Hmm... The history follows. I made built package checks under my usual system (testing), and now i see that it should be produced in pbuilder environment. I just added linda- and lintian-hooks to pbuilder (DISTRIBUTION=testing). They reports: Setting up linda (0.3.17) ... Linda: Running as root, dropping to nobody. E: dsbltesters; dsbl.conf is in /etc, but not marked as a conffile. Setting up lintian (1.23.14) ... E: dsbltesters: file-in-etc-not-marked-as-conffile /etc/dsbl.conf W: dsbltesters: old-fsf-address-in-copyright-file To me, it's a kind of magic, because i use up-to-date etch system and certanly same linda/lintian versions as for pbuilder environment. How come the difference? Anyway, now, pbuilder environment was upgraded for sid and next release should be lintian-clean. Be so nice, look at dsbl-testers_0.9.5-3... -- Regards, Al Nikolov JID [EMAIL PROTECTED] IRC clown UIN 312108671 PGP 4B50 F1E3 080C 21A2 91F4 8BF0 CD60 3B5A 2ECF 984B -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
