few lintian questions
Hi,
In debugging the lintian errors for transcribers, the following errors
occured, for which I don't know clean solutions:
shell-script-fails-syntax-check ./usr/lib/transcriber/tcl/Main.tcl
This is in fact a tcl-hacked sh-bang script. Somehow, tcl never knows
where it is located and tcl-programmers seem to use the following hack:
#!/bin/sh
# -*-tcl-*-\
exec wish "$0" ${1:+"$@"}
... tcl code...
non-standard-dir-perm var/lib/transcriber/ 0777 != 0755
This is a directory where users can store audio signal shaped
temporarily. These files tend to be large, and need some time to live
from one invocation to another. I use a cron-job to clean up files
older than a week, and I use /var/lib rather than /tmp because the files
may be large.
There is the potential danger, though, that users fill /var filesystem
space with write-all access.
Any suggestions?
