Bug#812248: lintian: don't check Homepage field (and similar) against dbgsym packages
Package: lintian
Version: 2.5.39.1
Severity: minor
Hi,
while running lintian against a package with a non-existing upstream it
complained about the missing Homepage field. It did so also for the
dbgsym package.
I can understand the reaoning to not want to have an override file for
the dbgsym package, but that means that this check (and potentially
others too) shouldn't trigger a message for dbgsym packages.
I'm uncertain what checks might appear beside the missing Homepage but
I guess there might be more than this. I hope you have a better
overview on what might appear additionally to that.
So long,
Rhonda
