Hi, To be honest, I was my understanding the auto-reject had been temporarily disabled. However, according to [1] it appears to still be active. If you are in a hurry, dh_builddeb should work. Otherwise, I believe the ftp-masters can manually accept a package that would have been rejected. ~Niels [1] http://ftp-master.debian.org/static/lintian.tags -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-devel-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
