Bug#1005326: no-code-sections triggered on non-ELF files
Package: lintian
Version: 2.114.0
Quack,
no-code-sections is triggered on dxvk, and also on wine, but these are
not ELF files since it's targeted for Windows. Of course an override is
possible but here there's an obvious way to avoid a false positive since
readelf fails with "readelf: Error: Not an ELF file - it has the wrong
magic bytes at the start", or maybe by using `objdump -a` or some other
method to first check the archive format (I'm really not an expert in
this area). Could you consider improving the check?
Regards.
