Hi,
see https://lintian.debian.org/full/debian-openoffice@lists.debian.org.html#libreoffice_1_x3a5.4.2-3.
Search for libreoffice-wiki-publisher.
You'll see that all jar-in-usr-share tags are overriden. But the override says:
$ cat libreoffice-wiki-publisher.lintian-overrides
libreoffice-wiki-publisher: jar-not-in-usr-share usr/lib/libreoffice/share/extensions/wiki-publisher/help/*/help.jar
That shouldn't match usr/lib/libreoffice/share/extensions/wiki-publisher/mediawiki.jar
but it apparently does..
That one's not even under help where one could say * matched it :)
Regards,
Rene

Hi Rene,
> You'll see that all jar-in-usr-share tags are overriden.
I do not see that with lintian on the command line. As you pointed out
in a follow-up report, the following tags are reported:
% ./frontend/lintian
/mirror/debian/pool/main/libr/libreoffice/libreoffice-wiki-publisher_1.2.0+LibO6.4.4-1_all.deb
W: libreoffice-wiki-publisher: jar-not-in-usr-share
usr/lib/libreoffice/share/extensions/wiki-publisher/mediawiki.jar
I: libreoffice-wiki-publisher: package-contains-empty-directory
usr/lib/libreoffice/share/extensions/wiki-publisher/license/
I: libreoffice-wiki-publisher: package-contains-empty-directory
usr/lib/libreoffice/share/extensions/wiki-publisher/registration/
N: 94 tags overridden (94 warnings)
Furthermore, I see on lintian.d.o:
W jar-not-in-usr-share
usr/lib/libreoffice/share/extensions/wiki-publisher/mediawiki.jar
while the override states:
libreoffice-wiki-publisher: jar-not-in-usr-share
usr/lib/libreoffice/share/extensions/wiki-publisher/help/*/help.jar
>From what I can tell, overrides are working as intended for the
installation package
libreoffice-wiki-publisher_1.2.0+LibO6.4.4-1_all.deb.
Closing. Please reopen if your bug report was closed in error.
Kind regards
Felix Lechner
