Lintian diagnoses this as "[build-]depends-on-obsolete-package" since 2.116.0 (MR at [1], instances of the relevant tags listed at [2] and [3]) which will hopefully help progress towards dropping the transitional package. [1] https://salsa.debian.org/lintian/lintian/-/merge_requests/417 (partially reverted in https://salsa.debian.org/lintian/lintian/-/merge_requests/452 but the freetype part remains) [2] https://udd.debian.org/lintian-tag.cgi?tag=build-depends-on-obsolete-package [3] https://udd.debian.org/lintian-tag.cgi?tag=depends-on-obsolete-package Unfortunately lintian.debian.org is not currently updating, so please don't use that as a source. smcv
