Bug#548805: lintian: Packages using update-inetd must depend on inet-superserver

[Serafeim Zanikolas <serzan@hellug.gr>]

Package: lintian
Version: 2.2.17
Severity: normal

Hi,

The tag maintainer-script-needs-depends-on-update-inetd recommends to depend
on either inet-superserver or update-inetd, when it fact the later is
redundant (a dependency on inet-superserver indirectly satisfies the
update-inetd dependency)

And of course the tag would have to be renamed to
maintainer-script-needs-depends-on-inet-superserver

Number of packages affected:

$ cat /var/lib/apt/lists/ftp.be.debian.org_debian_dists_unstable_main_binary-i386_Packages
| grep-dctrl -F Depends update-inetd -a --not -F Provides inet-superserver -s
Package  | wc -l
41

Cheers,
Serafeim
