+Tag: executable-not-elf-or-script
+Severity: warning
+Check: executable
+Explanation: This executable file is not an ELF format binary, and does not start
+ with the #! sequence that marks interpreted scripts. It might be a sh
+ script that fails to name /bin/sh as its shell, or it may be incorrectly
+ marked as executable. Sometimes upstream files developed on Windows are
+ marked unnecessarily as executable on other systems.
+ .
+ If you are using debhelper to build your package, running dh_fixperms will
+ often correct this problem for you.
