Bug#365452: lintian: Please check more strictly for weird file permissions.
Package: lintian
Version: 1.23.16
Severity: wishlist
$ ls -l /usr/sbin/post{drop,queue}
-r-xr-sr-x 1 root postdrop 8736 Apr 7 16:48 /usr/sbin/postdrop*
-r-xr-sr-x 1 root postdrop 9988 Apr 7 16:48 /usr/sbin/postqueue*
The above is a violation of section 10.9 of the Debian Policy, but lintian
doesn't complain.
$ dpkg -S /usr/sbin/post{drop,queue}
postfix: /usr/sbin/postdrop
postfix: /usr/sbin/postqueue
$ dpkg-query -W postfix
postfix 2.2.10-1
