Test 4 (sbuild): Information only

Lintian:

I: justbuild: hardening-no-bindnow [usr/bin/just-mr]
N: 
N:   This package provides an ELF binary that lacks the "bindnow" linker flag.
N:   
N:   This is needed (together with "relro") to make the "Global Offset Table"
N:   (GOT) fully read-only. The bindnow feature trades startup time for
N:   improved security. Please consider enabling this feature or consider
N:   overriding the tag (possibly with a comment about why).
N:   
N:   If you use dpkg-buildflags, you may have to add hardening=+bindnow or
N:   hardening=+all to DEB_BUILD_MAINT_OPTIONS.
N:   
N:   The relevant compiler flags are set in LDFLAGS.
N: 
N:   Please refer to https://wiki.debian.org/Hardening for details.

I: justbuild: hardening-no-bindnow [usr/bin/justbuild]
N:
I: justbuild: hardening-no-fortify-functions [usr/bin/just-mr]
N: 
N:   This package provides an ELF binary that lacks the use of fortified libc
N:   functions. Either there are no potentially unfortified functions called by
N:   any routines, all unfortified calls have already been fully validated at
N:   compile-time, or the package was not built with the default Debian
N:   compiler flags defined by dpkg-buildflags. If built using dpkg-buildflags
N:   directly, be sure to import CPPFLAGS.
N:   
N:   NB: Due to false-positives, Lintian ignores some unprotected functions
N:   (e.g. memcpy).
N: 
N:   Please refer to https://wiki.debian.org/Hardening and Bug#673112 for
N:   details.

I: justbuild source: patch-not-forwarded-upstream
[debian/patches/add_support_for_loongarch64_target.diff]
N: 
N:   According to the DEP-3 headers, this patch has not been forwarded
N:   upstream.
N:   
N:   Please forward the patch and try to have it included in upstream's version
N:   control system. If the patch is not suitable for that, please mention
N:   not-needed in the Forwarded field of the patch header.
N: 
N:   Please refer to social contract item 2, Coordination with upstream
N:   developers (Section 3.1.4) in the Debian Developer's Reference, Changes to
N:   the upstream sources (Section 4.3) in the Debian Policy Manual, and
N:   Bug#755153 for details.

N:
I: justbuild: typo-in-manual-page "allows to" "allows one to"
[usr/share/man/man1/justbuild.1.gz:85]
N: 
N:   Lintian found a spelling error in a manual page. Lintian has a list of
N:   common misspellings that it looks for. It does not have a dictionary like
N:   a spelling checker does.
N:   
N:   If the string containing the spelling error is translated with the help of
N:   gettext (with the help of po4a, for example) or a similar tool, please fix
N:   the error in the translations as well as the English text to avoid making
N:   the translations fuzzy. With gettext, for example, this means you should
N:   also fix the spelling mistake in the corresponding msgids in the *.po
N:   files.

N:
P: justbuild source: trailing-whitespace [debian/changelog:42]
N: 
N:   This file contains lines with trailing whitespace characters.
N:   
N:   Whilst often harmless and unsightly, such extra whitespaces can also cause
N:   tools to interpret the whitespace characters literally. The tool diff(1)
N:   does not like them, either. They are best avoided.
N:   
N:   Some of these problems can be hard to track down.
N:   
N:   Whitespace at the end of lines may be removed with the following:
N:   
N:    $ sed -i -e 's@[[:space:]]*$@@g' debian/control debian/changelog
N:   
N:   If you use Emacs, you can also use "M-x wh-cl" (whitespace-cleanup).
N:   
N:   However, if you wish to only remove trailing spaces and leave trailing
N:   tabs (eg. for Makefiles), you can use the following code snippet:
N:   
N:    $ sed -i -e 's@[ ]*$@@g' debian/rules
N:   
N:   To remove empty lines from the end of a file, you can use:
N:   
N:    $ sed -i -e :a -e '/^\n*$/{$d;N;};/\n$/ba' debian/rules
