Still, for CPAN and pypi packages there *is* nothing you can do about it, so I think overriding the correct lintian is the right thing to do.

Sounds like something for the screen masking functionality. We already have for example: N: masked by screen python/egg/metadata M: python3-rasterio: package-contains-documentation-outside-usr-share-doc [usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/rasterio-1.5.0.dist-info/top_level.txt] We could add something like: N: masked by screen perl/cpan/watch M: libgeo-gpx-perl source: debian-watch-does-not-check-openpgp-signature [debian/watch] Kind Regards, Bas -- PGP Key ID: 4096R/6750F10AE88D4AF1 Fingerprint: 8182 DE41 7056 408D 6146 50D1 6750 F10A E88D 4AF1
