Hi,

The Lintian maintainers are pleased to announce the release of Lintian
version 2.91.0.

Lintian dissects Debian packages and reports bugs and policy
violations. It contains automated checks for many aspects of Debian
policy as well as some checks for common errors.

This version includes the following changes:

  [ Felix Lechner ]
  * Set most spelling-related tags to info or pedantic level and improve
    line references for spelling errors in override files. (Re: #968416)
  * Issue the repeated-path-segments tag only directories only.
  * For the first time, unpack tarballs in orig index and use centralized
    streaming unpacker.
.
  [ Chris Lamb ]
  * Clarify the grammar of the package-uses-old-debhelper-compat-version
    tag.

This version available now in Debian unstable and will be backported
to buster-backports once it has migrated to bullseye.
