Bug#905467: lintian: Please detect source-only non-free uploads w/o opt-in autobuild
Package: lintian
Version: 2.5.94
Severity: wishlist
Hi!
I recently did a source-only QA upload for snmp-mibs-downloader, a
non-free package. And didn't notice until way later that the package
had not been migrated [M], because of the missing binaries, due to the
package not having opted into the non-free autobuild network.

I think lintian should at least warn (or perhaps even error) on
source-only non-free uploads that do not declare the Autobuild:yes
field. [A]

Thanks,
