Yeah, poeople on mentors have very frequently thanked Lintian for those
short solutions to the problem. If the recommended command line isn't
likely to change much, I tend to lean towards including it, even if it's
also documented in the external reference. Chasing down the reference
takes more effort, particularly when running lintian from the command line
where you don't get clickable hyperlinks.
