Package: lintian Severity: wishlist I'm looking at a very simple package, src:stepic at version 0.3-6.
head of d/control:
|Source: stepic
|Section: graphics
|Priority: optional
|Maintainer: Scott Kitterman <sc...@kitterman.com>
|Build-Depends: debhelper (>= 9~), python3-all, dh-python, quilt
|Standards-Version: 4.1.3
full d/rules:
|#!/usr/bin/make -f
|
|%:
| dh $@ --with python3,quilt --buildsystem=pybuild
|
|override_dh_python3:
| dh_python3 -p stepic
|
|override_dh_installchangelogs:
| rm -rf $(CURDIR)/debian/stepic/usr/share/doc/stepic/COPYING
| dh_installchangelogs
|
|override_dh_clean:
| rm -rf $(CURDIR)/build
| dh_clean
Here that `--with quilt` (and related quilt build dep) is totally
useless (actually, its behaviour may be confusing to some).
This is of course a '3.0 (quilt)' source package (and this proposed
check should be limited to those kind of sources).
Please emit a severity:wishlist tag about that useless dh-addon (ISTR
(but should be confirmed) that once the `--with quilt` is removed there
is already a tag warning about the usekess build-dep).
