Bug#545219: lintian: many false positives for debian-rules-calls-debhelper-in-odd-order check
Package: lintian
Version: 2.2.14
Severity: normal
When running lintian on the antlr source package I get this:
W: antlr source: debian-rules-calls-debhelper-in-odd-order dh_installdeb (line 137)
W: antlr source: debian-rules-calls-debhelper-in-odd-order dh_gencontrol (line 138)

W: antlr source: debian-rules-calls-debhelper-in-odd-order dh_gencontrol (line 210)
But when looking at the debian/rules file for antlr source package I see the following:

To me this looks like a false positive as all dh_* calls use -p explicitely
on a specific package.
