[Pkg-octave-devel] lintian and linda reports

[Ólafur Jens Sigurðsson]

Hi

I have just tried to make a deb package out of one of the octave-forge
packages that makes a .oct file (the audio package specifically) and
these are the lintian an linda errors/warnings I get:

Lintian:
E: octave-audio: unstripped-binary-or-object
./usr/share/octave/packages/audio-1.0.2/bin/aurecord

Linda:
E: octave-audio; The file
/usr/share/octave/packages/audio-1.0.2/bin/aurecord is considered
architecture-dependent.
E: octave-audio; Binary
/usr/share/octave/packages/audio-1.0.2/bin/aurecord contains unneeded
section comment.
E: octave-audio; Binary
/usr/share/octave/packages/audio-1.0.2/bin/aurecord is not stripped.


How would I fix this? I use a rules file that is similar to the one I
uploaded with the statistics package, that is, I let octave compile
everything and install everything in its place inside the debian
directory.
