Package: lintian Version: 2.106.1 Severity: normal X-Debbugs-Cc: par...@debian.org
Hi, It looks like there's a mismatch between the lintian manpage and the actual behavior. The manpage says that for --fail-on "The default is error." However lintian doesn't actually exit with $? != 0 on errors (E tags) unless `--fail-on error` is explicitly specified.
