Bug#843331: lintian: check for embedded-pear-module needs to be more granular for unstable/testing/stretch
Package: lintian
Version: 2.5.49
Severity: normal
Dear Maintainer,
due the PHP7 transition at least the suggestion for using
php-mail-mimedecode for PEAR related code is wrong for testing/stretch
or above.
I discovered this issue while updating the d-push package which includes
modified files from PEAR. The following output is given for example:
X: z-push-common: embedded-pear-module usr/share/z-push/include/mimeDecode.php please use php-mail-mimedecode
But php-mail-mimedecode was removed from testing on 02 May 2016

This is due a ROM because of the PHP7 transition.

I don't know if there is a aquivalent package available after the PHP7
transition. If not this warning needs to be otherwise solved.
Regards
Carsten
