Package: lintian
Version: 1.24.2
Severity: normal
Hello,
lintian does not complain anymore on a distribution UNRELEASED in
the changelog, see:
19:35 vincent@tanyaivinco ~/packages/result lintian stormbaancoureur_2.1.5-2.1_amd64.changes
W: stormbaancoureur-data: debian-copyright-line-too-long line 4
W: stormbaancoureur: debian-copyright-line-too-long line 4
19:35 vincent@tanyaivinco ~/packages/result cat stormbaancoureur_2.1.5-2.1_amd64.changes | grep Distribution
Distribution: UNRELEASED
This definitely was detected before - and I came to rely upon it. I'm unable
to check if it applies only to this particular build or if it is more
general. In any case, it is painful.
I keep the files around in case you need them, but I can't attach
them all, they are too big.
Regards,
Vincent

Let's close it. If it comes up again we can reconsider.
