I have no problem with Lintian accepting arch-qualified override files, but I do not see the "strict" (i.e. "must") requirement[1]. Lintian already allows you to do arch-specific overrides and 2.5.5 will even allow architecture wildcards as well[2]. ~Niels [1] Exception being compressed override files, but of the 161 override files on my system not a single one of them are compressed. [2] http://lintian.debian.org/manual/section-2.4.html#section-2.4.1 Admittedly the link above does not have an example with it, but Lintian (git) has an entire "section" dedicated to architecture specific overrules. So there will be several examples with next release. :) -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-devel-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
