Package: lintian
Version: 2.5.52
Severity: normal
Lintian can't decide between
W: zsh source: useless-autoreconf-build-depends autotools-dev
and
E: zsh source: missing-build-dependency-for-dh_-command
dh_autotools-dev_restoreconfig => autotools-dev
for a compat level 10 source package.
The only change between these two errors/warnings is this commit:
commit d092760816ef0149321db35dc9ac68d707600407 (debian)
Author: Axel Beckert <a...@deuxchevaux.org>
Date: Thu Aug 10 21:40:15 2017 +0200
Drop build-dependencies on autotools-dev and dh-autoreconf
No more needed with debhelper compatibility level 10 and the according
versioned build-dependency.
Thanks: Lintian for the hint.

The relevant lines from debian/rules are these:

97 dh_autotools-dev_restoreconfig
98 rm -f build build-static

102 dh_clean
(See https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=698765#27 for
some discussion and reasoning about these lines.)
As far as I can see, the missing-build-dependency-for-dh_-command error
is the wrong one as the package builds fine under pbuilder with this
commit and without these build-dependencies despite this error.
