Package: lintian Version: 2.104.0 Severity: normal Dear Maintainer,
tl;dr: lintian does not consider Architecture: a valid header field
in debian/tests/control, and I think that's not correct.
Full story: Creating an autopkgtest that requires systemd for execution,
I wanted to be extra-sure this will not cause trouble if ever someone
runs autopkgtest on !linux. So, after checking the specification at[1],
I wrote
Tests: run-testsuite
Depends: @,
systemd,
Architecture: linux-any
and lintian replied
P: (...) source: unknown-runtime-tests-field Architecture in line 4
So in my opionion, Architecture: (and also Classes:) should be added to
testsuite/known-fields.
Regards,
Christoph
