The package declares a depends on an essential package, e.g. dpkg, without using a versioned depends. Packages do not need to depend on essential packages; essential means that they will always be present. The only reason to list an explicit dependency on an essential package is if you need a particular version of that package, in which case the version should be given in the dependency. Refer to Debian Policy Manual section 3.5 (Dependencies) for details. Severity: error Check: fields/package-relations
The copyright file refers to the versionless symlink in /usr/share/common-licenses for the full text of the GPL, LGPL, or GFDL license, but the package does not appear to allow distribution under later versions of the license. This symlink will change with each release of a new version of the license and may therefore point to a different version than the package is released under. debian/copyright should instead refers to the specific version of the license that the package references. For example, if the package says something like "you can redistribute it and/or modify it under the terms of the GNU General Public License as published by the Free Software Foundation; version 2 dated June, 1991," the debian/copyright file should refer to /usr/share/common-licenses/GPL-2, not /GPL. Severity: warning Check: debian/copyright
The copyright file for this package does not appear to contain a copyright notice. You should copy the copyright notice from the upstream source (or add one of your own for a native package). A copyright notice must consist of Copyright, Copr., or the Unicode symbol of C in a circle followed by the years and the copyright holder. A copyright notice is not required for a work to be copyrighted, but Debian requires the copyright file include the authors and years of copyright, and including a valid copyright notice is the best way to do that. Examples: Copyright YYYY Firstname Lastname <address@example.com> Copr. YYYY-YYYY Firstname Lastname <address@example.com> © YYYY,YYYY Firstname Lastname <address@example.com> If the package is in the public domain rather than copyrighted, be sure to mention "public domain" in the copyright file. Please be aware that this is very rare and not the same as a DFSG-free license. True public domain software is generally limited to such special cases as a work product of a United States government agency. Refer to https://ftp-master.debian.org/REJECT-FAQ.html for details.

This file starts with the #! sequence that marks interpreted scripts, but it is not executable. There has been some discussion to allow such files in paths other than /usr/bin but there was ultimately no broad support for it. Refer to Bug#368792 for details. Severity: warning Check: scripts
The "Section:" field in this package's control file is not one of the sections in use on the ftp archive.

The package doesn't specify a build dependency on a package that is used in debian/rules. Lintian intentionally does not take into account transitive dependencies. Even if the package build-depends on some package that in turn depends on the needed package, an explicit build dependency should be added. Otherwise, a latent bug is created that will appear without warning if the other package is ever updated to change its dependencies. Even if this seems unlikely, please always add explicit build dependencies on every non-essential, non-build-essential package that is used directly during the build. Refer to Debian Policy Manual section 4.2 (Package relationships) for details. Severity: error Check: debian/rules
The source package refers to a Standards-Version that has been obsolete for more than two years. Please update your package to latest Policy and set 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. Refer to https://www.debian.org/doc/debian-policy/upgrading-checklist.html for details. Severity: warning Check: fields/standards-version
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.) Refer to Debian Developer's Reference section 5.10.2.1 (Recompilation or binary-only NMU) for details. Severity: warning Check: fields/version
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.
Refer to the debhelper(7) manual page for details.

When you NMU a package, that fact should be mentioned on the first line in the changelog entry. Use the words "NMU" or "Non-maintainer upload" (case insensitive). Maybe you didn't intend this upload to be a NMU, in that case, please double-check that the most recent entry in the changelog is byte-for-byte identical to the maintainer or one of the uploaders. If this is a local package (not intended for Debian), you can suppress this warning by putting "local" in the version number or "local package" on the first line of the changelog entry. Refer to Debian Developer's Reference section 5.11.3 (Using the DELAYED/ queue) for details. Severity: warning Check: nmu Renamed from: changelog-should-mention-nmu
A source NMU should have a Debian revision of "-x.x" (or "+nmuX" for a native package). This is to prevent stealing version numbers from the maintainer. Maybe you didn't intend this upload to be a NMU, in that case, please double-check that the most recent entry in the changelog is byte-for-byte identical to the maintainer or one of the uploaders. If this is a local package (not intended for Debian), you can suppress this warning by putting "local" in the version number or "local package" on the first line of the changelog entry. Refer to Debian Developer's Reference section 5.11.2 (NMUs and debian/changelog) for details. Severity: warning Check: nmu
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. Refer to Debian Policy Manual section 4.11 (Optional upstream source location: debian/watch) and the uscan(1) manual page for details. Severity: info 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. Maintainers are strongly encouraged to use the dh sequencer in new packages and convert existing ones when appropriate. Severity: info Check: debian/rules/dh-sequencer
quilt patch files should start with a description of patch. All lines before the start of the patch itself are considered part of the description. You can edit the description with quilt header -e when the patch is at the top of the stack. As well as a description of the purpose and function of the patch, the description should ideally contain author information, a URL for the bug report (if any), Debian or upstream bugs fixed by it, upstream status, the Debian version and date the patch was first included, and any other information that would be useful if someone were investigating the patch and underlying problem. Please consider using the DEP 3 format for this information. Refer to https://dep-team.pages.debian.net/deps/dep3/ for details. Severity: info Check: debian/patches/quilt
This package does not use a machine-readable debian/copyright file. This format makes it easier to review licenses and can be easily parsed by Lintian. Refer to https://www.debian.org/doc/packaging-manuals/copyright-format/1.0/ for details. Severity: pedantic Check: debian/copyright/dep5
This non-native package lacks a Homepage field. If the package has an upstream home page that contains useful information or resources for the end user, consider adding a Homepage control field to debian/control. Refer to Debian Policy Manual section 5.6.23 (Homepage) for details. Severity: pedantic Check: fields/homepage
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. Refer to the debhelper(7) manual page for details. Severity: pedantic Check: debhelper
The debian/control file is missing an explicit Rules-Requires-Root field. Traditionally, Debian packages have required root privileges for some debian/rules target requiring a split between build and binary targets. This makes the builds slower due to the increased amount of invocations as well as the overhead of fakeroot itself. Please specify (eg.) Rules-Requires-Root: no in the debian/control source stanza, but packagers should verify using diffoscope(1) that the binaries built with this field present are identical. Refer to /usr/share/doc/dpkg-dev/rootless-builds.txt.gz, Debian Policy Manual section 4.9.2 (debian/rules and Rules-Requires-Root), and Debian Policy Manual section 5.6.31 (Rules-Requires-Root) for details. Severity: pedantic Check: debian/control Renamed from: rules-requires-root-missing
This source package is not Debian-native but it does not have a debian/upstream/metadata file. The Upstream MEtadata GAthered with YAml (UMEGAYA) project is an effort to collect meta-information about upstream projects from any source package. This file is in YAML format and it is used in to feed the data in the UltimateDebianDatabase. For example, it can contains the way the authors want their software be cited in publications and some bibliographic references about the software. Please add a debian/upstream/metadata file. Refer to https://dep-team.pages.debian.net/deps/dep12/ and https://wiki.debian.org/UpstreamMetadata for details. Severity: pedantic Check: debian/upstream/metadata This tag is experimental.
