package: lintian Hi, I stumbled over http://lintian.debian.org/tags/symlink-has-double-slash.html and wonder why it's severity: important and not pendantic. Can you explain? It doesnt seem to break anything but is only aesthetic, so :) This symlink contains two successive slashes (//). This is in violation of policy, where it is stated that symlinks should be as short as possible If you use debhelper, running dh_link after creating the package structure will fix this problem for you. Refer to Debian Policy Manual section 10.5 (Symbolic links) for details. Severity: important, Certainty: certain Policy 10.5 only mentions that links with foo/../bar are deprecated. regards, Holger
