Package: linux-compiler-gcc-7-x86
Version: 4.14.2-1
Severity: minor
The linux-compiler-gcc-7-x86 package depends on GCC 7 but
declares in the description that it depends on GCC 6:
Package: linux-compiler-gcc-7-x86
Depends: gcc-7
Description: Compiler for Linux on x86 (meta-package)
This package depends on gcc 6 of the appropriate architecture for Linux on
amd64, i386 and x32.
I suggest changing the information to something like this:
Package: linux-compiler-gcc-x86
Depends: gcc-7
Description: Compiler for Linux on x86 (meta-package)
This package depends on GCC of the appropriate version and architecture
for Linux on amd64, i386 and x32.
I changed the package name and description thus:
/Package/s/gcc-7/gcc/
The version number is in depends already, not needed in package name?
This probably doesn't need to happen until the package name is next changed.
/Description/{n;s/gcc/GCC/}
GCC is an acronym for GNU Compiler Collection so it should be capitalised.
/Description/{n;s/ 6 / /;s/appropriate/& version and/}
Don't hard-code the version number so it never needs updating.
