Bug#650791: lintian: Lab does not update info when component of package changes
Source: lintian
Version: 2.5.3ubuntu2
Usertags: origin-ubuntu precise
Ubuntu regularly moves (both source and binary) packages between
components in its repository (generally between main and universe). We
do not require a new upload or binNMU to do this move.
Since Lintian only re-processes a package when its version number
change, the cache about the package in the info/ section of a static
lab will be inaccurate until the package is updated. Because of this,
manual attempts to run lintian across the whole lab will error out.
