Hi Rafael,
There are legitimate cases where /usr/share/doc/$pkg/examples is a
symlink instead of a directory.
That should be fine already. Indeed, I just added such a test for
symlinks and it passes without any code changes:
https://salsa.debian.org/lintian/lintian/commit/1b148029d55c3091bd99993751cc5f9a674ae901
(It also does not trigger on, for example src:zsh.)
Thanks for the fix.
Why is this bug report tagged "moreinfo"?
Because the above commit isn't a "fix" for anything - it's a testcase to
prove that the existing code already does what you requested, with no
changes.
The "moreinfo" tag will therefore be requesting more details about your
failing case - most likely access to copies of the affected .deb files -
in order to see why it appears not to be working for you.
Regards,
Adam
