I'd suggest this be done both with dpkg-source format v3 quilt and
dpkg-source v1 with manual quilt setup.
It was mentioned on IRC that dpkg-source supports vendor-specific
series files. So, I think that lintian should look at all of the series
files that are present and only warn when none of them have the patch.
From the code it appears that debian/patches/series and
debian/patches/*.series should match all the series files.
sub get_series_file {
my $self = shift;
my $vendor = lc(get_current_vendor() || 'debian');
# Series files are stored alongside patches
my $default_series = $self->get_patch_file('series');
my $vendor_series = $self->get_patch_file("$vendor.series");
return $vendor_series if -e $vendor_series;
return $default_series;
}
