We would need to curate such a list — the code that was flagging up "dpatch" and friends was iterating over: https://salsa.debian.org/lintian/lintian/blob/master/data/common/dh_addons > [lintian] doesn't seem to detect > > %: > dh --whatever --options > > as needing debhelper for clean?

I'm not really that fussed about which tag emits it. :) More that it looks like we half do this already and when running the testsuite against my checks for these new tags, it flagged an existing testcase aforementioned tag :) Perhaps getting some concrete positives and false-positives from yourself would be the best, clearest and most efficient way forward here?
