Package: lintian
Version: 1.23.41
Severity: minor
Hi,
I encoundeted this by misusing --color:
Transcript:
$ lintian --color libend-perl_1.2-6_i386.changes
$
$ lintian libend-perl_1.2-6_i386.changes
E: libend-perl_1.2-6_i386.changes: bad-distribution-in-changes-file
UNRELEASED
W: libend-perl source: changelog-should-mention-nmu
W: libend-perl source: source-nmu-has-incorrect-version-number 1.2-6
"--color auto" works as expected.
Perhaps this is because the .changes given is interpreted as a value
for --color? Still, lintian usually complains if no files (and no
opions) are given...
Looking at the source it seems to me that the check for $#ARGV being -1
around line 106 should be moved somewhere before processing package/file
arguments (line 582) or right after parsing options (line 299).
Best regards,
dam
