Using lintian from Etch, lintian report the next message: N: Processing changes file dtrx_6.2-1_i386.changes ... N: Processing 2 packages... N: ---- N: Processing source package dtrx (version 6.2-1) ... W: dtrx source: newer-standards-version 3.8.0 (current is 3.7.2) N: N: The source package refers to a `Standards-Version' which is newer than N: the highest one lintian is programmed to check. If the source package N: is correct, then please upgrade lintian to the newest version. (If N: there is no newer lintian version, then please bug N: [EMAIL PROTECTED] to make one.) N: E: dtrx source: missing-build-dependency python-support (>= 0.3) N: N: The package doesn't specify a build dependency on a package that is N: used in debian/rules. N: N: lintian intentionally does not take into account transitive N: dependencies. Even if the package build-depends on some package that N: in turn build-depends on the needed package, an explicit build N: dependency should be added. Otherwise, a latent bug is created that N: will appear without warning if the other package is ever updated to N: change its dependencies. Even if this seems unlikely, please always N: add explicit build dependencies on every non-essential, N: non-build-essential package that is used directly during the build. N: N: Refer to Policy Manual, section 4.2 for details. N: N: ---- Using lintian from sid: N: Processing changes file dtrx_6.2-1_i386.changes ... N: Processing 2 packages...

The debian/control file for this example from source package is: Source: dtrx Section: utils Priority: extra Maintainer: Miguelangel Jose Freitas Loreto <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Build-Depends: debhelper, python, python-support Standards-Version: 3.8.0 Homepage: http://brettcsmith.org/2007/dtrx/ Package: dtrx Architecture: all Depends: ${python:Depends}, binutils, unzip, cpio, rpm, bzip2, cabextract, unshield, lzma, p7zip-full Description: intelligently extract multiple archive type dtrx stands for "Do The Right Extraction.", it's a tool for Unix-like systems that takes all the hassle out of extracting archives, with dtrx you can do: . Handles many archive types: You only need to remember one simple command to extract tar, zip, cpio, deb, rpm, gem, 7z, cab, gz, bz2, lzma, and many kinds of exe files, including Microsoft Cabinet archives, InstallShield archives, and self-extracting zip files. If they have any extra compression, like tar.bz2, dtrx will take care of that for you, too. . Keeps everything organized: dtrx will make sure that archives are extracted into their own dedicated directories. . Sane permissions: dtrx makes sure you can read and write all the files you just extracted, while leaving the rest of the permissions intact. . Recursive extraction: dtrx can find archives inside the archive and extract those too.
