Bug#864555: lintian: please use a more reliable heuristic than line length to detect source-is-missing
Package: lintian
Version: 2.5.50.4
Severity: normal
-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----
Hash: SHA256
On polymake 3.1 source lintian reports:
E: polymake source: source-is-missing external/js/renderers/SVGRenderer.js line length is 258 characters (>256)
An examination reveals this to be a false positive. The file is not minified, but happens to contain long lines like
_svgNode.setAttribute( 'style', 'fill: none; stroke: ' + material.color.getStyle() + '; stroke-width: ' + material.linewidth + '; stroke-opacity: ' + material.opacity + '; stroke-linecap: ' + material.linecap + '; stroke-linejoin: ' + material.linejoin );
One can argue about whether that's nice programming style, but that's not really lintian's job.
Presumably that's the way the upstream author likes to edit code.
