Package: lintian Version: 2.5.27 Severity: minor The new tag unused-file-paragraph-in-dep5-copyright is rather confusing: it is triggered also by a wrong order of paragraph.
I suggest one of the following:
1) split the check in something like inexistent-file-in-dep5-copyright and
overridden-file-paragraph-in-dep5-copyright
2) extend the description to tell about the importance of the paragraph order
Thanks for developing lintian, and help us keep our package in order :)
