I'd also get a lot of warnings from this since I usually only list
misc:Depends for the packages that actually need it, but there's no simple
way of telling which binary packages would pick up misc:Depends.

Unfortunately, listing it without having anything use it results in a
warning during the package build, so a lot of people fix the warning by
removing it (understandably).
