Package: lintian Version: 2.5.44 Severity: normal X-Debbugs-CC: Osamu Aoki <osamu@debian.org>, Santiago Vila <sanvila@debian.org> debmake was removed from Debian in 2008 and then the name was hijacked in 2013 by a new package with a new codebase that AFAICT does a completely different thing to the earlier debmake. https://tracker.debian.org/news/453372 https://bugs.debian.org/462978 https://tracker.debian.org/news/453375 Unfortunately lintian still warns about depending on debmake despite it being a completely new codebase, please remove it from that list.
