@lamby: It is a build-profile (not a file). As used in e.g. the Build-Profiles field in d/control. Regarding the proposal: Lintian is not the one deciding the namespace rules for build-profiles. We only emit tags based on the existing guidelines/namespace rules (https://wiki.debian.org/BuildProfileSpec). I have CC'ed Helmut as he is more involved in the build-profiles work. Thanks, ~Niels
