Bug#472247: lintian: Please extend binnmu checks to include the Pre-Depends field

[Lior Kaplan <kaplan@debian.org>]

Package: lintian
Version: 1.23.46
Severity: normal

Hi,

Checking the bacula source package for binnmu competability, I noticed more
problems than lintain reports.

Please include the Pre-Depends field in the binnmu checks.

Thanks.
