Hi Steffen,

I logged into my Jessie pbuilder and ran the Jessie version of lintian on chealpix_3.30.0-4~bpo8+1_amd64.changes. I did not get the package-must-activate-ldconfig-trigger message. To quote <https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=827923#10>, "lintian is simply testing for something that
applies to unstable but not for jessie."

Cheers,
Leo
