Bug#529924: duplicate-short-description between deb and udeb



Package: lintian
Version: 2.2.10
Severity: minor

Hi,

My package 'gnupg' generates the following info-level tag:

   duplicate-short-description gnupg gnupg-udeb

I believe this may be inappropriate where the description overlap is
between the deb and its associated udeb. In the Lintian report for this
tag I see a number of other packages that are tagged for this.

The packages in fact do the same, so that they share the description is
not a surprise. That one is a udeb is already flagged by other means like
the section and package-type fields.

cheers,
Thijs
