That is not quite what I am seeing. I believe these overrides are
incorrectly listed as source overrides in d/source/lintian-overrides.
[1] The tags are for installation packages, so their overrides in the
source package remain unused (one unrelated tag was removed):
% bin/lintian /mirror/debian/pool/main/i/iio-sensor-proxy/iio-sensor-proxy_3.0-1.dsc
I: iio-sensor-proxy source: unused-override no-manual-page
usr/bin/monitor-sensor
I: iio-sensor-proxy source: unused-override no-manual-page
usr/sbin/iio-sensor-proxy
I: iio-sensor-proxy source: unused-override
systemd-service-file-missing-documentation-key
lib/systemd/system/iio-sensor-proxy.service
P: iio-sensor-proxy source: renamed-tag binary-without-manpage =>
no-manual-page in line 2
P: iio-sensor-proxy source: renamed-tag binary-without-manpage =>
no-manual-page in line 3
As a courtesy, Lintian also reminds the user that the tag was renamed.
For the installation package, on the other hand, Lintian reports (some
unrelated tags were removed):
% bin/lintian /mirror/debian/pool/main/i/iio-sensor-proxy/iio-sensor-proxy_3.0-1_amd64.deb
W: iio-sensor-proxy: no-manual-page usr/bin/monitor-sensor
W: iio-sensor-proxy: no-manual-page usr/sbin/iio-sensor-proxy
I: iio-sensor-proxy:
package-supports-alternative-init-but-no-init.d-script
lib/systemd/system/iio-sensor-proxy.service
I: iio-sensor-proxy: systemd-service-file-missing-documentation-key
lib/systemd/system/iio-sensor-proxy.service
I: iio-sensor-proxy: systemd-service-file-missing-install-key
lib/systemd/system/iio-sensor-proxy.service
As far as I can tell, Lintian reports what was intended. Can you
please try moving the file in [1] to
debian/iio-sensor-proxy.lintian-overrides?
Kind regards
