Package: lintian Version: 2.88.0 Severity: minor Lintian produces a false-positive pedantic repeated-path-segment tag for Perl modules that use File::ShareDir (a Perl mechanism to provide static data files for a Perl module in a location that Perl can find at runtime across all supported platforms).
Example from a personal package not yet in Debian: P: docknot: repeated-path-segment share usr/share/perl5/auto/share/module/ P: docknot: repeated-path-segment share usr/share/perl5/auto/share/module/App-DocKnot/ P: docknot: repeated-path-segment share usr/share/perl5/auto/share/module/App-DocKnot/licenses.json P: docknot: repeated-path-segment share usr/share/perl5/auto/share/module/App-DocKnot/licenses/ P: docknot: repeated-path-segment share usr/share/perl5/auto/share/module/App-DocKnot/licenses/BSD-3-clause-or-GPL-1+ P: docknot: repeated-path-segment share usr/share/perl5/auto/share/module/App-DocKnot/licenses/Expat P: docknot: repeated-path-segment share usr/share/perl5/auto/share/module/App-DocKnot/licenses/Perl P: docknot: repeated-path-segment share usr/share/perl5/auto/share/module/App-DocKnot/templates/ P: docknot: repeated-path-segment share usr/share/perl5/auto/share/module/App-DocKnot/templates/readme-md.tmpl P: docknot: repeated-path-segment share usr/share/perl5/auto/share/module/App-DocKnot/templates/readme.tmpl P: docknot: repeated-path-segment share usr/share/perl5/auto/share/module/App-DocKnot/templates/thread.tmpl -- System Information: Debian Release: bullseye/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (990, 'unstable'), (500, 'unstable-debug'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 5.7.0-2-amd64 (SMP w/8 CPU threads) Kernel taint flags: TAINT_PROPRIETARY_MODULE, TAINT_OOT_MODULE, TAINT_UNSIGNED_MODULE Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8), LANGUAGE not set Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) LSM: AppArmor: enabled Versions of packages lintian depends on: ii binutils 2.35-1 ii bzip2 1.0.8-4 ii diffstat 1.63-1 ii dpkg 1.20.5 ii dpkg-dev 1.20.5 ii file 1:5.38-5 ii gettext 0.19.8.1-10 ii gpg 2.2.20-1 ii intltool-debian 0.35.0+20060710.5 ii libapt-pkg-perl 0.1.36+b3 ii libarchive-zip-perl 1.68-1 ii libcapture-tiny-perl 0.48-1 ii libclass-xsaccessor-perl 1.19-3+b5 ii libclone-perl 0.45-1 ii libconfig-tiny-perl 2.24-1 ii libcpanel-json-xs-perl 4.19-1 ii libdata-dpath-perl 0.58-1 ii libdata-validate-domain-perl 0.10-1 ii libdevel-size-perl 0.83-1+b1 ii libdpkg-perl 1.20.5 ii libemail-address-xs-perl 1.04-1+b2 ii libfile-basedir-perl 0.08-1 ii libfile-find-rule-perl 0.34-1 ii libfont-ttf-perl 1.06-1 ii libhtml-parser-perl 3.72-5 ii libio-async-loop-epoll-perl 0.21-1 ii libio-async-perl 0.77-3 ii libipc-run3-perl 0.048-2 ii libjson-maybexs-perl 1.004002-1 ii liblist-compare-perl 0.53-1 ii liblist-moreutils-perl 0.416-1+b5 ii liblist-utilsby-perl 0.11-1 ii libmoo-perl 2.004000-1 ii libmoox-aliases-perl 0.001006-1 ii libnamespace-clean-perl 0.27-1 ii libpath-tiny-perl 0.114-1 ii libperlio-gzip-perl 0.19-1+b6 ii libsereal-decoder-perl 4.018+ds-1 ii libsereal-encoder-perl 4.018+ds-1 ii libtext-levenshteinxs-perl 0.03-4+b7 ii libtext-xslate-perl 3.5.8-1 ii libtime-duration-perl 1.21-1 ii libtime-moment-perl 0.44-1+b2 ii libtimedate-perl 2.3300-1 ii libtry-tiny-perl 0.30-1 ii libtype-tiny-perl 1.010002-1 ii libunicode-utf8-perl 0.62-1+b1 ii liburi-perl 1.76-2 ii libxml-libxml-perl 2.0134+dfsg-2 ii libxml-writer-perl 0.625-1 ii libyaml-libyaml-perl 0.82+repack-1 ii lzip 1.21-7 ii man-db 2.9.3-2 ii patchutils 0.4.2-1 ii perl [libdigest-sha-perl] 5.30.3-4 ii t1utils 1.41-4 ii xz-utils 5.2.4-1+b1 lintian recommends no packages.
