Package: lintian Version: 1.23.41 Severity: normal Lintian reports /usr/bin/env as an unusual-interpreter. However, many python scripts use "#!/usr/bin/env python" to find python on the path rather than assuming a particular location. Lintian should allow /usr/bin/env as an interpreter. Better yet, it should special-case /usr/bin/env and look at the second argument to determine the interpreter, with a whitelist of permissible env-indirect interpreters; to start with, that list should include python.
