Package: lintian Version: 2.137.1 Severity: normal X-Debbugs-Cc: [email protected]
Dear Maintainer, The Ubuntu lintian package needs to be updated every time there is a new Ubuntu release. We have the distro-info-data package that provides the list of distribution codenames. I like to propose that lintian should add a dependency on distro-info-data. Then the code in lib/Lintian/Check/Fields/Distribution.md and Mantainer.pm should try to read the codenames from /usr/share/distro-info/<distro>.csv in addition to the static `changes-file/known-dists`. -- Benjamin Drung Debian & Ubuntu Developer
