Bug#907836: lintian: add check for usage of invoke-rc.d --skip-systemd-native without a suitable Pre-Depends
Package: lintian
Version: 2.5.99
Severity: wishlist
Hi,
In version 1.52 of init-system-helpers, a new option
--skip-systemd-native is added to invoke-rc.d. Debhelper will probably
start using it soon on compat 12 and above[1].
Please add an error tag for usage of the flag without a corresponding
versioned Pre-Depends. If the snippet was inserted by debhelper, then
the following line is recommended:
Pre-Depends: ${misc:Pre-Depends}
If the call was inserted manually, then the Pre-Depends needs to be done
manually.
