Bug#441807: lintian: Please check data package depends



Package: lintian
Version: 1.23.34
Severity: wishlist

$package-data are defined in debian/control, $package should have
Depends: $package-data (= ${source:version})
Perhaps there should also be a warning if $package-data does not have
Recommends: $package
(with any version, I suppose.)

Thanks,
Bas Wijnen
