Package: lintian
Version: 2.5.5
Severity: minor
$ lintian-info -t unknown-field-in-templates | grep -A 1 Refer
N: Refer to Configuration management (Templates) and the debconf-devel(7)
N: manual page for details.
If there is no hyperlink, it's not immediately obvious that
"Configuration management" is title of the document better known as the
debconf specification.
I noticed that because I wanted to add copyright-format to our list of
manuals. It would share the same problem and the produced output would
be even less helpful:
N: Refer to Machine-readable debian/copyright file for details.
Is this something we should fix or lintian (by adding some extra code to
private/refresh-manual-refs)? Or should it be fixed on the debian-policy
side?
