I downloaded Bisq-64bit-1.9.8.deb from Bisq software.

I ran lintian since I noticed GDebi Package Installer does so, to check.

`$ lintian Bisq-64bit-1.9.8.deb`

prints:

```auto

```

(I omitted the warnings.)

Could someone help me understand the errors please?

Should I do or fix something before updating Bisq (i.e. running $ dpkg -i Bisq-64bit-1.9.8)?

Don’t let the “moderator” tag fool, you, I’m just a regular user, but I’ve never used lintian to be able to install and use Bisq properly with `dpkg -i`.  
So, if this is stopping you from using Bisq, I think you shouldn’t. If you’re simply curious, that’s great, just wait for replies and raise the thread if you don’t have good ones.

Thanks for the note. Yeah I am mostly curious.  
I had never used Lintian so far. First time.  
Still, if someone has an idea of what these Errors mean (or thoughts about Lintian), I am interested.
