Package: lintian-brush Thanks for maintaining lintian-brush, I use it all the time! Mostly I run this:
lintian-brush --no-update-changelog --modern --uncertain After it ran I review manually and tweak what is needed, but most of the time everything is great. I also discovered the package ships these custom commands: apply-multiarch-hints and deb-scrub-obsolete However, the main man page at https://manpages.debian.org/unstable/lintian-brush/lintian-brush.1.en.html does not mention them at all. Why not? Their own man pages https://manpages.debian.org/unstable/lintian-brush/deb-scrub-obsolete.1.en.html and https://manpages.debian.org/unstable/lintian-brush/apply-multiarch-hints.1.en.html likewise don't explain the relationship to lintian-brush. If I am already running lintian-brush, is there any value in running these commands separately? Do these commands have some "if" checks in them, can I idempotently run them on any package and they will do the changes only when needed? Should I start including these in my personal update routine?
