Package: lintian
Version: 2.5.46
Severity: important
Tags: sid stretch
User: debian-gcc@lists.debian.org
Usertags: hardening-wrapper
This package builds using the hardening-includes package, which
is now replaced by dpkg-dev's DEB_BUILD_MAINT_OPTIONS settings.
Please consider dropping the build dependency of hardening-includes
and use the DEB_BUILD_MAINT_OPTIONS settings.
The goal is to remove hardening-wrapper for the stretch release.
Discussion about the removal is tracked in https://bugs.debian.org/836162
The severity of this report is likely to be raised before the release,
so that the hardening-wrapper package can be removed for the release.

Lintian does not use hardening-includes to provide a hardened compiler,
but to use hardening-check.
AFAICT, this issue does not apply to lintian unless hardening-check goes
away as well or is moved to a different package.
Thanks,
