Tag: debian-rules-contains-unnecessary-get-orig-source-target Severity: info Check: debian/rules Explanation: This package's debian/rules file contains a get-orig-source target that appears to be unnecessary. For example, the package might simply contain a single call to uscan(1). . Such calls are not ideal; maintainers should be able to call uscan with their own choice of options and they additionally encourage the proliferation of boilerplate code across the archive. . Since Debian Policy 4.1.4, packages are encouraged to migrate to uscan and a Files-Excluded header in the debian/copyright file. See-Also: uscan(1)
