You are using an older version of lintian (probably the one from Jessie). If you use lintian from sid, it will properly say that 3.9.8 is the latest version (and a couple of other things that changed in the mean time, e.g. the ldconfig trigger thing etc.). 3.9.8 is the correct current Standards-Version: https://tracker.debian.org/pkg/debian-policy For package builds, I tend to use pbuilder with a hook that automatically runs lintian at the end (and by default lets the build fail if lintian produces errors), but the hook runs the lintian version of the distribution I'm building against (i.e. installs lintian in the pbuilder chroot). That way, I get the proper error messages from the lintian version of the release I am building against. Regards, Christian
