I'm a little confused here. My package libtk-tablematrix-perl is arch-dependent, since it contains a .so built from C code. The Perl installer installs the associated .pm files to /usr/lib/perl5. If I leave things as-is, I get these warnings from lintian: W: libtk-tablematrix-perl: package-installs-nonbinary-perl-in-usr-lib-perl5 usr/lib/perl5/Tk/TableMatrix.pm W: libtk-tablematrix-perl: package-installs-nonbinary-perl-in-usr-lib-perl5 usr/lib/perl5/Tk/TableMatrix/Spreadsheet.pm W: libtk-tablematrix-perl: package-installs-nonbinary-perl-in-usr-lib-perl5 usr/lib/perl5/Tk/TableMatrix/SpreadsheetHideRows.pm If I move the entire Tk directory to /usr/share/perl5, lintian shuts up, but I get this warning from linda, instead: libtk-tablematrix-perl; Architecture-depedant package installs into /usr/share/perl5 What should I do here? Move the .pm files into /usr/share and file a bug against linda, or leave the files in /usr/lib and file a bug against lintian? I don't see that the Perl policy has anything specific to say on this point (but I might have missed it). Thanks... KEN -- Kenneth J.
