Package: lintian
Version: 2.116.3
Severity: normal
X-Debbugs-Cc: davidmohammed@gmail.com

Dear Maintainer,

   * What led up to the situation?
building budgie-control-center v1.2.0 currently in unstable produces a lintian
warning that seems to be contrary to policy [no-manual-page]
   * What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or
     ineffective)?
sbuild budgie-control-center
   * What was the outcome of this action?
warning messages
Running lintian...
W: budgie-control-center: no-manual-page [usr/libexec/budgie-cc-remote-login-helper]
W: budgie-control-center: no-manual-page [usr/libexec/budgie-control-center-print-renderer]
   * What outcome did you expect instead?
No warnings since policy states that /usr/libexec isnt a path item that should trigger
this warning

Fixed by:

lintian (2.117.0) unstable; urgency=low
...
  [ Simon McVittie ]
  * Add test coverage for #1027744.
  * Treat man pages as optional for executables in /usr/libexec/.
  * Add test asserting that man pages are not required for libexec binaries.
