Dear Release Team,
I've opened #1109529 for ftpteam to reject packages from NEW
installing outside of the usrmerge paths. Niels suggested that this
is not enough, and gating should also be done before allowing
packages into testing.
One option would be for britney to check the lintian tag package-contains-usr-unmerged-pathnames. The tag is available in
trixie's lintian.
I'm not sure which support for running lintian or using lintian data
from UDD you already have.
Maybe we need to have a discussion here.
Thanks,
Chris
