Package: lintian
Version: 2.5.117
Severity: wishlist

Dear Maintainer,

According to the comments at the beginning of the file, /etc/lintianrc uses
shell syntax (it gets sourced I presume).

However all the later commented example options do not use said valid syntax.

It would be better if people could just uncomment, rather than needing to fix
the syntax as well.

Best
