(bug report text stolen from #444336, thanks to dato)
Hello.
Since now dpkg recognizes and supports a Homepage field (introduced in
1.14.6), I think it'd be very good if lintian:
* would not yield unknown-field-in-control when it's present (note
that it's an I:, not a W:, but still)
* detects usage of the pseudo-field Homepage in the description (as in
/^ +Homepage:/i, eg.), and recommends that a proper Homepage field
in the first stanza of debian/control is used instead.
This would be particularly useful to get the "when to update devref and
policy" ball moving (the first move having been dpkg implementing it, of
course :).
