Bug#886479: lintian: Please detect packages that currently needs R³!=no

[Niels Thykier <niels@thykier.net>]

Package: lintian
Version: 2.5.66
Severity: wishlist

Hi,

Please consider adding a check for packages that (at the moment) must
definitely be needing Rules-Requires-Root != no.  A lower-bound on
this would be:

  Any _source_ building at least one _binary_ package containing at
  least one path with ownership different from "root:root".

This check should be at most a wishlist tag and would assist us in
telling how far we are from being able to flip the default for
Rules-Requires-Root.

Thanks,
~Niels
