Greeting,
my recent upload of file (1:5.43-3) to experiental broke lintian's autopkgtest.
Possibly this is the relevant section.

While I didn't check what precisely went wrong, I reckon it's a slightly
changed output on gz-compressed files.
Can you please check and adjust your tests? I'd like to upload to
unstable in a week or so, and I'd prefer to have no autopkgtest breakage
by then.
Sorry for the mess, and I'm sorry this will happen again - upstream
changes file's output every now and then. The only help I can provide is
to add your package to the list of those that should receive a
notification when uploading a new upstream version, see
https://sources.debian.org/src/file/1%3A5.41-4/debian/README.Maintainer/#L16
If you want lintian to be included, just say the word.
Regards,
Christoph
