Bug#1068324: lintian: patch-not-forwarded-upstream for upstream patches
Package: lintian
Version: 2.116.3
(at least bookworm’s) lintian complains about…
I: mksh source: patch-not-forwarded-upstream [debian/patches/typeset-p-fix.diff]
… for patches whose DEP 3 metadata clearly state they are a
cherry-pick or backport from upstream.
Here (cherry-pick):
Origin: commit:10065BC69BE555D6721
DEP 3 says the Forwarded header is only applicable for
patches that don’t originate upstream.
bye,
