Lintian messages #37

Can I assume the lintian errors are due to #40 ? I don't think we can fix the soname, The last warning seems weird. Isn't that how you're supposed to install libraries? Or am I misunderstanding something? |
I think it's important to include the man pages. For the other two, I think Debian's recomendation is that cfengine3 should be split into two separate packages. One package would be How crazy would it be to split it like that? If it's trivial, or very easy then I guess, why not? But if it's anything more than trivial or very easy then I would rather just override the warnings and ignore it. |
Also, for reference, Lintian has (at least) four types of messages. Notice, info, warning and errors. We've never had any lintian errors, they've always been at warning or below. |
I'd like to have the option of using the profiler. There are lots of other debian packages that squelch or do nothing about each of these messages, so I'm fine doing that as well, unless there's strong objection raised by Debian. |
@bahamat +1 |
Splitting off libpromises for the sake of a warning is IMO not worth the effort, so I'll go with @bahamat |
In that case I'm assigning to myself and I'll configure a lintian override for those two messages. |
I've now merged in a new override that takes care of both of the libpromises messages. The last thing is the man pages then it'll be done. Ted had a good idea for creating a new acceptance test that produces the man pages. I'll use that as a last resort if I can't do it directly in |
I commented in cfengine/core#1059 and cfengine/core#1037 as well because they seem to be blocking each other to block the @basvandervlies patch. |
Since the only thing left is the missing man pages #40 specifically addresses that, I think this issue can be considered closed. |
This issue will track overall progress on Lintian messages.
