When running lintian on a sarge system, these false positives do _not_ show up. So, this is a problem with some dependency of lintian. My prime suspect is perl, which went from 5.8.2 to 5.8.3. Reproducable with lintian 1.22.11 and e2fsprogs/uuid-dev 1.34+1.35-WIP-2004.01.31-1 > This did not use to be a problem, so I believe this was a recently > introduced bug in the lintian in sid.
