Debian Policy often lags behind best practices. It's not necessarily a disagreement, just that the process to update policy hasn't concluded. > I found bug #736360 and dh_doxygen really interesting, but still kind > of confused. dh_doxygen did not mention this embedding problem in its > manpage, and those Debian bug reports did not give a final solution > either. So what should I do? Just override the lintian warning? Sorry, dh_doxygen is different from the jquery issue. I suggest: 1) override the jquery warning, with a comment pointing to README.jquery (there is a special format for lintian override comments) 2) ensure that dh_doxygen is run after you build the documentation. It does various things like symlink template files. -- Sean Whitton
