Tag: unused-debconf-template
Severity: info
Check: debian/debconf
Explanation: Templates which are not used by the package should be removed from
the templates file.
.
This will reduce the size of the templates database and prevent
translators from unnecessarily translating the template's text.
.
In some cases, the template is used but Lintian is unable to determine
this. Common causes are:
.
- the maintainer scripts embed a variable in the template name in
order to allow a template to be selected from a range of similar
templates (e.g. <code>db_input low start_$service_at_boot</code>)
.
- the template is not used by the maintainer scripts but is used by
a program in the package
.
- the maintainer scripts are written in perl. Lintian currently only
understands the shell script debconf functions.
.
If any of the above apply, please install an override.
