Good points. I'd be happy to contribute md5sums - but this is my first bugreport against lintian so I need a bit of hand holding, I guess: Is that path perhaps in some git, or how do I contribute? >> Filename typically includes "lena" or "lenna" in its stem. >> >> A simple check could be scan for /\blenn?a\b/ in filename, and then >> check with "file" if content is a graphics file. > > Yes will implement but it will be wild guess no autoreject. Right, I had no higher hopes than that (as you can see above I even outruled md5sums, didn't think both could be done in parallel) >> More reliable check might involve serializing hits of above loose check >> in some deterministic manner, compute md5 from that, and compare against >> a blacklist. > > No pull too many deps Ok. Wasn't sure if other checks alreadt did similar.
