- From: Frank Küster <frank@debian.org>

Package: lintian
Version: 1.23.8
Severity: normal
Lintian warns about "executable-not-elf-or-script" on tetex-base's
thumbpdf.pl and uniqleaf.pl. Both contain a "magic perl header"
eval '(exit $?0)' && eval 'exec perl -S $0 ${1+"$@"}' && eval 'exec perl -S $0 $argv:q'
if 0;
use strict;
It should either accept that header, or tell me why it is wrong. I know
that many trying-to-be-portable perl scripts use such a header.
Regards, Frank

No, actually I didn't, because lintian doesn't work with current tar.
And I failed to check the changelog; I just assumed that somebody would
have posted to the bug that the change is reverted.
Sorry for the noise,
Frank
