Bug#916021: lintian: Please check for references to build directory

Alas, I don't think the output of Lintian should ever change depending
on what directory you run it from!

Not only would this be highly misleading as a user-interface it would
also have false positives if you ran it on a previously built package
or — just being silly for a second — from "/".

However, we could trust the "Build-Path" field in a .buildinfo if it
exists? Would that work for you? I assume yours contains:

  Build-Path: /home/iu/devel/salsa/ucscpi-tcp"?
  
(You may need to pass --buildinfo-option=--always-include-path to
dpkg-buildpackage.)


Best wishes,
