Package: lintian Version: 1.24.0 Severity: minor Greetings, An email address in a control field, e.g. Uploaders, should work with a comma in a quoted string, such as of the form: "Smith, John" <john.smith@gmail.com> See for example RFC822 Appendix A.1.3. Unfortunately, lintian treats it as separate addresses "Smith, and John" <john.smith@gmail.com> resulting in false positives for NMU and a bunch of related tests. Meanwhile, changelog has never required quoting of names with commas (that I know of), so lintian should be able to identify a match between Smith, John <john.smith@gmail.com> in changelog and "Smith, John" <john.smith@gmail.com> in control.
