Bug#534942: diversion-for-unknown-file: false positives if output redirection is used



Package: lintian
Version: 2.2.12
Severity: normal

Hi,

the diversion-for-unknown-file check produces false positives if
output redirection is used in the dpkg-divert invokation:

nvidia-glx: diversion-for-unknown-file usr/lib/libGL.so.1.2>/dev/null preinst:89

for the following command:

dpkg-divert --add --rename --package nvidia-glx --divert /usr/lib/nvidia/libGL.so.1.2.xlibmesa /usr/lib/libGL.so.1.2 > /dev/null
