Package: lintian
Version: 2.2.17
Severity: normal
Hi,
The tag maintainer-script-needs-depends-on-update-inetd recommends to depend
on either inet-superserver or update-inetd, when it fact the later is
redundant (a dependency on inet-superserver indirectly satisfies the
update-inetd dependency)
And of course the tag would have to be renamed to
maintainer-script-needs-depends-on-inet-superserver
Number of packages affected:
$ cat /var/lib/apt/lists/ftp.be.debian.org_debian_dists_unstable_main_binary-i386_Packages
| grep-dctrl -F Depends update-inetd -a --not -F Provides inet-superserver -s
Package | wc -l
41
Cheers,
Serafeim

Please ignore -- I completely missed that deamons may be configurable to run
via inetd or standalone (this report would make sense for deamons that can run
only via inetd). Apologies for the noise :-/
