Bug#885693: lintian: python-package-depends-on-package-from-other-python-variant should permit links to -doc packages
Package: lintian
Version: 2.5.66
Severity: normal
The new tag python-package-depends-on-package-from-other-python-variant
complains about the relationship:
Package: python3-bumps
Suggests: python-bumps-doc, …
It's pretty standard for the documentation for Python module packages to
be shipped only in the python-foo-doc package and not to have an additional
python3-foo-doc package. Perhaps m/python-.*-doc$/ should be included as
a special case that is permitted for cross-interpreter relationships?
