Well, it's not even a spelling mistake or a shortcoming. The text is valid - only it could have been a tiny bit shorter. I don't see what value that adds at all. Let's remember that Lintian is a policy checker. Too many, too detailed tests will reduce its usefulness and yielding spurious warnings erodes the value of a warning. I could think of a thousand more tests (like useful-spelled-as-usefull ;) but it's just not appropriate to add those to lintian in my opinion. regards, Thijs -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
