Hm... does this end up breaking anything? It feels a bit aggressive to warn about someone having a README file in that directory or something. If having those extraneous files causes problems, though, that's another matter. > The two other files are patches to add this check. The results raise, for me, a different question: > W: bootsplash source: unknown-po-debconf-file debian/po/cs.po~ > W: bootsplash source: unknown-po-debconf-file debian/po/fr.po~ > W: bootsplash source: unknown-po-debconf-file debian/po/ja.po~ > W: bootsplash source: unknown-po-debconf-file debian/po/pt.po~ > W: bootsplash source: unknown-po-debconf-file debian/po/pt_BR.po~ > W: cpad-kernel source: unknown-po-debconf-file debian/po/es.po~ > W: cpad-kernel source: unknown-po-debconf-file debian/po/vi.po~ > W: cvsd source: unknown-po-debconf-file debian/po/pt_BR.po~ > W: cvsd source: unknown-po-debconf-file debian/po/da.po~ > W: cvsd source: unknown-po-debconf-file debian/po/de.po~ > W: cvsd source: unknown-po-debconf-file debian/po/cs.po~ > W: cvsd source: unknown-po-debconf-file debian/po/es.po~ > W: cvsd source: unknown-po-debconf-file debian/po/fr.po~ > W: cvsd source: unknown-po-debconf-file debian/po/ja.po~ > W: cvsd source: unknown-po-debconf-file debian/po/nl.po~ > W: cvsd source: unknown-po-debconf-file debian/po/pt.po~ > W: cvsd source: unknown-po-debconf-file debian/po/vi.po~ [...] Should we be warning about editor backup files in the debian diff or in native Debian packages?
