’m looking for other solutions. A small change in lintian – that would benefit lots of other situations as well – doesn’t look so bad, compared to having Manoj’s logorrhea land again on the lists. Cheers, -- .''`.
