Bug#757551: lintian: check if DEP-5 debian/copyright covers all files in the unpacked sources

[Johannes Schauer <j.schauer@email.de>]

Package: lintian
Version: 2.5.25
Severity: wishlist

Hi,

it seems that lintian does not yet notice if a DEP-5 debian/copyright
file misses specifying copyright information for some files in the
unpacked sources. It would be nice if lintian could warn if
debian/copyright misses to provide information about some files.

cheers, josch
