Bug#324728: lintian: [config] Move /etc/lintianrc under /etc/<package>/



Package: lintian
Version: 1.23.11
Severity: minor

The /etc hierarchy is quite polluted with various configuration files.
It would be better if packages kept configuration files under their
own directories (easier for backups etc.).

Please move /etc/lintianrc => /etc/<package>/config or
/etc/<package>/lintianrc
