I was looking for a linter that would do the simplest thing: checking for a file present.

I knew it could be solved by a simplest shell-script, but I wanted something more integral and maintainable.

I found repolinter project from TODO Group, but it was stale, abandoned and archived.

So, I decided to make my first serious fork and refresh it.

For the first time in my life, my modest pull request was accepted into a mainstream project (AppArmor). That was also my first attempt.

All because of intense hatred for warnings in system logs. And because I read dmesg for fun.

The "who" utility from Rust-based coreutils was triggering AppArmor warnings on my Kubuntu box while trying to access its own localizations. The fix was trivial, and the AppArmor maintainers are blazing fast.

Now I officially refuse to talk to plebs without comparable legacy in open source.
