 Probably yes (since this report was three years ago... ;)

You mean, it accesses the internet to check the URI?

Bug#774488: lintian: implement feature like Vcswatch (wishlist)

Package: lintian
Severity: wishlist

Hi,

 Vcswatch(*) is nice but it detects failure _after_ uploaded packages to
 repository. I hope if lintian could have same feature like below one.

 Error: The Vcs URL git://git.debian.org/pkg-nlp-ja/mecab-naist-jdic.git is 
  deprecated/defunct, git://anonscm.debian.org/pkg-nlp-ja/mecab-naist-jdic.git
  was tried instead. Please update the Vcs field in debian/control.

 Just checking Vcs-Git field and warn for using git.debian.org
 (and maybe svn.debian.org for Vcs-Svn as well).
