[Pkg-tcltk-devel] source-is-missing

[Héctor Romojaro Gómez]

Hi Stefan and all!

If the source is not really missing, please check for overlong lines[1]
(lintian should also complain about those, but the visibility is
"pedantic").

>From the "source-is-missing" description:

"Please note, that very-long-line-length-in-source-file tagged files
are likely tagged source-is-missing. It is a feature not a bug."

[1] https://lintian.debian.org/tags/very-long-line-length-in-source-file

Kind regards,
Héctor
