Bug#1005326: no-code-sections triggered on non-ELF files

[Marc Dequènes (duck) <duck@duckcorp.org>]

Package: lintian
Version: 2.114.0


Quack,

no-code-sections is triggered on dxvk, and also on wine, but these are 
not ELF files since it's targeted for Windows. Of course an override is 
possible but here there's an obvious way to avoid a false positive since 
readelf fails with "readelf: Error: Not an ELF file - it has the wrong 
magic bytes at the start", or maybe by using `objdump -a` or some other 
method to first check the archive format (I'm really not an expert in 
this area). Could you consider improving the check?

Regards.
