Bug#707906: lintian: examples for third-party checks



Package: lintian
Severity: wishlist

It would be nice to have some examples for third-party checks. As an
example, for the last few uploads I forgot to add debian/upstream files
and I would like to remind myself for future uploads that they are
missing. This is obviously not yet suitable for an in-lintian test so I
would like to implement it as a third-party check and simple examples of
this sort of thing would help. Checking for a specific file being
present or not, checking for specific fields in debian/control, simple
examples of that sort of thing would be helpful. Section 3.3 of the
manual is a good reference but it needs simple and complete examples.
