 # Completed Steps
 
+- fix the lint-image pin comments and `FROM` form in `Dockerfile` and
+  `Dockerfile.lint` (2026-08-10, branch `next`, closes
+  https://git.eeqj.de/sneak/sfdupes/issues/25): dropped the false
+  `(Debian-based)` parenthetical (v2.12.1 was Debian too) and the
+  redundant tag, so both pins are the policy `# image:vX.Y.Z,
+  YYYY-MM-DD` comment over a bare `FROM image@sha256:...`. Digest
+  unchanged. `script/verify-lint-image-pin` parses those `FROM` lines
+  and still matches the tagless form; its advice line lost the now
+  meaningless "tag and digest". With no tag in either reference, a
+  tag-only disagreement no longer exists — a one-sided tag is caught as
+  a plain mismatch.
