Package: lintian Version: 2.16.0 Severity: normal Hi,
this is a follow-up to #931889. This bug report has been marked as fixed by downgrading the severity from important to minor. The underlying issue is still, that this test is currently way too primitive and produces too many false positives to be actually useful. In #931889 I already listed some cases, where those false-positives are triggered.
