Lintian does not complain about missing binary-arch or binary-indep target in 
debian/rules. But when I upload an archive to mentors.debian.net I get the 
following 2 Lintian errors :

N:

Ok, thanks. I'm closing the bug report in that case.

lintian runs a different set of checks on source packages and binary
packages. That's somewhat unavoidable - debian/rules only exists in the
source package, for instance, so running lintian against the binary
(.deb) package can't highlight any issues with the rules files.
