Tag: bin-or-sbin-binary-requires-usr-lib-library
Description: This package ships a binary in /bin or /sbin that requires a
 library in /usr/lib.  This will make impossible to use this binary before /usr
 is mounted.

Tag: broken-binfmt-detector
Description: The detector registered with update-binfmts(8) does not exist.

Tag: broken-binfmt-interpreter
Description: The interpreter registered with update-binfmts(8) does not exist.

Tag: broken-symlink
Description: This package ships a symlink which points to a non-existent file.

Tag: incompatible-licenses
Description: Licenses of the libraries the binary is linked to are
 incompatible.

Tag: ldd-failure
Description: Running "`ldd -r`" on the file failed unexpectedly.  This is most
 like a bug in libc or adequate itself.

 `x-terminal-emulator`, but it doesn't register itself as an alternative for

 `/usr/bin/x-window-manager`.

Tag: missing-copyright-file
Description: The copyright file for this package is missing.  This often
 happens if /usr/share/doc/<pkg>/ was a real directory in a previous version of
 the package, but it's now a symlink; dpkg never replaces directory with a
 symlink to a directory.

Tag: missing-pkgconfig-dependency
Description: Dependency of a pkg-config (.pc) file shipped by this package
 couldn't be satisfied.

 unversioned ones.

Tag: obsolete-conffile
Description: The current version of this package no longer ships a conffile
 (that used to be included in the past).  However, the conffile hasn't been
 removed on upgrade.

Tag: pyshared-file-not-bytecompiled
Description: This package ships Python modules in /usr/share/pyshared that are
 not byte-compiled.

Tag: symbol-size-mismatch
Description: The symbol has changed size since the package was built.  It might
 be an indication that the library broke ABI.  If ABI wasn't broken, and the
 library bumped shlibs (or symbols), the package should be binNMUed.

Tag: undefined-symbol
Description: The symbol has not been found in the libraries linked with the
 binary.  Either the binary either needs to be linked with an additional shared
 library, or the dependency on the shared library package that provides this
 symbol is too weak.
