Bug#671058: lintian: DEP-3 From field - name preceeds email
Package: lintian
Version: 2.5.6
Severity: wishlist
For debian/patches in DEP-3 format, please add some check to warn about
headers like this (From/Author):
From: <dfg@example.com>
Subject: Fix FTBFS ....
Something like:
I: patches-header-from-missing-person-name
The tag description could suggest that the person name would be written in
full; at least consisting of two words before <>:
From: Firstname Lastname <dfg@example.com>
Subject: Fix FTBFS ....
There may be more than two words like in spanish names, but 99% of the cases
people have at least two identification words for the first and last
name/family name (like in Japan).
