Bug#514203: lintian: please check for version number badness



Package: lintian
Severity: wishlist

[I sent this to lintian-maint, filing a bug so it isn't forgotten]

I would like it if lintian warned about the following issues with
package version numbers:

1.2.3.dfsg1 (info/warning):

It should warn about this because of this:

1.2.3 < 1.2.3+dfsg1 < 1.2.3.4 < 1.2.3.dfsg1

My last NM found that more packages use the dot variant (621) than use
the plus variant (263). 

1.2.3.dsfg1 (pedantic/info):

dsfg is a spelling error, it should be dfsg instead.
