Bug#331672: lintian: [po-debconf] dependency check on debconf is broken



Package: lintian
Version: 1.23.12
Severity: normal

Hi,

In order to prevent false positives, checks have been added to
checks/po-debconf to see if the package depends upon debconf.
This is done by parsing debian/control, but nowadays this
dependency is pulled in by ${misc:Depends}, so checks/po-debconf
stops before running its own checks, which makes checks/po-debconf
pretty useless.

Denis
