According to the lintian description in
<http://lintian.debian.org/tags/debian-rules-missing-recommended-target.html>
"build-arch" and "build-indep" should be added to the paragraph
above as required targets.
Lintian is wrong:
afaics, lintian is perfectly correct; the submitter's reading of the
quoted page is in error. The tag name and description both say
"recommended" and I don't see anything in the description which suggests
they are required.
the official policy is the one written in
debian-policy not in the lintian code.
And lintian isn't attempting to claim otherwise.
