Package: lintian Version: 2.116.3 Severity: normal Just building a Python package with this version, and I receive the info tag: I: python3-bytecode: package-contains-documentation-outside-usr-share-doc [usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/bytecode-0.15.0.dist-info/top_level.txt] I think (almost) every Python package has a top_level.txt file that is automatically built, naming the top-level Python package, so this file should be excluded from this test. (The file always lives in a *.dist-info or *.egg-info directory.) Best wishes, Julian

This should be fixed in the latest upload. Please re-open if that's not the case.On 13 October 2023 10:38:34 am IST, Julian Gilbey <jdg@debian.org> wrote:On Fri, Oct 13, 2023 at 12:18:58AM +0530, Nilesh Patra wrote:Control: tags -1 patch
Hello,
It seems that .dist-info and .egg-info are always ignored for this
warning anyway. However dist-info should contain
[...]
On digging into dh-python changelog, I see the entry:
* Remove RECORD files from dist-info, these are incompatible with
multi-arch.
Then, I think it makes sense to remove this check from lintian as well.
I've anyway opened an MR to fix this:

Amazingly fast deductive work there, Nilesh - thank you!
Best wishes,
Julian
