There should be no Lintian messages regarding MAY items. If any
such thing is considered to warrant a Lintian Warning or Error
message, Policy should be changed to make it a SHOULD or MUST item.
It is ridiculous to have Policy say something is permissible or
acceptable, and then have Lintian pop up with a Warning.
