Bug#546174: lintian: check for duplicates such as 'file.gz' and 'file'
Package: lintian
Version: 1.24.2.1
Severity: wishlist
hi, today I found out that the package
cl-cffi contains both
/usr/share/doc/cl-cffi/spec/cffi-sys-spec.html
and
/usr/share/doc/cl-cffi/spec/cffi-sys-spec.html.gz
it would be nice if lintian would warn in such cases
a.
