Package: lintian Version: 1.23.17 Severity: normal Lintian's latest Python build-dependency checks are a bit too strict IMO -- in particular, they insist on direct build-dependencies on python, whereas I would argue that build-dependencies on python-dev should be sufficient.
Could you please loosen the checks accordingly?
