Tag: adopted-extended-field
Severity: info
Check: debian/control/field/adopted
Renamed-From:
xc-package-type-in-debian-control
xs-testsuite-field-in-debian-control
xs-vcs-field-in-debian-control
Explanation: A field in <code>debian/control</code> has an extension prefix
but is also known without it.
.
Extension prefixes like <code>XS-*</code> or <code>XC-*</code> allow
experimental fields to propagate to the right place when packages are
built with <code>dpkg</code>. In this case, however, the field is
also known without the prefix. In all likelihood the field was permanently
adopted, and <code>dpkg</code> learned how to deal with it.
.
Please consider removing the extension prefix for the field name.
