Package: lintian Version: 2.5.59 Severity: wishlist Dear Maintainer,
as you know the concept of manually maintained -dbg packages has been
superseeded by automatically created -dbgsym ones during the stretch
development cycle.
So I was about to propose a warning for -dbg packages just to find it's
already implemented as debian-control-has-obsolete-dbg-package - but
marked experimental.
In my opinion the severity should be raised, and actually above warning
level.
Related, unless there's still a situation where -dbg packages serve a
purpose - I'm not aware of such and cannot think of any either - I
wouldn't mind if ftp-master starts to autoreject such packages, perhaps
with NMUs as an exception.
