Package: lintian
Version: 2.15.0
Severity: normal
The check ‘override_dh_auto_test-does-not-check-DEB_BUILD_OPTIONS’
triggers incorrectly when the ‘override_dh_auto_test’ target merely
invokes ‘dh_auto_test’ with different options.
=====
$ grep '^override_dh_auto_test:' --after-context 3 debian/rules
override_dh_auto_test:
dh_auto_test --buildsystem=makefile
$ lintian
[…]
I: python-daemon source: override_dh_auto_test-does-not-check-DEB_BUILD_OPTIONS (line 25)
[…]
=====
The manual page ‘dh(1)’ explains of “override targets” that:
The override target can then run the command with additional
options, or run entirely different commands instead.
The above usage is a normal use of override target to change the
command-line option with which ‘dh_auto_test’ is invoked. This does
not need to be further wrapped with a ‘DEB_BUILD_OPTIONS’ test,
because that is done when ‘dh_auto_test’ runs.
Please change Lintian so that this check is done only when the
‘override_dh_auto_test’ target contains commands *other than* a
‘dh_auto_test’ command. The logic could be:
* If this is an ‘override_dh_auto_test’ target:
* If there is exactly one command in the rule:
* If the command name is ‘dh_auto_test’:
* Do not inspect whether ‘DEB_BUILD_OPTIONS’ is tested.
* Otherwise (different command; or multiple commands):
* Inspect whether ‘DEB_BUILD_OPTIONS’ is tested. If not:
* Emit ‘override_dh_auto_test-does-not-check-DEB_BUILD_OPTIONS’.
