Bug#838807: false positive source-is-missing can't be overridden

[Daniel Pocock <daniel@pocock.pro>]

Package: lintian
Version: 2.5.46~bpo8+1
X-Debbugs-Cc: ftpmaster@ftp-master.debian.org


The homer-api package declares a lintian-override:

https://anonscm.debian.org/cgit/pkg-voip/homer-api.git/tree/debian/source/lintian-overrides?h=debian/sid

# this file is not minified, just has some long lines
homer-api source: source-is-missing apidoc/html/api_data.js


The file in question is not a minified JavaScript:

https://anonscm.debian.org/cgit/pkg-voip/homer-api.git/tree/apidoc/html/api_data.js?h=debian/sid


Lintian still reports the error, despite the override:

https://ftp-master.debian.org/new/homer-api_5.0.6+dfsg2-2.html#source-lintian

E: homer-api source: source-is-missing apidoc/html/api_data.js line
