Bug#463028: lintian should complain about use of dh_* without proper versioned build-dep



Package: lintian
Severity: wishlist

Hi,

while backporting a package (scorched3d) for etch, I found the package
depending on debhelper >= 5.0.0 but using dh_icons which was introduced
in 5.0.51[1], which first resulted in a build-error on etch.

Wouldn't it be nice if lintian would know about dh_* scripts and raise
a warning when a bad versioned build-dep (like the one described above)
is found?
