Package: lintian
Version: 2.5.36.1
Severity: normal
Hello,
I'm currently preparing guessit 0.10.4-1, not uploaded yet but
available in the Python Modules Team's svn repository at:
svn://anonscm.debian.org/python-modules/packages/guessit/trunk
Lintian reports the "source-is-missing" error for
docs/_themes/__pycache__/flask_theme_support.cpython-34.pyc.
However, the source of this file is available in
docs/_themes/flask_theme_support.py.
In python3, the pyc files are in a __pycache__ file and their
filenames include the version of the compiler ("cpython-34" here). I
believe that this mechanism is not understood by lintian, which causes
this false positive. Most information about it can be found in the
following document:
https://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-3147/
Please let me know if you need more information.
Thanks for the awesome work you're doing on Lintian!
