Bug#877905: lintian: False positive for dh-exec-script-without-dh-exec-features
Package: lintian
Version: 2.5.54
The following working dh-exec file (from gpm 1.20.7-3, currently in
Experimental) triggers the lintian warning
dh-exec-script-without-dh-exec-features despite it clearly uses dh-exec
features:
---8<---
#!/usr/bin/dh-exec
contrib/control/gpm_has_mouse_control usr/lib/gpm/
contrib/scripts/microtouch-setup => usr/sbin/gpm-microtouch-setup
debian/gpm.apm => etc/apm/event.d/gpm
src/prog/mouse-test => usr/sbin/gpm-mouse-test
src/gpm usr/sbin/
src/prog/mev usr/bin/
--->8---
Reason seems to be that the file uses tabs instead of simple blanks in
front of the "=>" arrow.
I think, I'll already found the code which causes this, so I'll very
likely add a commit to fix this soon.
