The webpage currently says that RPATH is allowed for packages within
the same source package, which is how it should be.

I wonder why lintian.d.o shows warnings for some of my packages [1],
while if I manually check them there are no warnings.  Is there some
discrepancy between lintian in the archive and the instance running at
lintian.d.o?  (IOW, I'm asking if this package will be REJECTed now,
which would be a bogus REJECT IMO.)
