Dear Maintainer,
In qtbase-opensource-src, I have the following file:
$ cat debian/libqt5core5a.install
#! /usr/bin/dh-exec
[any-i386] usr/lib/${DEB_HOST_MULTIARCH}/sse2/libQt5Core.so.*
usr/lib/${DEB_HOST_MULTIARCH}/libQt5Core.so.*
Lintian emits this informational tag:
I: qtbase-opensource-src source: dh-exec-useless-usage debian/libqt5core5a.install "usr/lib/${DEB_HOST_MULTIARCH}/libQt5Core.so.*"
Yes, this line would work with pure debhelper, but I need dh-exec for the
first line, not for the second one.
(In this particular case, I could use a debian/libqt5core5a.install.i386 file,
but there are more complicate files in qtbase so I need dh-exec anyway.)
So please emit this tag only if none of the lines uses dh-exec specific
constructions (such as [architecture] markers).
