We've discussed this a few times over the years. Lintian has enough to do already without doing cross-package checks, and I don't see this as changing. You (or anyone else) are certainly welcome to maintain additional package checking scripts that do things like this, and we keep the bugs available as wontfix-tagged bugs as ideas for other projects. -- Russ Allbery ([email protected]) <http://www.eyrie.org/~eagle/> -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
