It is not a problem per se for your packages, but might be a problem for your
system, which is highly unlikely, since lintian hardly does rm -rf
frivolously, but bugs happen and anyway nice to have in mind when lintian
authors say so.
What I meant to write was to install lintian as root inside the cow chroot,
and then check your packages as non-root, but I now see I missed to write that
in my previous message. This way your system is safe enough - nothing beats,
non-root inside chroot ;-)
