Package: lintian-brush
Version: 0.179
Severity: normal

Hi,

executing lintian brush on aide yields the following message:
debian-rules-missing-recommended-target: debian/rules has parse errors, skipping: line 45: expected ':', line 45: expected ':'

debian/rules has only 44 lines, the last few lines being

override_dh_auto_configure-arch:
        dh_auto_configure -- $(strip ${COMMON_CONFIGURE_ARGS}) $(strip ${EXTRA_>

override_dh_autoreconf-indep:
override_dh_auto_configure-indep:

# make this execute_after_dh_auto_install after bookworm
override_dh_auto_install:
        dh_auto_install
        dh_installsystemd --name=dailyaidecheck
        dh_installsystemd --name=dailyaidecheck-buildcache
        # this is needed until dh compat 14
        dh_installsysusers

all indents are done with tabs in the file.

What am i doing wrong here?

Greetings
Marc
