Lintian has a few things that should be easy to fix. W: bazaar: no-manual-page [usr/bin/bazaar-dl-worker] N: N: Each binary in /usr/bin, /usr/sbin, /bin, /sbin or /usr/games should have a manual page N: N: Note that though the man program has the capability to check for several program names in the NAMES section, each of these programs should have its own manual page (a symbolic link to the appropriate manual page is sufficient) because other manual N: page viewers such as xman or tkman don't support this. N: N: If the name of the manual page differs from the binary by case, man may be able to find it anyway; however, it is still best practice to match the exact capitalization of the executable in the manual page. N: N: If the manual pages are provided by another package on which this package depends, Lintian may not be able to determine that manual pages are available. In this case, after confirming that all binaries do have manual pages after this package and its N: dependencies are installed, please add a Lintian override. N: N: Please refer to Manual pages (Section 12.1) in the Debian Policy Manual for details. N: N: Visibility: warning N: Show-Always: no N: Check: documentation/manual N: Renamed from: binary-without-manpage N: N: W: bazaar: no-manual-page [usr/bin/bazaar] N: I: bazaar source: quilt-patch-missing-description [debian/patches/ fix_libdex_version.patch] N: N: quilt patch files should start with a description of patch. All lines before the start of the patch itself are considered part of the description. You can edit the description with quilt header -e when the patch is at the top of the stack. N: N: As well as a description of the purpose and function of the patch, the description should ideally contain author information, a URL for the bug report (if any), Debian or upstream bugs fixed by it, upstream status, the Debian version and date the N: patch was first included, and any other information that would be useful if someone were investigating the patch and underlying problem. Please consider using the DEP 3 format for this information. N: N: Please refer to https://dep-team.pages.debian.net/deps/dep3/ for details. N: N: Visibility: info N: Show-Always: no N: Check: debian/patches/quilt Lrc has a few things worth looking into: $ lrc en: Versions: licenserecon '8.1' licensecheck '3.3.9-1' Parsing Source Tree .... Reading d/copyright .... Running licensecheck .... d/copyright | licensecheck GPL-3+ | GPL-3 build-aux/rpm/bazaar.spec GPL-3+ | CC0-1.0 src/icons/scalable/actions/app-installed- symbolic.svg GPL-3+ | CC0-1.0 src/icons/scalable/actions/community- symbolic.svg GPL-3+ | LGPL-2+ src/shell-search-provider-dbus- interfaces.xml There are some copyright statements that need to be in debian/copyright (particularly Alexander Vanhee, but also a few others). Boiler-plate statements that don’t actually list a copyright holder don’t need to be included, like "Copyright (C) 2025 THE bazaar'S COPYRIGHT HOLDER”. I find the following command helpful: $ grep -Ri copyright -- Soren Stoutner [email protected]
