Bug#887428: lintian: Use of uninitialized value in string ne at /usr/share/perl5/Lintian/Collect/Package.pm line 579
Package: lintian
Version: 2.5.70
Severity: normal
Dear Maintainer,
* What led up to the situation?
I'm building a package. After the build is done, lintian is called and writes a lot of these messages:
Use of uninitialized value $target in string ne at /usr/share/perl5/Lintian/Collect/Package.pm line 579, <$_[...]> line 2798.
Use of uninitialized value in string ne at /usr/share/perl5/Lintian/Collect/Package.pm line 579, <$_[...]> line 2798.
Use of uninitialized value $target in string ne at /usr/share/perl5/Lintian/Collect/Package.pm line 579, <$_[...]> line 2798.
Use of uninitialized value in string ne at /usr/share/perl5/Lintian/Collect/Package.pm line 579, <$_[...]> line 2798.
I'm pretty shure this was introduced in 2.5.68.
