Bug#480939: check for brace bashism in debhelper config files



Package: lintian
Version: 1.23.48
Severity: wishlist

It seems that some people may decide that using brace expansion (ie,
docs/{foo,bar}) in a debian/package.docs file is a good idea. Despite it
not being documented anywhere, not being an intended syntax, working
only by accident in certian configurations, and of course, FTBFS if
/bin/sh is not bash.

Could lintian please check all debhelper config files for this
craziness?

(See #480868.)
