Try help2man from the package of the same name. You need to edit the manual page produced, of course ;-)... > the second warning is problematic because I am doing a link beetwen the > /usr/share/java/jrpcgen-1.0.7.jar and /usr/bin/jrpcgen. > > > must I provide a lintian override or is there a better way to fix this > issue ? Hmmm... I guess Matthew will have a more definite opinion than me about that. In any case, don't use lintian overrides unless you have a very good reason for that. I guess more packages are in this case. For now, keeping the lintian warning is fine, I think, and then we can point to the lintian maintainers that some files can be executables even if they are not scripts/elf provided the packages depends on binfmt-support.
