Yes, I was misunderstanding the lintian report as referring to the binary package rather than the source package; I thought there was some lintian magic that was ensuring that binaries were actually rebuilt from source that triggered the error. Apparently the latex2rtf binary was inadvertently included in the upstream tarball. Or, it was; the release was updated yesterday to remove it. I just reassigned the bug to my package and am preparing to upload a fix. Sorry for troubling you! Chris
