these files?
If the scripts are not directly executable, you can remove the
#!<interpreter> line from them. That should make the warning go away.
It would be better to talk with upstream so he does that. Meanwhile,
patches can be used, but I don't think this warning is grave enough to
make that a necessity.
W: <package>: extra-license-file -- There are several LICENSE files
scattered throughout the package and I have documented them in the
copyright file. Do I need to do anything with these? Should I remove
them or is there a way to ignore them?
If they are common licenses, they shouldn't be part of the resulting
package. If the package uses make install and they are installed as part
of that, you can rm them after that line so they do not appear in the
package.
