Bug#930679: Please add overridable tag for not using dh sequencer



control: tags -1 -moreinfo


>  a) Name of this tag (eg. "package-does-not-use-dh")

That seems like a fine name

>  b) The "long description" of the tag with a brief rationale,
     references, etc.

The recommended way to implement the build process of a Debian package,
in the absence of a good reason to use a different approach, is the "dh"
tool from the debhelper package.  This package does not appear to use
the `dh` tool. There are sometimes good reasons to use a different
approach.  If one of these reasons applies to this package, override
this tag and describe the reason in the override.
(policy 4.9)


  c) The severity (ie. E/W/I/P)

I'd recommend starting out with warning.  Some day it might move to
error, but I think starting out there would be overly aggressive.
