Package: lintian
Version: 2.4.3
Severity: wishlist
Hi,
there should be a test for using 'dpkg-divert --listpackage' in
maintainer scripts. This option was introduced in dpkg 1.15, so it is
not available in lenny and having it explicitly in debian/control of a
package making use of this option would make backporting easier (well,
makes it clear from the beginning that the package won't work in lenny
without changes).
Andreas

Thanks for the suggestion.
Since squeeze was released with a version of dpkg greater than 1.15 I think
it is pointless to add this check for wheezy. I'm therefore closing this
report.
Cheers,
