Ah, another occurrance of this problem. The problem is that Lintian expects a dependency that satisfies cli-common-dev, and your dependency is strictly weaker than that since it doesn't require cli-common-dev on architectures other than the four listed. I think the best solution is to add another version of the Dep parsing code that ignores architecture and use that for most of these sorts of checks. If the maintainer has an arch-restricted build dependency, they generally know what they're doing and Lintian doesn't have enough information to second-guess that. -- Russ Allbery (r...@debian.org) <http://www.eyrie.org/~eagle/> -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
