Bug#334822: lintian: Report Info on four components Standards-Version
Package: lintian
Version: 1.23.13
Severity: wishlist
Debian Policy (section 5.6.11 and note 30) explicitly allows 4-components
Standards-Version fields. However, as a new maintainter, I've been
suggested on debian-mentors to stick with 3-components.
Should lintian suggests sticking with 3-components (level: info) ? There's
a bit of personal taste here.
