Hi I just activated the following changes to our autoreject lintian tags. The full file, as always, is available from [1], diff with changes below.
[1] https://ftp-master.debian.org/static/lintian.tags From those tags, the following do hit more than just one or two packages: gzip-file-is-not-multi-arch-same-safe (8 packages, 17 tags, plus 3 overrides) It is non-fatal, so can be overriden if needed. I would like to activate license-problem-gfdl-invariants That really ought to be rejected, but it will instantly hit a number of packages, (44 packages, 81 tags, plus 19 overrides), so I haven't, yet. Lintians advice, and something I concur with, is to override it, if files are dual-licensed. So unless someone gets good reasons why it shouldn't be active, I would like to have this a non-fatal tag some time. pkg-config-multi-arch-wrong-dir Another one that should get a (non-fatal) reject, but currently hits (21 packages, 77 tags),
