Package: lintian
Version: 2.5.14
Severity: minor
I'm aware that squeeze is no longer stable, and therefore probably not
supported. Regardless, I just installed 2.5.14 on squeeze. It
installed without error, but appears to exit with an error message,
see below.
The error in question refers to the line
STDOUT->autoflush;
Since the dependencies were satisfied, this may reflect some
versioning issue.
Regards, Faheem
