Bug#923696: lintian: Bad examples in Lintian::Tutorial::TestSuite



Hi Louis-Philippe,

I've pushed a change to CONTRIBUTING.md that should make this more
prominent:

  https://salsa.debian.org/lintian/lintian/commit/32a564d3e8e35c18a19cb8d3db82a9f191002ea7

Hopefully this should be enough to finally close this issue.

In addition to trying to keep this up-to-date I suggest that, however
helpful that we think it might be in the moment, documenting useful
behaviour on bug reports or in Salsa merge request (both of which will
in-practice get lost) is distinctly sub-optimal and reduces the number
and level of contributions over time.


Regards,
