Bug#788667: lintian: suggest adding DEP-8 tests when an automake installcheck-local target is detected



Package: lintian
Severity: wishlist

Automake allows for testing of an installation via a Makefile target
called installcheck-local[1]. There are a number[2] of packages in the
archive that implement this feature. It would be good if all of them had
DEP-8[3] tests that called the installcheck-local targets. Please detect
installcheck-local targets in make files named Makefile* and suggest
adding a DEP-8 test when there are no DEP-8 tests already.
