Bug#976889: classpath-contains-relative-path is a false-positive for libX-clojure packages



Package: lintian
Version: 2.104.0
Severity: normal

Dear maintainers,

It seems that when packaging a Clojure package that also has a
d/libX-clojure.classpath file, the "classpath-contains-relative-path"
tag is emitted.

The tag's description says:

"Note, Lintian assumes that all (relative) classpaths pointing to
/usr/share/java/ (but not subdirs thereof) are satisfied by dependencies
as long as there is at least one strong libX-java dependency."

Since Clojure packages also push jars in "/usr/share/java" but aren't
named "libX-java", I'm assuming this is a false-positive.

In my opinion, this check should also take for granted classpaths are
satisfied by strong libX-clojure dependencies.

I would like to think I'll have time to submit a patch to fix this
problem this week, but if someone else wants to have a go, I certainly
won't mind.

Cheers,
