Check-Script: group-checks
Author: Niels Thykier <niels@thykier.net>
Abbrev: gchck
# This is a source check, so we only run it once per group
Type: source
Info: This script checks for some issues that may appear in packages
 built from the same source.  This includes intra-source circular
 dependencies and intra-source priority checks.

Tag: intra-source-package-circular-dependency
Severity: normal
Certainty: certain
Info: The listed packages from the same source circularly depend
 (or pre-depend) on each other.  This makes it difficult for tools
 to properly handle install/upgrade sequences.  Furthermore this
 complicates automated removal of unused packages.
 .
 If possible, consider removing or reducing one of the depends.
 .
 Note: This check is limited to packages created from the same
 source package.  Full circular dependencies between binaries from
 different source packages is beyond the scope of Lintian.
Ref: policy 7.2

Tag: package-depends-on-lower-priority-package
Severity: normal
Certainty: certain
Ref: policy 2.5, http://qa.debian.org/debcheck.php
Info: The package depends on a package with lower priority than
 itself.
 .
 Note: This check is limited to packages created from the same source
 package.  A full check of all dependencies built from different
 source packages is beyond the scope of Lintian.  The depcheck service
 can do this.

Tag: binaries-have-file-conflict
Severity: normal
Certainty: possible
Experimental: no
Info: The binaries appears to have overlapping files without proper
 conflicts relation.
 .
 Note the check is completely based on the file index for the
 packages.  Possible known false-positives include dpkg-diverts in
 maintainer scripts.

Tag: dependency-is-not-multi-archified
Severity: normal
Certainty: possible
Info: The package is Multi-Arch "same", but it depends on a package that
 is neither Multi-Arch "same" nor "foreign".
