Review: deb-build-artifact-gather 0.1
Package Information
| Description | Build time artifact gathering helper for tools like sbuild The deb-build-artifact-gather is a tool for gathering build time artifacts from Debian builds. Most Debian builds are performed inside a chroot or container to segregate the build and its dependencies from the host system. This is desirable to ensure that the build cannot taint the host and vice versa. In many cases it also acts as a security boundary between the two. However, there are a multitude of different methods for creating this context boundary, and they all have different behaviors, which has made it non-trivial for gather arbitrary build artifacts from the builder side. This is where deb-build-artifact-gather comes in. It provides a standardized way to request artifacts to be extracted. The build orchestration tooling is responsible for invoking deb-build-artifact-gather at the right time with parameters. The deb-build-artifact-gather will then collect relevant artifacts and provide them to the build orchestration tooling, so they can be published. |

Final Comment
I'm assuming that the Lintian warning here is a false positive?
Thanks!
