silent-on-rules-requiring-root

The field Rules-Requires-Root is missing from the file debian/control.

Over time, Debian has successively narrowed the steps for which elevated privileges are required. It speeds up the building of installation packages in the archive. Eventually, Debian will switch the default archive-wide behaviour to expedite the build process further.

Please declare explicitly that the sources do not require root privileges. You can use the setting Rules-Requires-Root: no in the source stanza of debian/control, but please verify with diffoscope(1) that the installation packages produced are in fact identical.

Severity: pedantic
Experimental: false
Renamed from: rules-requires-root-missing
