Bug#468147: Check for correct lsb-base dependency for init script functions



Package: lintian
Version: 1.23.45
Severity: wishlist

Hi

while reviewing some sponsored packages I noticed quite often mistake of
missing dependency on lsb-base (>= 3.0-6) if init script includes
/lib/lsb/init-functions. I think it would be reasonable to add such
check to lintian - if init script sources /lib/lsb/init-functions,
package should depend on lsb-base (>= 3.0-6).
