These are not release-critical issues. Also, I've already got a bug report (#46904) filed against lintian for its reporting on this issue. Personally, I don't think the qa team should migrate any packages from fsstnd to fhs till after potato is released. You're talking about making changes to most packages for a non-release-critical issue, and that's just asking for problems. [And the policy on this isn't even ready.] The binary-without-a-manpage issue is less clear cut. -- Raul
