linda doesn't run cleanly over the entire archive -- it misbehaves on
some packages (leaving /tmp/linda-* directories about), and just seems
to hang on others. I haven't tracked down what's causing this. I don't
believe it includes all the checks lintian does either, although in some
cases that might be a win...
