Package: lintian Version: 2.15.0 Severity: wishlist Dear Maintainer, please consider following situation: * upstream build system incorrectly installs binary into $(prefix)/bin * package maintainer moves it into $(prefix)/sbin [ or via-verse, although it is more rare ] * there still may be files around, that refer to previous location of binary, like: + supplementary scripts + .desktop files + init-system integration files + hardcoded path in other binaries (yes, it happens) So here is my proposal: for each binary /usr/bin/foo and /usr/sbin/bar, scan all files for "/usr/sbin/foo" and "/usr/bin/bar" and report any occurence for possible mismatch. I believe, that if we exclude /usr/share/doc/ from examination, false positive should not happen very often. Still, obliviously, this check is to be of "wild-guess" category.
