The copyright file refers to the versionless symlink in /usr/share/common-licenses for the full text of the GPL, LGPL, or GFDL license. This symlink is updated to point to the latest version of the license when a new one is released. The package appears to allow relicensing under later versions of its license, so this is legally consistent, but it implies that Debian will relicense the package under later versions of those licenses as they're released. It is normally better to point to the version of the license the package references in its license statement. For example, if the package says something like "you may redistribute it and/or modify it under the terms of the GNU General Public License as published by the Free Software Foundation; either version 2, or (at your option) any later version", the debian/copyright file should refer to /usr/share/common-licenses/GPL-2, not /GPL. For packages released under the same terms as Perl, Perl references the GPL version 1, so point to /usr/share/common-licenses/GPL-1. Visibility: pedantic Show-Always: no Check: debian/copyright

The previous version of this package had a different version epoch to the current version but the upstream version did not go "backwards". For example, the previous package version was "1:1.0-1" and the current version is "2:2.0-1". This was likely an accidental bump or addition of an epoch. Epochs exist to cope with changes to the upstream version numbering scheme. Whilst they are a powerful tool, increasing or adding an epoch has many downsides including causing issues with versioned dependencies, being misleading to users and being aesthetically unappealing. Whilst they should be avoided, valid reasons to add or increment the epoch include: - Upstream changed their versioning scheme in a way that makes the latest version lower than the previous one. - You need to permanently revert to a lower upstream version. Temporary revertions (eg. after an NMU) should use not modify or introduce an epoch - please use the CURRENT+reallyFORMER until you can upload the latest version again. If you are unsure whether you need to increase the epoch for a package, please consult the debian-devel mailing list. Visibility: error Show-Always: no Check: debian/changelog
The specified condition must be satisfied to run the clean target in debian/rules. Please add a suitable prerequisite to Build-Depends (and not Build-Depends-Indep) even if no architecture-dependent packages are being built. The condition you see in the context is not a recommendation on what to add. If you see a list, more than likely only one member is needed to make this tag go away. You probably also do not need the :any multiarch acceptor, if you see one. Please refer to Debian Policy Manual section 7.7 for details.

The version number of your source package ends in +b and a number or has a Debian revision containing three parts. These version numbers are used by binary NMUs and should not be used as the source version. (The +b form is the current standard; the three-part version number now obsolete.) Please refer to Debian Developer's Reference section 5.10.2.1 for details. Visibility: warning Show-Always: no Check: fields/version
The code in debian/rules requires a prerequisite that is not presently listed in the package's Build-Depends. In the special case of Python, affected packages should Build-Depend on one of python3, python3-all, python3-dev, or python3-all-dev. Which one depends on whether a package supports multiple Python versions, and also whether the package builds Python modules or uses Python only as part of the build process. Packages that depend on a specific Python version may build-depend on any appropriate pythonX.Y or pythonX.Y-dev package instead. The condition you see in the context is not a recommendation on what to add. If you see a list, more than likely only one member is needed to make this tag go away. You probably also do not need the :any multiarch acceptor, if you see one. Please refer to Debian Policy Manual section 4.2 for details.

The source package uses debhelper, but it does not include ${misc:Depends}
in the given binary package's debian/control entry. Any debhelper command
may add dependencies to ${misc:Depends} that are required for the work
that it does, so recommended best practice is to always add
${misc:Depends} to the dependencies of each binary package if debhelper is
in use.
Please refer to the debhelper(7) manual page for details.

The given package appears to have a Python development package (python3-dev, python3-all-dev or pythonX.Y-dev) listed in its Build-Depends or Build-Depends-Indep fields, but only Architecture: all packages are built by this source package. Python applications and modules do not usually require those dev packages, so you should consider removing them in favour of python3, python3-all or pythonX.Y. If you are building a Python extension instead, you should have development packages listed in Build-Depends, but normally there should be at least one Architecture: any package.

This source package is not Debian-native but it does not have a debian/watch file. This file is used for automatic detection of new upstream versions by the Debian External Health Status project and other project infrastructure. If this package is maintained upstream, please consider adding a debian/watch file to detect new releases. If the package is not maintained upstream or if upstream uses a distribution mechanism that cannot be meaningfully monitored by uscan and the Debian External Health Status project, please consider adding a debian/watch file containing only comments documenting the situation. Please refer to Debian Policy Manual section 4.11 and the uscan(1) manual page for details. Visibility: info Show-Always: no Check: debian/watch
This package does not use the dh sequencer in debian/rules. While maintainers may use a variety of build systems, this one is by far the most popular.

The source package refers to a Standards-Version older than the one that was current at the time the package was created (according to the timestamp of the latest debian/changelog entry). Please consider updating the package to current Policy and setting this control field appropriately. If the package is already compliant with the current standards, you don't have to re-upload the package just to adjust the Standards-Version control field. However, please remember to update this field next time you upload the package. See /usr/share/doc/debian-policy/upgrading-checklist.txt.gz in the debian-policy package for a summary of changes in newer versions of Policy.

This package uses a debhelper compatibility level that is no longer recommended. Please consider using the recommended level. For most packages, the best way to set the compatibility level is to specify debhelper-compat (= X) as a Build-Depends in debian/control. You can also use the debian/compat file or export DH_COMPAT in debian/rules. If no level is selected debhelper defaults to level 1, which is deprecated. Please refer to the debhelper(7) manual page for details. Visibility: pedantic Show-Always: no Check: debhelper
The field Rules-Requires-Root is missing from the file debian/control. Over time, Debian has sucessively narrowed the steps for which elevated privileges are required. It speeds up the building of installation packages in the archive. Eventually, Debian will switch the default archive-wide behaviour to expedite the build process further. Please declare explicitly that the sources do not require root privileges. You can use the setting Rules-Requires-Root: no in the source stanza of debian/control, but please verify with diffoscope(1) that the installation packages produced are in fact identical. Please refer to /usr/share/doc/dpkg/rootless-builds.txt.gz, Debian Policy Manual section 4.9.2, and Debian Policy Manual section 5.6.31 for details.

The source file includes a line length that is well beyond the normally human made code line length. This very long line length does not allow Lintian to do correctly some source file checks. This line could also be the result of some text injected by a computer program, and thus could lead to FTBFS bugs. Last but not least, long line in source code could be used to obfuscate the source code and to hide stuff like backdoors or security problems. It could be due to jslint source comments or other build tool comments. You may report this issue upstream.

This source package is not Debian-native but it does not have a debian/upstream/metadata file.
