Final Comment
Hi,
There's a couple of Lintian warnings, but not the sort of thing that stops
the package from being accepted into Debian.
Thanks!

W: nip4: groff-message troff:<standard input>:120: warning: no font mounted at position 6 [usr/share/man/man1/nip4-batch.1.gz:1]
N:
N: A manual page provoked warnings or errors from the man program. Here are
N: some common ones:
N:
N: "cannot adjust" or "can't break" are issues with paragraph filling. They
N: are usually related to long lines. Justifying text on the left hand side
N: can help with adjustments. Hyphenation can help with breaks.
N:
N: For more information, please see "Manipulating Filling and Adjusting" and
N: "Manipulating Hyphenation" in the Groff manual (see info groff).
N:
N: "can't find numbered character" usually means that the input was in a
N: national legacy encoding. The warning means that some characters were
N: dropped. Please use escapes such as \[:a] as described on the groff_char
N: manual page.
N:
N: Other common warnings are formatting typos. String arguments to .IP
N: require quotes. Usually, some text is lost or mangled. See the groff_man
N: (or groff_mdoc if using mdoc) manual page for details on macros.
N:
N: The check for manual pages uses the --warnings option to man to catch
N: common problems, like a . or a ' at the beginning of a line as literal
N: text. They are interpreted as Groff commands. Just reformat the paragraph
N: so the characters are not at the beginning of a line. You can also add a
N: zero-width space (\&) in front of them.
N:
N: Aside from overrides, warnings can be disabled with the .warn directive.
N: Please see "Debugging" in the Groff manual.
N:
N: You can see the warnings yourself by running the command used by Lintian:
N:
N: LC_ALL=C.UTF-8 MANROFFSEQ='' MANWIDTH=80 \
N: man --warnings -E UTF-8 -l -Tutf8 -Z <file> >/dev/null
N:
N: Please refer to the groff_man(7) manual page and the groff_mdoc(7) manual
N: page for details.

N: Visibility: warning
N: Show-Always: no

N:
W: nip4: icon-size-and-directory-name-mismatch 512x512 [usr/share/icons/hicolor/128x128/apps/org.libvips.nip4.png]
N:
N: The icon has a size that differs from the size specified by the name of
N: the directory under which it was installed. The icon was probably
N: mistakenly installed into the wrong directory.
N:
N: Visibility: warning
N: Show-Always: no
N: Check: desktop/icons
N:
N:
W: nip4 source: inconsistent-appstream-metadata-license org.libvips.nip4.metainfo.xml (mit != gpl-2+) [debian/copyright]
N:
N: The specified AppStream metadata file specifies a metadata_license field
N: but this does not match its entry (possibly via the Files: * stanza) in
N: debian/copyright.
N:
N: Please refer to https://wiki.debian.org/AppStream/Guidelines,
N: https://www.debian.org/doc/packaging-manuals/copyright-format/1.0/, and
N: https://www.freedesktop.org/software/appstream/docs/chap-Metadata.html#tag-metadata_license
N: for details.
