Bug#832398: lintian: privacy-breach-generic should not warn about <script> inside HTML comments

[Sean Whitton <spwhitton@spwhitton.name>]

Package: lintian
Version: 2.5.45
Severity: normal

Dear maintainers,

privacy-breach-generic warns about these <script> tags in my package's
HTML documentation:

    <!-- HTML5 shim and Respond.js IE8 support of HTML5 elements and media queries -->
    <!--[if lt IE 9]>
        <script src="https://oss.maxcdn.com/libs/html5shiv/3.7.0/html5shiv.js";></script>
        <script src="https://oss.maxcdn.com/libs/respond.js/1.3.0/respond.min.js";></script>
    <![endif]-->

Since IE is not installable on Debian systems, there is no risk of a
privacy breach here.

Thanks!
