>&#13;        Lintian's laboratory directory can be defined via
        the <CODE

>LINTIAN_LAB</CODE
> variable (either in the
        configuration file or as environment variable). If this
        variable is not defined, Lintian creates a temporary lab
        in <TT
CLASS="filename"
>/tmp</TT
> which is
        removed again after Lintian has completed its checks. This

        set up first before it can be used by Lintian. This can be
