Package: lintian Version: 2.3.3 Severity: normal Hello,
The "etcfiles" test seems broken: 1. The file ./testset/etcfiles/debian/rules contains some test entries for md5which gets overritten immediately: > echo '68b329da9893e34099c7d8ad5cb9c940 > ./etc/cron.daily/cronfile-normal' \ > > debian/tmp/DEBIAN/md5sums > echo '68b329da9893e34099c7d8ad5cb9c940 > ./etc/cron.daily/.cronfile-begins-with-fullstop' \ > > debian/tmp/DEBIAN/md5sums ^^ Ouch!! > echo '68b329da9893e34099c7d8ad5cb9c940 > ./etc/cron.daily/cronfile-contains.fullstop' \ > > debian/tmp/DEBIAN/md5sums ^^ Ouch!! > echo 'ab371382468880299e5ebd05921764ce ./etc/proper' \ > > debian/tmp/DEBIAN/md5sums ^^ Ouch!! > echo 'ab371382468880299e5ebd05921764ce etc/improper' \ > >> debian/tmp/DEBIAN/md5sums 2. The checksum for the file ./etc/proper should be valid (I guess), but it is not: > echo 'ab371382468880299e5ebd05921764ce ./etc/proper' \ > > debian/tmp/DEBIAN/md5sums The current md5sum for this file is : % md5sum proper 05c72cacce994208128b7d081116b04a proper Obviously, the file testset/tags.etcfiles should be adjusted accordingly.
