Bug#507967: lintian: internal error, useless info
Package: lintian
Version: 2.1.0
Severity: important
Dear all,
I was checking the latest texlive-extra package I built with lintian and
it gave me again and again with the following error:
...
internal error: command failed with error code 123
warning: collect info file-info about package texlive-fonts-extra: 512
warning: skipping check of binary package texlive-fonts-extra
W: texlive-humanities: spelling-error-in-description german German
md5sum: ./usr/share/texmf-texli: No such file or directory
internal error: command failed with error code 123
warning: collect info md5sums about package texlive-latex-extra: 512
warning: skipping check of binary package texlive-latex-extra
...
What looks very strange is the
md5sum: ./usr/share/texmf-texli: No such file or directory
because we only ship stuff in /usr/share/texmf-texlive/
where the two letters had been cut of I have no idea.
I checked the .debs with debdiff to the last version and nothing strange
turned up, so I assume it is a lintian error.
Can you please investigate?
Thanks a lot
