Already done (was: New lintian check)



Hello, 

here is a part of binaries.desc file of lintian:
Tag: library-not-linked-against-libc
Type: warning
Info: The package installs a library which is not dynamically linked
 against libc.
 .
 Usually this is a bug. Otherwise, please contact &maint;
 about this so that this error gets included in the overrides file for
 Lintian. (With that, Lintian will ignore this bug in the future.)
 
So, this check (and my changes) are useless.

Proof:
$ lintian /var/cache/apt/archives/libnspr4_M18-3_i386.deb 
W: libnspr4: library-not-linked-against-libc ./usr/lib/libplc4.so
W: libnspr4: library-not-linked-against-libc ./usr/lib/libplds4.so
E: libnspr4: upstream-version-not-numeric M18
E: libnspr4: shlib-missing-in-control-file libplds4.so usr/lib/libplds4.so
E: libnspr4: shlib-missing-in-control-file libplc4.so usr/lib/libplc4.so
E: libnspr4: shlib-missing-in-control-file libnspr4.so usr/lib/libnspr4.so
W: libnspr4: unused-shlib-entry-in-control-file libplds4
W: libnspr4: unused-shlib-entry-in-control-file libnspr4
W: libnspr4: unused-shlib-entry-in-control-file libplc4

Ok, I think we can forget about all this. Lintian rules ;)

Bye, Mt.
