Bug#834867: lintian: Please allow uniformly compressed .debs in Debian

[Guillem Jover <guillem@debian.org>]

Package: lintian
Version: 2.5.46
Severity: wishlist

Hi!

As proposed on debian-devel [P], I'd like to switch dpkg-deb to
generate uniformly compressed .debs by default soon. This would
require for ftpmasters to agree, for lintian to stop emitting
autoreject tags and I guess for a backport to be installed in
ftp-master. I'm CCing ftpmasters so that they can voice in.

Thanks,
