Package: debhelper
Version: 7.0.17
Severity: wishlist
File: /usr/bin/dh_lintian
Hi,
it would be nice if dh_lintian could support arch specific
overrides, e.g. change search order to
debian/package.lintian-overrides.$ARCH
debian/package.lintian-overrides
This can be helpful for repackaging binary-only non-free programs and
libraries that have different unfixable problems on different platforms.
Looking at another suggestion, merging all the overrides into one file
(#478989), this could be implemented by prefixing the lines with e.g.
[i386] or [!amd64] and applying appropriate filtering.
Andreas
