Package: lintian
Version: 1.23.7
Severity: minor
Tags: patch
While building a new version of the aegis Debian package I got the
"shell-script-fails-syntax-check" error for a couple of tk
scripts. The reason is that the "exec wish $0 ${1+"$@"}" hack is
located after the copyright which is more than 20 lines
long. Therefore I propose to increase the apparently arbitrary limit
of 20 for searching a exec-hack to 40. Patch below:
