Package: lintian Version: 2.5.30 Severity: normal Tags: patch Hi,
dpkg allows the Testsuite header since 1.17.10, so Lintian should warn if packages still use the XS-Testsuite header. An unknown (because codesearch cannot display the number of found packages and I stopped clicking "next" after 10 pages) amount of packages uses this header: http://codesearch.debian.net/search?q=XS-Testsuite+path%3Adebian%2Fcontrol Lintian should warn about its usage and recommend that the Testsuite header is used instead. Please see attached patch. cheers, josch
