Bug#823190: lintian: Please error out on orig tarball sigs for source 1.0



Package: lintian
Version: 2.5.44
Severity: wishlist

Hi!

With dpkg 1.18.5, orig tarball signatures for format 1.0 will be
accepted for extraction and building, which means stable systems will
not be able to extract them. Extraction of orig taball signatures for
format >= 2.0 have been accepted since dpkg 1.17.20, so these are
safe to use.

It would be nice if lintian could error out when finding an orig
tarball signature on source format 1.0 packages.

The pattern for the signature is «<basename>.orig.tar.gz.asc».

Thanks,
Guillem
