I don't like the tar change (I mean the change in tar, not necessarily
the change in lintian). The current solution will make lintian unusable
with older tar versions, which is a step futher than the perl library
backports needed so far.
I believe the change in tar behaviour is gratious, and will break not
only lintian, but also all kinds of sysadmin scripts and stuff like
that.
Now, from a lintian POV, there's not much we can do about it, so I have
no objections to uploading as it is now.
