How to handle unused third party libraries in upstream tarball
Hello list !
Going back to gaming again.
I get the following lintian errors in the mame package:
W: mame source: outdated-autotools-helper-file
3rdparty/expat/conftools/config.guess 2011-05-11
E: mame source: source-contains-prebuilt-ms-help-file
3rdparty/zlib/contrib/dotzlib/DotZLib.chm
We ( of course :) use debian libraries to build the package and don't
use these upstream embedded versions.
Is it fine to silence the Lintian errors ? Should I rather skip this
them when creating the orig tarball ? Is it a case to use the dfsg suffix ?
Thanks
Emmanuel
