Package: lintian
Version: 2.115.3
Severity: normal
I get:
I: xapian-omega: spelling-error-in-binary curren current [usr/bin/omindex]
That's not a spelling error though, it's from a list of HTML entity
names (¤ is "¤"):
https://html.spec.whatwg.org/multipage/named-characters.html#named-character-references
I'd suggest removing "curren" from the list.
Cheers,
Olly
