Bug#447257: lintian: deb-data-member-wrongly-compressed is outdated?

[Lars Wirzenius <liw@iki.fi>]

Package: lintian

http://lintian.debian.org/reports/Tdeb-data-member-wrongly-compressed.html

deb-data-member-wrongly-compressed
        The binary package contains a data member not compressed with
        gzip. From dpkg-dev 1.11 on, you can configure the way the data
        tarball is compressed. Though this is possible, you are not
        allowed to use it before dpkg 1.11 (or later) enters stable.

As far as I can see, etch (current stable) contains 1.13.25 (see
http://packages.debian.org/stable/admin/dpkg), so the lintian error
should now be out of date and could be deleted. Right?
