Compiled easter egg in a arch:all package



Hi mentors,

I'm currently trying to package PlayOnLinux (see ITP #485149) and there is one lintian error remaining. The program is written in python and bash, and is therefore arch:all. But upstream added an easter-egg in C in the archive, and a built version of the easter-egg. That is why I get this last lintian error : arch-dependent-file-in-usr-share.

I have contacted upstream about this, and they say the easter-egg is not really important and is not part of the program. How would you handle this easter-egg ? Should I simply remove the built version ? Should I build it and make PlayOnLinux arch:any ? I guess the second solution would be a waste of buildd time, isn't it ?

Regards,
Bertrand
