NAME

dh_lintian - install lintian override files into package build directories

SYNOPSIS

dh_lintian [debhelper options]

DESCRIPTION

dh_lintian is a debhelper program that is responsible for installing override files used by lintian into package build directories.

If a file named debian/package.lintian-overrides exists, then it is installed into usr/share/lintian/overrides/package in the package build directory. This file is used to suppress erroneous lintian diagnostics.

Note that a file named debian/source.lintian-overrides will not be installed, but will be scanned by lintian to provide overrides for the source package.
