Bug#965335: Lintian: missing complaining of Lintian
Hello Felix,
thanks for picking it up.
I had the problem with
<pkg-java-maintainers@lists.alioth.debian.org
instead of
<pkg-java-maintainers@lists.alioth.debian.org>
After uploading something finds the problem and claims that "bad
maintainer address".
.
I want to have this message back (bad maintainer address) so I know what
I have to fix for a proper upload.
I guess for the new queue there is a test for proper maintainer addresses.
I hope we can minimize the difference in checking a package.
Kind regards
Mechtilde
