Package: lintian
Version: 2.2.16
Severity: normal
Hi,
trying to run lintian on evolution-data-server_2.28.0-1_amd64.changes I get
weird errors:
corsac@hidalgo: lintian -i evolution-data-server_2.28.0-1_amd64.changes
E: evolution-data-server source: weak-library-dev-dependency libcamel1.2-dev on libedataserver1.2-dev
N:
N: The given package appears to be a shared library -dev package, but the
N: dependency on what seems to be a corresponding shared library package
N: does not force the same package version. To ensure that compiling and
N: linking works properly, and that the symlinks in the -dev package point
N: to the correct files in the shared library package, a -dev package
N: should normally depend on the exact same version of the shared library
N: package.

N: 17 tags overridden (2 errors, 15 warnings)
libcamel1.2-dev and libedataserver1.2-dev (and following examples) are not
the same library and both are -dev packages so I don't think the error is
accurate.
Is there a problem in lintian or am I missing something?
Cheers,

Description:
lintian - Debian package checker
Closes: 547773
Changes:
lintian (2.2.17) unstable; urgency=medium
.
* Urgency medium to beat libclass-accessor-perl into testing.
.
* checks/control-file:
+ [RA] Correctly exclude lib*-dev dependencies on other lib*-dev
packages that contain a version number. Thanks, Yves-Alexis Perez.
(Closes: #547773)
.
* debian/control:
+ [RA] Explicitly depend on libclass-accessor-perl, since we use it
directly. (libparse-debianchangelog-perl was implicitly ensuring it
was installed.)
