Package: wily Version: 0.13.41-0.2 Severity: serious Tags: woody
The wily package is extremely out of date and has several serious policy violations, one of which prevents the xlibs 4.1.0-6 package from being installed. Here's the output from a lintian run: N: Setting up lab in /tmp/lintian-lab.24486 ... N: Processing binary package wily (version 0.13.41-0.2) ... W: wily: binary-compiled-with-profiling-enabled usr/X11R6/bin/wily E: wily: binary-without-manpage wily N: N: Each binary in /usr/bin, /usr/sbin, /bin, /sbin, or /usr/games, must N: have a manual page. N: N: Note, that though the `man' program has the capability to check for N: several program names in the NAMES section, each of these programs N: must have its own manual page (a symbolic link to the appropriate N: manual page is sufficient) because other manual page viewers such as N: xman or tkman don't support this. N: N: Refer to Policy Manual, section 13.1 for details. N: E: wily: copyright-refers-to-old-directory N: N: The common licenses (GPL, BSD, Artistic, etc) have been moved from N: /usr/doc/copyright and /usr/share/doc/copyright to N: /usr/share/common-licenses. Copyright files should be updated. N: N: Refer to Policy Manual, section 13.6 for details. N: W: wily: prerm-does-not-remove-usr-doc-link N: N: The technical committee chose the symlink transition method to move N: from FSSTND to FHS. This transition involves setting the link in the N: postinst script and removing it in the prerm script. Here is an N: example (/bin/sh): N: if [ \( "$1" = "upgrade" -o "$1" = "remove" \) -a -L /usr/doc/pkg ]; then N: rm -f /usr/doc/pkg N: fi N: The test for this is not perfect. If you are setting the link, please N: send the line of code to us so we can improve the test. N: W: wily: postinst-does-not-set-usr-doc-link N: N: The technical committee chose the symlink transition method to move N: from FSSTND to FHS. This transition involves setting the link in the N: postinst script and removing it in the prerm script. Here is an N: example (/bin/sh): N: if [ "$1" = "configure" ]; then N: if [ -d /usr/doc -a ! -e /usr/doc/pkg -a -d /usr/share/doc/pkg ]; then N: ln -sf ../share/doc/pkg /usr/doc/pkg N: fi N: fi N: The test for this is not perfect. If you are setting the link, please N: send the line of code to us so we can improve the test. N: E: wily: old-app-defaults-directory usr/X11R6/lib/X11/app-defaults/ N: N: The app-defaults files have moved to /etc/X11/app-defaults/. Files in N: the old directory, /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/app-defaults/, will no longer be N: used by X. The old directory should not exist in packages at all; this N: prevents X from replacing it with a compatability symlink. N: N: Refer to Policy Manual, section 12.8 for details. N: E: wily: old-app-defaults-directory usr/X11R6/lib/X11/app-defaults/Wily E: wily: FSSTND-dir-in-usr usr/doc/ N: N: As of policy version 3.0.0.0, Debian no longer follows the FSSTND. N: N: Instead, the Filesystem Hierarchy Standard (FHS), version 2.1, is N: used. You can find it in /usr/share/doc/debian-policy/fhs/ . N: N: Removing /tmp/lintian-lab.24486 ...
