Bug#262749: Please modify the po-debconf test
Package: lintian
Version: 1.23.2
Severity: wishlist
I maintain a package that provides translations for a wrapper-script
(I'm doing my best to always make everything possible to localise),
flight-of-the-amazon-queen. The script is only provided as part of the
package, hence it's in the debian subdirectory. And, as can be expected,
the translations are in debian/po.
This, however, causes lintian to believe that what I'm really doing is
using po-debconf to translate debconf questions, and hence it warns
about a missing POTFILES.in.
Wouldn't it be possible to modify lintian to at least check for use of
po-debconf before making the assumption that the debian/po directory is
meant for debconf translations?
