Bug#797466: lintian: Correct grammar of dir-or-file-in-build-tree long description
* Niels Thykier <niels@thykier.net>, 2015-08-31, 07:39:
I would have no idea what this tag is about if I didn't look at the 
code. It triggers when the package include files in 
/var/cache/pbuilder/build/ or /var/lib/sbuild/ or /var/lib/buildd/.
But... how could it even happen that you ship stuff in any of these 
directories by accident? This doesn't seem plausible to me.
I am afraid it is very plausible.  Between May 18th 2013 and Sep 21. 
2013 we had instances of this tag on lintian.d.o.
OK, I stand corrected.
Where did you get this information? 
https://lintian.debian.org/tags/dir-or-file-in-build-tree.html says that 
tag has not been emitted.
I'm still curious to know how could it happen.
