Bug#659108: lintian: suggestion: warn when short description starts with article
Source: lintian
Severity: wishlist
Hi,
just saw it again, so here I suggest a lintian warning when
a package’s short description starts with an article or so,
that is, a/an/the and possibly others.
For that matter, I’d like to see short descriptions that
actually explain what packages do… bad example:
libgnet2.0-0 - GNet network library
Medium example:
libgetfem4++ - GETFEM++ generic finite element library
Good example:
gmusicbrowser - graphic jukebox for large collections of mp3/ogg/flac/mpc files
But that’s not lintian’s task…
bye,
//mirabilos
