pkglint -Wall -r --autofix --only aligned
After running the above command, three packages had to be adjusted
manually:
In maelstrom-x11, pkglint didn't see that a commented variable
assignment should have been re-aligned as well.
In netmaze, there was a single line that didn't align well with all the
others, but pkglint decided to adjust the whole paragraph to this single
line. The result would have been ok, but not good.
In tscp, there was a paragraph where some of the lines were indented
one space more than the others. This rule is useful when one variable
name is very long compared to the others, but not in this case.
