Hi Neil, Apologies, but I am now more confused than ever. When I look at your link, ie.
https://github.com/Linaro/pkg-lava-server/blob/master/debian/control#L79 I see: libjs-jquery-ui, python3:any, whilst you quoted in your previous mail: libjs-jquery-ui, python3 | python3-all | python3-dev | python3-all-dev I also remain confused why we are using python3 here as the .deb I downloaded had a Python 2.x shebang. > Maybe this is a bug in dpkg: […] > Lintian needs to check for this behaviour of dpkg-gencontrol and skip > the python-script-but-no-python-dep check if there are no scripts in > usr/bin or usr/sbin in the binary package. dpkg seems to not care > about /usr/share. I am not sure what behaviour of dpkg you believe this is triggering and/or what is so special about /usr/share. Perhaps you are not calling dh-python entirely correctly? I am unsure and I would would have to leave it with you to debug. I still don't see (or, more likely, comprehend) any bug in Lintian here, sorry — the generated .debs I have seen appear to be triggering this correctly.
