lintian-annotate-hints - give detailed information about Lintian's error tags
lintian-annotate-hints [log-file...]
The lintian-annotate-hints command parses the EWI output of the lintian command and gives verbose information about the listed Lintian tags, or parses a Lintian override file and gives verbose information about the tags included.
If no log-file is specified on the command line, this command expects its input on stdin. Thus, the output of lintian can either be piped through lintian-annotate-hints or a log file produced by lintian can be processed with this command.
(Note, though, that the lintian command has a command line option -i to display the same results as lintian-annotate-hints, so you normally do not need to pipe the output of lintian through this command to see the extra information.)
Unlike lintian, lintian-annotate-hints will not load any code from these additional directories.
This option may appear more than once; each time adding an additional directory.
If not specified, annotate-lintian-hint loads the best profile for the current vendor.
Please Refer to the Lintian User Manual for the full documentation of profiles.
These option can appear multiple times, in which case the of them to appear determines the result.
