LINTIAN-INFO(O)                                   LINTIAN-INFO(O)



NAME
       lintian-info  -  give detailed information about Lintian's
       error tags


SYNOPSIS
       lintian-info [log-file] ...


DESCRIPTION
       The lintian-info command parses the output of the  lintian
       command  and  gives  verbose  information about the listed
       Lintian error tags.

       If no log-file is specified on the command line, this com-
       mand  expects its input on stdin. Thus, the output of lin-
       tian can either be piped through  lintian-info  or  a  log
       file  produced  by lintian can be processed with this com-
       mand. (Note, that the lintian command has a  command  line
       option  -i  to  automatically pipe its output through lin-
       tian-info.   Thus,  you  will  rarely  use  this   command
       directly.)


EXIT STATUS
       This command always returns with exit code 0.
