Lintian override or replicate files



Hi all,

There are some files like:
-man page
-.desktop file
-menu file
-menu icon
which are architecture-independent. However, if you put them inside the
"-data" package, lintian will complain (e.g. binary-without-manpage,
desktop-command-not-in-package, ...)

What is currently considered best practice:
-put them in the -data package and add lintian overrides
-leave them in the binary file, as they are small?

Thank you,
Ludovico
