Hello
It took me a while to figure out why my overrides do not work. I don't
know if lintian or the docs are wrong but adjusting the docs is
sufficient in this case.
bye,

Changes:
lintian (1.23.3) unstable; urgency=low
.
The ``the others must be busy releasing Sarge or something'' release,
prepared by yours truly
.
* checks/conffiles.desc:
+ Note the most likely cause for duplicate-conffile in the description
(thanks Chris Anderson for running into this problem and asking me
about it)
* checks/copyright-file:
+ Revert the extra pedantic check introduced in 1.23.0 that
complained about unstrict dependencies when one as a
/usr/share/doc/<package> that is a symlink (Closes: #249414)
* checks/debconf:
+ Don't warn when the Choices field of a debconf question is
not translated, often it makes no sense to translate it
(Closes: #262649)
* checks/debhelper:
+ dh-make also creates sample files named .EX, so make that check
case-insensitive (Closes: #251262)
* checks/fields.desc:
+ Adjust package-has-a-duplicate-relation to warning, and note that
this sometimes happens to you when using ${shlibs:Depends}, and you
shouldn't bother too much if that's the case (Closes: #274286)
Thanks Peter Eisentraut for the suggestion
+ Fix English language depends-on-essential-package-without-using-version,
thanks to Peter Eisentrautf for noticing (Closes: #261603)
+ [FL] Clone depends-on-essential-package-without-using-version as
build-depends-on-essential-package-without-using-version to give
correct policy reference (Closes: #261602)
* checks/init.d:
+ Don't warn for missing init.d scripts in package and conffile list
if a variable is used instead of a real name (Closes: #264218)
* checks/manpages.desc:
+ Demote binary-without-manpage to warning, and adjust description,
to be consistent with policy, which says a manpage should be available
(and doesn't use "must" for it). Thanks to Robert Millan for his patch
(Closes: #271014)
* checks/nmu.desc:
+ Note in source-nmu-has-incorrect-version-number's description that
the mistake could also be the other way around (Closes: #258604)
* checks/po-debconf:
+ Don't give missing-file-from-potfile-in on empty lines
(Thanks Adam Conrad for noticing)
* checks/scripts:
+ The php commandline interpreter is now provided by php4-cli, and
not php4-cgi, update dependency check accordingly (Closes: #268077)
+ Give an error if the 'config' script uses a non-essential
interpreter (Closes: #274832)
* checks/shared-libraries:
+ Ignore comments in shlibs files (Closes: #275124)
.
* doc/lintian.sgml:
+ Document that you can use comments in overrides (Closes: #87805)
.
* frontend/lintian:
+ Fix overrides so that they allow all of (1) <package> <type>:,
(2) <package>:, and (3) <nothing> as prefix to tags you want to
override, and modify documentation accordingly. This used to be buggy
(Closes: #261435)
