For what it's worth, cme is able to detect and fix this issue. Here's the cme in action to fix the problem shown by lintian: $ cme fix dpkg-control Reading package lists... Done Building dependency tree Reading state information... Done Warning in 'binary:"golang-github-danverbraganza-varcaser-dev" Description' value 'Varcaser is a library for converting variables between different programming language casing conventions.
