Lintian is already aware of this, as mentioned by Niels: http://lintian.debian.org/tags/inconsistent-testsuite-field.html but the tag is currently not a warning. Did you mean to suggest that we ask the lintian maintainers to promote that tag to an actual warning? FWIW, I'd welcome that. Regarding the MBF, I didn't mean to propose another one. I was merely pointing to the old one to observe its evolution over time.
