Lintian has a + list of common misspellings that it looks for. It does not have a + dictionary like a spelling checker does. + . + If the string containing the spelling error is translated with the help + of gettext or a similar tool, please fix the error in the translations as + well as the English text to avoid making the translations fuzzy. With + gettext, for example, this means you should also fix the spelling mistake + in the corresponding msgids in the *.po files. + . + You can often find the word in the source code by running: + . + grep -rw <word> <source-tree> + . + This tag may produce false positives for words that contain non-ASCII + characters due to limitations in <code>strings</code>. |
