Bug#926334: lintian: Does the SafeSEH check make sense for Mono/.NET DLLs?



Package: lintian
Version: 2.11.0
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainers,

two .NET-based projects which I am currently working on (dnlib, de4dot)
give me Lintian warnings such as

,----
| E: libdnlib2.1-cil: portable-executable-missing-security-features usr/lib/cli/dnlib-2.1/dnlib.dll SafeSEH
`----

The file in question, according to file(1) is a
,----
| PE32 executable (DLL) (console) Intel 80386 Mono/.Net assembly, for MS Windows
`----

which contains code that is JIT-compiled by the Mono runtime. In this
context, looking for the x86-specific SafeSEH feature does not make much
sense, does it?

Cheers,
-Hilko
