I was going to ask the same. Is the new ftp-master server running an old 
lintian? The changelog of lintian 2.5.31 says "Allow debug packages without an 
extended description.", and since they're generated automatically by debhelper 
without entries in debian/control, we are not supposed to be required to add 
such entries, are we?
