Re: strap, strap-base, lintian warnings solved



Hi Christoph,

thanks for your continuous work on strap.

I need to admit that the explanation does not fit the problem.  The
JAR file in the strap-base package ends up in

   /usr/lib/strap-base
        ^^^

but JAR files are arch-indep files.  I guess your intended to move it
rather to

   /usr/share/strap-base
        ^^^^^

at least according to your explanation in README.Debian.  If you really
do so the lintian warning should vanish.

The other problem you are listing in README.Debian (Java-Class-path)
should rather be put into an overrides file to *really* suppress the
warning.  Please read

  man dh_lintian

if you have no idea about these lintian-overrides.

You can perfectly ignore this.  If you are really bored by this warning
you might like to install lintian from unstable via

   sudo apt-get -t unstable install lintian

Yes.  I admit I do not verify 'P:' type lintian messages.
