More than 6 months later, it seems that this bug is still unfixed in
lintian: running lintian/2.114.0 produces the same complaints.

Is there any hope this bug can get fixed soon, along with the other RC
bugs currently open against lintian, so that lintian can work better in
sid (and also migrate to testing, see bug [#1003643] ...)?


By the way: a new version (4.6.1) of Debian Policy has been released and
[announced] on May, the 11th, 2022: the lintian version currently in
unstable (2.114.0) still fails to recognize it as a valid Policy
version...
