Hi, I am planning to clean my package's lintian records, but I am not too sure how to tackle this one: https://lintian.debian.org/tags/no-debian-changes.html > Debian packaging is sometimes maintained as part of upstream, but that is > not recommended as best practice. Please make this package native, if the > software is only for Debian. Otherwise, please remove the debian directory > from upstream releases and add it in the Debian packaging.
The package is quite simple and its debian packaging is maintained with the upstream source to keep everything simple. But I guess this has to change and since the package is not Debian only, the second option looks like the only real one. https://packages.debian.org/sid/main/misspell-fixer Do I understand well that practically the debian folder should have to disappear from the orig.tar.gz? Is this what the check verifies? I am wondering to move the debian folder to a dedicated github repository to have it version tracked. Or is there any more Debian friendly place for these debian packaging repositories? Thank you! Best regards. Lajos -- Lajos Veres vlajos+deb...@gmail.com
