Hi,
we are currently packaging a new openbox version.
openbox.menu looks like:
?package(openbox):\
needs="wm"\
section="Window Managers"\
title="Openbox"\
command="/usr/bin/openbox"\
icon="/usr/share/pixmaps/openbox.xpm"
When checking the resulting package with lintian I get a warning:
W: openbox: menu-item-needs-tag-has-unknown-value wm /usr/share/menu/openbox:6
N:
N: The menu item has a line that has a needs= field with a strange value.
N: This may be intentional, but it's probably a typo that will make menu
N: ignore the line.
N:
What makes me wonder is that needs="wm" should be valid referring to the
menu manual:
3.4. The `needs' field
----------------------
[....]
4. `wm': if it is a X11 window manager. The current window manager
will exec(2) this program to avoid "Another window manager is
running" errors.
We didn't have this some time ago though. Is this a bug in lintian? Do I miss
something?
Kind regards
Nico
