[Bug 674626] Re: mythtv 1:0.24.0+fixes27162-0ubuntu1 has many lintian problems

 

Particularly some of the python/perl stuff needs to be handled with a
more fine toothed comb because there are other packages that are
depending on the paths that they're currently located and the executable
nature of certain scripts.

Status in “mythtv” package in Ubuntu: Fix Released

Bug description:
Binary package hint: mythtv

Running lintian on the mythtv binaries for 1:0.24.0+fixes27162-0ubuntu1 results in many errors and warnings. I will attach the output for the amd64 binaries (the same should be done for the _all packages, if any), but some examples of the worst offenders are:
mytharchive: python-script-but-no-python-dep ./build/buildd/mythtv-0.24.0+fixes27162/debian/tmp/usr/share/mythtv/mytharchive/scripts/mythburn.py
...

The build/ stuff is enough to reject the binaries for natty, which I am doing. Please clean up these issues and feel free to reupload. Thanks
