I ran lintian on i386 (and I updated the m68k version to 1.20.14.1 as well). The messages do not appear on i386, but they do appear on m68k. So I guess its a perl problem? perl is 5.6.1-5 on both machines. > How about submitting a bug with a full dump of the error.

I'm neither a perl nor a lintian expert, but the log doesn't give me any clue... a few more line with debug output, if you need more, just let me know. If you insist on a bug report, tell me.
