Bug#827623: RFS: luakit/2012.09.13-r1-9 ITA -- fast and small web browser extensible by Lua

I just want to give an update. I eliminated the on error that lintain was reporting and got the warnings down to 4. Once I clear all of them I will reload that package for review.

rican-linux@debian-ppc:~/src$ lintian -c luakit_2012.09.13-r1-9_powerpc.deb

W: luakit: hardening-no-relro usr/bin/luakit

W: luakit: manpage-has-useless-whatis-entry usr/share/man/man1/luakit.1.gz

W: luakit: script-not-executable usr/share/luakit/lib/markdown.lua

W: luakit: executable-not-elf-or-script usr/share/pixmaps/luakit.xpm

Thanks again for all the imput
