Package: lintian Version: 1.23.41 Severity: wishlist Tags: patch There is a regression in the 'arch-dep-package-has-big-usr-share' test, which is causing a false negative in the "binary" testcase. It seems that the "binary" test has grown in size over time, such that the size of files *outside* of /usr/share/ ensure that the files *inside* /usr/share do not meet the threshold percentage as required by the testcase! The patch is simple: Index: testset/binary/debian/rules =================================================================== --- testset/binary/debian/rules (revision 1122) +++ testset/binary/debian/rules (working copy) @@ -66,7 +66,7 @@ echo boe > $(tmp)/usr/bar2 ln $(tmp)/usr/bar2 $(tmp)/usr/share/baz - dd if=/dev/zero of=$(tmp)/usr/share/binary/largefile bs=1024 count=2000 + dd if=/dev/zero of=$(tmp)/usr/share/binary/largefile bs=1024 count=2020 install -d debian/binary-data/DEBIAN install -d debian/binary-data/usr/share/doc (2020 is below the threshold hard limit of 2048, so the hard/soft limit distinction is still being excecised in the testcase.)

Thanks. Yeah, all the static copies of hello added up to a lot. I fixed this a slightly different way by using a hard link for two binaries that were identical. -- Russ Allbery (rra@debian.org) <http://www.eyrie.org/~eagle/>
