Package: lintian Version: 2.2.6 Severity: normal NSIS contains the following architecture-specific files in /usr/share. These are all binaries for Microsoft Windows built with the mingw32 cross-compiler we have in Debian. nsis is a tool to create installers for Windows applications and so it needs some Windows binaries to make those installers work. These files are architecture specific (win32) but currently the files are stored in /usr/share/nsis since that is where upstream puts them. I think lintian should warn about these Win32-specific files being in /usr/share. I'll be overriding the warnings though, until I can figure out where to install them (Debian needs multi-arch support too) and patch upstream appropriately.
