Bug#236846: lintian: [debconf] Should warn about 'yes' or 'no' default to boolean templates

[Martin Quinson <Martin.Quinson@tuxfamily.org>]

Package: lintian
Version: 1.22.12~rc1-r100
Severity: wishlist

It should be 'true' or 'false' instead. The best would be to check the
config and postinst, but that seem almost intractable. So, checking the
default value would be a good first guess.

I did that error while converting localepurge to po-debconf. That's
version 0.62.
