Package: lintian
Version: 2.5.25
Severity: wishlist

Dear Lintian Hackers,

the recent upload of libcdio 0.92-1 to experimental causes nearly every
APT-based command (at least "apt-get update", "apt-cache policy foobar",
"apt-get source libcdio=0.92-1", and "aptitude" to argue about an
unknown Multi-Arch type:

$ apt-cache policy foobar
W: Unknown Multi-Arch type 'no' for package 'libcdio-dev'
W: Unknown Multi-Arch type 'no' for package 'libiso9660-dev'
W: Unknown Multi-Arch type 'no' for package 'libudf-dev'
W: You may want to run apt-get update to correct these problems
N: Unable to locate package foobar
$

(See https://bugs.debian.org/759099 for the according report.)

Lintian so far seems not to detect this annoying issue.  So please emit
an Error level warning if the Multi-Arch control field in any source or
binary package contains unknown values, or at least if it contains "no".

TIA

Closing as obsolete because:

 * dak implemented an auto-reject for this
 * debhelper currently explicitly "unsets" the field if it is set to no
   (i.e. it ensures that "M-A: no" does not appear in the binary
    package)

At this point, lintian is too late to the ball. :)

Thanks,
~Niels
