Uploaded. For a future release, you should add a lintian override for
this lintian warning:
W: dish: spelling-error-in-description mysql MySQL
Vincent, thank you for sponsoring the package!
Or, instead of hiding the warning, just fix the spelling? If it's a bug
in lintian, report that instead. Overrides shouldn't be used lightly
and encouraging one for a capitalization issue seems like poor
judgement, IMHO.
The description talks about "mysql" commandline program. I don't think
lintian is able to do the difference.
Indeed, it can't, although it will suppress such warnings if you put it in
quotes. That may or may not be appropriate, though. (I haven't looked at
the description to see the situation. Usually referring to command-line
programs rather than software in the description is rare, but there are
cases where you want to do it.)
In the description paragraph in debian/control, I put all program names in
quotes and the lintian warning disappeared. A new package has been
uploaded:
- dget http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/d/dish/dish_1.16.2-2.dsc
Regards,
Dimitar
