Bug#357000: lintian: doesn't detect missing changelog|copyright
Package: lintian
Version: 1.23.15
Severity: normal
Hi,
I have accidentally built an exim4 package without
changelog/copyright. lintian should detect this.
$ ar p exim4_4.60-5_all.deb data.tar.gz | tar --list --gzip --file -
../
../usr/
../usr/share/
../usr/share/doc/
../usr/share/bug/
../usr/share/bug/exim4/
../usr/share/bug/exim4/script
../usr/share/doc/exim4
[10/510]mh@nechayev:~/chroot/sid-exim4/home/mh/exim4/build-area$
lintian exim4_4.60-5_i386.changes
[11/511]mh@nechayev:~/chroot/sid-exim4/home/mh/exim4/build-area$
Greetings
