Package: lintian Version: 2.110.0 Severity: normal Hi, I see lintian 2.110 is now emitting a package-contains-python-dot-directory tag for .egg-info directories in binary packages. We do not want to encourage package maintainers to remove .egg-info directories from their Python binary packages. Tools inspect these to know which Python modules are available on the system, as well as many other things. I would consider all of these tags to be incorrect: W: python3-bs4: package-contains-python-dot-directory usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/beautifulsoup4-4.10.0.egg-info/ W: python3-bs4: package-contains-python-dot-directory usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/beautifulsoup4-4.10.0.egg-info/PKG-INFO W: python3-bs4: package-contains-python-dot-directory usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/beautifulsoup4-4.10.0.egg-info/dependency_links.txt W: python3-bs4: package-contains-python-dot-directory usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/beautifulsoup4-4.10.0.egg-info/requires.txt W: python3-bs4: package-contains-python-dot-directory usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/beautifulsoup4-4.10.0.egg-info/top_level.txt Thanks, SR
