Dear Maintainer(s),
lpr has been flagged by Lintian as shipping a sysv-init script
without a corresponding systemd unit file.
[...]
I've implemented this (and a whole bunch of other fixups that seemed
needed) in a COMPLETELY UNTESTED branch that I've pushed to:
https://salsa.debian.org/debian/lpr/-/commits/lintian-shellcheck-and-policy-fixes
Any help with reviewing and testing these changes would be appreciated!
If my screaming above was not clear enough; I've only build-tested the
package. Not even installed it. This is all implemented as at the best
of my ability with absolutely no testing done (yet) what so ever!
I'm not a user of lpr/lpd myself and lack deeper understanding of its
inner workings.
The above branch includes a bunch of fixes for unreported policy related violations. Maybe it's better if this package was removed (since I
assume better alternatives exists that are hopefully better maintained).
If the maintainer (who haven't touched the package in a decade)
disagrees, please state so!
If not removed, maybe the package should atleast be orphaned?!
Regards,
Andreas Henriksson
PS. It would likely be a good idea to also convert debian/rules to use
dh sequencer.
