Bug#690273: lintian: check for dh_make boilerplate in changelog



Package: lintian
Version: 2.5.10.2
Severity: wishlist

dh_make adds the following changelog entry template:

* Initial release (Closes: #nnnn)  <nnnn is the bug number of your ITP>

Apparently not everybody removes the "<... is the bug number ...>" part. It
would be nice if lintian warned if it was left.

Real-world test case:
