Package: lintian
Version: 2.3.0
Severity: normal

Hi,

I just experienced a spurious lintian warning (watch file missing) on a
newly created local native package with version (0.0.1).
The warning disappears if I add a second revision (0.0.2) to debian/changelog,
so native detection does not work for either (0.0.1) or the initial
release of a native package (exactly one entry in debian/changelog).

(Also happens with lintian 2.2.18 in testing.)


Andreas

There indeed should be.  We have a check for the other way around, but not
one for that case.  I'll add one.  Thanks!
