Package: lintian Version: 2.5.120 Severity: minor Dear Maintainer,
I noticed that a link to the Debian Policy Manual from the Lintian tag page https://lintian.debian.org/tags/description-too-long.html points to https://www.debian.org/doc/debian-policy/#the-single-line-synopsis which references an invalid anchor. The correct URL should now be https://www.debian.org/doc/debian-policy/ch-binary.html#the-single-line-synopsis I then noticed that all Debian Policy URLs in manual-references use URLs of the first form, all of which are now invalid. Maybe these URLs used to be valid, if the Debian Policy Manual used to be presented as a single HTML page? In its current form all of these cross references are broken and not helpful to a new user. -- System Information: Debian Release: buster/sid APT prefers testing-debug APT policy: (900, 'testing-debug'), (900, 'testing'), (800, 'unstable-debug'), (800, 'unstable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Foreign Architectures: i386 Kernel: Linux 4.19.0-1-amd64 (SMP w/8 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8), LANGUAGE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /usr/bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) LSM: AppArmor: enabled Versions of packages lintian depends on: ii binutils 2.31.1-11 ii bzip2 1.0.6-9 ii diffstat 1.62-1 ii dpkg 1.19.2 ii dpkg-dev 1.19.2 ii file 1:5.34-2 ii gettext 0.19.8.1-9 ii gpg 2.2.12-1 ii intltool-debian 0.35.0+20060710.4 ii libapt-pkg-perl 0.1.34+b1 ii libarchive-zip-perl 1.64-1 ii libcgi-pm-perl 4.40-1 ii libclass-accessor-perl 0.51-1 ii libclone-perl 0.41-1+b1 pn libdigest-sha-perl <none> ii libdpkg-perl 1.19.2 ii libemail-valid-perl 1.202-1 ii libfile-basedir-perl 0.08-1 ii libipc-run-perl 20180523.0-1 ii liblist-moreutils-perl 0.416-1+b4 ii libparse-debianchangelog-perl 1.2.0-13 ii libtext-levenshtein-perl 0.13-1 ii libtimedate-perl 2.3000-2 ii liburi-perl 1.74-1 ii libxml-simple-perl 2.25-1 ii libyaml-libyaml-perl 0.75+repack-1 ii man-db 2.8.4-3 ii patchutils 0.3.4-2 ii perl 5.28.1-3 ii t1utils 1.41-3 ii xz-utils 5.2.2-1.3 Versions of packages lintian recommends: ii libperlio-gzip-perl 0.19-1+b5 Versions of packages lintian suggests: pn binutils-multiarch <none> ii libhtml-parser-perl 3.72-3+b3 ii libtext-template-perl 1.53-1 -- no debconf information
