Yes, I think we've reached a consensus about that. However, this hasn't
been `officially approved' or incorporated in the manuals yet. I'll
include it in the next policy weekly posting.

Great!! Thanks for the patch. (I have a few notes to the script, but I'll
reply in private mail since I don't think that's intresting for the others
here.)


Thanks,

Chris

PS: I was really happy to see you providing the patch! As lintian uses a
very modular design it should be easy for others to contribute new checks.
Patches are always welcome!
