Bug#975690: lintian: detect invalid Uploaders fields that are missing separating commas
I think that Debian needs to know what the format of Uploaders is supposed to
be, before it is reasonable to hope that lintian can check that it is correct.
(well ok, policy often works the other way around, but there needs to be the
rough consensus first rather than lintian driving policy)
Perhaps there is a rough consensus in these discussions so far:
