Package: lintian
Version: 2.4.3
Severity: wishlist
Hello,
I have a package [1] with a README.html, which is an HTML version of a
regular README. Lintian detects it as a document to be registered with
doc-base. I think this is incorrect, because README files are not
supposed to be registered, and the fact that one is in HTML format
should not change that.
[1] http://tanguy.ortolo.eu/deb/libasyncns/libasyncns-dev_0.8-1_amd64.deb
Could you add a check to exclude README.*, NEWS.* and changelog.* from
the possible-documentation-but-no-doc-base-registration check?
Regards,

* Summary of tag changes:
+ Added:
- unknown-multi-arch-value
- package-needs-versioned-debhelper-build-depends
+ Removed:
- old-versioned-python-dependency
.
* checks/binaries:
+ [ADB] Update binary-from-other-architecture's tests in line with the
changes to filename output introduced in 2.5.0~rc1.

* checks/changes-file.desc:
+ [NT] Added oneiric as valid Ubuntu distribution. Thanks to Benjamin
Drung for the patch. (Closes: #617227)
* checks/deb-format:
+ [NT] Removed assumption that there was always a changelog in a binary
with a data.tar.lzma member.
* checks/debhelper:
+ [NT] Reduced package-lacks-versioned-build-depends-on-debhelper to a
pedantic tag. It is now only emitted for debhelper compat levels of
7 or less, since even oldstable ships with debhelper 7.
+ [NT] Added package-needs-versioned-debhelper-build-depends, which
replaces package-lacks-versioned-build-depends-on-debhelper old
task of warning if a missing versioned depends may lead to a build
failure. Currently this is only emitted for compat 8 (or higher).
+ [NT] Stopped emitting tags for using dh_* (and dh) if these scripts
is in debhelper 7 (or earlier).
* checks/fields{,.desc}:
+ [NT] Recognise Multi-Arch as a known binary field. (Closes: #617816)
+ [NT] Fixed typo in a tag description.

Python team. The tag was outdated and most instances of it was
false positives. Thanks to Piotr Ożarowski and Jakub Wilk for
the report and clarification. (Closes: #619487)
+ [NT] Accepted patch from Joachim Breitner to support new Haskell
package naming scheme.
+ [NT] Added Built-Using as a known binary and udeb field. This
field is supported with dpkg 1.16.0.

+ [NT] Also check files in /etc/cron.d for dots in filenames. Thanks
to Thijs Kinkhorst for the report and patch. (Closes: #615072)
+ [NT] Applied patch to also detect copies of CKEditor. Thanks to
Jeroen Dekkers for the report and the patch. (Closes: #616505)
+ [NT] Fixed a regression in caused by inconsistent prefixes.

+ [NT] Removed assumption that there is always files in usr/share.

أحمد المحمودي (Ahmed El-Mahmoudy) for the report.
(Closes: #618921)

registered with doc-base (e.g. README.html). Thanks to
Tanguy Ortolo for the report. (Closes: #617266)
+ [NT] Accepted patch from Joachim Breitner to support new Haskell
package naming scheme. (Closes: #616403)
* checks/patch-systems.desc:
+ [NT] Reduced unneeded-build-dep-on-quilt to a pedantic tag,
since some people keep the dependency on quilt to ease
backporting for older releases.
.
* data/changelog-file/ubuntu-dists:
+ [NT] Added oneiric as valid Ubuntu distribution. Thanks to Benjamin
Drung for the patch.
* data/common/source-fields:

* t/tests/*:
+ [NT] Modified some versioned dependencies that the new dpkg will
not consider valid from 1.16.0. (Closes: #619290)
