Package: lintian
Version: 1.24.3

I'm unhappy about lintian ignoring UNRELEASED as a distribution in the 
changelog file as a result of the change made in response to #382327.

Intentionally changing the default behavior of lintian to not report a known 
error because "it's annoying during testing" makes no sense to me at all.  If
filtering this error is important to enough users, perhaps a new option would
be appropriate as an alternative to changing the default?

Please revert this change.

Hi,

This bug has been marked wontfix since Dec 2008, so I am taking the
liberty of closing this without doing the requested revert.

On a related note, it is now possible to write your own lintian
checks[1].  This makes it possible to write a check for this particular
issue.
