#871883 — Bug#885726: golang-github-hashicorp-go-sockaddr: Source includes "cmd/sockaddr/vendor/vendor.json" listed in Files-Excluded header

Source: golang-github-hashicorp-go-sockaddr
Version: 0.0~git20170627.41949a1+ds-1
Severity: important
User: lamby@debian.org
Usertags: files-excluded

Dear Maintainer,

golang-github-hashicorp-go-sockaddr lists "cmd/sockaddr/vendor/*" in the Files-Excluded field
in debian/copyright but the source tree contains cmd/sockaddr/vendor/vendor.json.

This might be a DFSG violation, the referenced files are probably not
attributed in debian/copyright or the upstream tarball was simply not
repacked as intended. Alternatively, the field is simply out of date.


Regards,

The vendor.json is an autogenerated file that keeps versions (commit
hashes and dates) of every vendored dependency. I usually keep it around
for reference, as it is very useful when things break. I really don't
see much the point of removing it, or making a very complicated
files-excluded field. Also, how can it be a DFSG violation?

Hi Martín,

It was just an entirely-generic list of possible problems, don't
worry.

Mmm. I have a rough plan to make this an autoreject Lintian tag, so that
would be problematic here. :)

Would something like (untested) "cmd/sockaddr/vendor/*/*" not work, ooi?

Ah, OK.

I guess.. Also, we should probably remove that field from most packages,
since we have decided to use upstream git history, and repack on git, so
there is no real usage for it --except documentation.
