Package: lintian Version: 2.5.13 Severity: normal The dbg-package-missing-depends test is broken for packages that contain characters that have special meaning in regular expressions. Of the characters that have special meaning in regular expressions, the full stop (.) and the plus sign (+) are allowed in package names. These must be escaped when the regular expression in the lintian test is created. Proposed patch attached.
