W: touche: initial-upload-closes-no-bugs [usr/share/doc/touche/changelog.Debian.gz:1]
N:
N: This package appears to be the first packaging of a new upstream software
N: package (there is only one changelog entry and the Debian revision is 1),
N: but it does not close any bugs. The initial upload of a new package should
N: close the corresponding ITP bug for that package.
N:
N: This warning can be ignored if the package is not intended for Debian or
N: if it is a split of an existing Debian package.
N:
N: Please refer to New packages (Section 5.1) in the Debian Developer's
N: Reference for details.

N: Visibility: warning

W: touche: link-to-shared-library-in-wrong-package usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libtouche.so.0 [usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libtouche.so]
N:
N: Although this package is not a "-dev" package, it installs a
N: "libsomething.so" symbolic link referencing the corresponding shared
N: library. When the link doesn't include the version number, it is used by
N: the linker when other programs are built against this shared library.
N:
N: Shared libraries are supposed to place such symbolic links in their
N: respective "-dev" packages, so it is a bug to include it with the main
N: library package.
N:
N: However, if this is a small package which includes the runtime and the
N: development libraries, this is not a bug. In the latter case, please
N: override this warning.
N:
N: Please refer to Development files (Section 8.4) in the Debian Policy
N: Manual for details.

N: Renamed from: non-dev-pkg-with-shlib-symlink
N:
N:
W: touche: no-manual-page [usr/bin/com.github.joseexposito.touche]
N:
N: Each binary in /usr/bin, /usr/sbin, /bin, /sbin or /usr/games should have
N: a manual page
N:
N: Note that though the man program has the capability to check for several
N: program names in the NAMES section, each of these programs should have its
N: own manual page (a symbolic link to the appropriate manual page is
N: sufficient) because other manual page viewers such as xman or tkman don't
N: support this.
N:
N: If the name of the manual page differs from the binary by case, man may be
N: able to find it anyway; however, it is still best practice to match the
N: exact capitalization of the executable in the manual page.
N:
N: If the manual pages are provided by another package on which this package
N: depends, Lintian may not be able to determine that manual pages are
N: available. In this case, after confirming that all binaries do have manual
N: pages after this package and its dependencies are installed, please add a
N: Lintian override.
N:
N: Please refer to Manual pages (Section 12.1) in the Debian Policy Manual
N: for details.

W: touche: package-name-doesnt-match-sonames libtouche0
N:
N: The package name of a library package should usually reflect the soname of
N: the included library. The package name can determined from the library
N: file name with the following code snippet:
N:
N: $ objdump -p /path/to/libfoo-bar.so.1.2.3 | sed -n -e's/^[[:space:]]*SONAME[[:space:]]*//p' | \
N: sed -r -e's/([0-9])\.so\./\1-/; s/\.so(\.|$)//; y/_/-/; s/(.*)/\L&/'

N:
I: touche: no-symbols-control-file usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libtouche.so.0
N:
N: Although the package includes a shared library, the package does not have
N: a symbols control file.
N:
N: dpkg can use symbols files in order to generate more accurate library
N: dependencies for applications, based on the symbols from the library that
N: are actually used by the application.
N:
N: Please refer to the dpkg-gensymbols(1) manual page and
N: https://wiki.debian.org/UsingSymbolsFiles for details.
