This make no difference. I still get the same output. I even tried it with linitian 2.3.1 with the same result. Just to note it again: Sometimes lintian works (say every fourth or fifth attempt) but must of the time it doesn't. Here the output of the attempt that worked: $ lintian --check --allow-root -b -d -d -d ghostscript_8.64-5_i386.deb; echo "Return: $?"

There should be nothing special about my lintian setup. I'm fairly sure about this because I usually use lintian from within a cowdancer environment, which is a clean Ubuntu installation, and this lintian call fails as well. (My other test were run directly on my server and not from within the cowdancer environment.) > > -- > Russ Allbery (r...@debian.org) <http://www.eyrie.org/~eagle/>
