Bug#592491: lintian: check for missing dependency on python-support



Package: lintian
Version: 2.4.3
Severity: wishlist

If a binary package ships files in /usr/share/python-support/, it should have at least unversioned dependency on python-support.

If a binary package ships a /usr/share/python-support/PACAKGENAME.public or /usr/share/python-support/PACKAGENAME.private file, it should have dependency on at least python-support (>= 0.90).

An exception should be made for:
- python-support (it shouldn't depend on itself, of course);
- every FOO-dbg that depend on FOO (= SAMEVERSION).

Normally missing/insufficient dependency on python-support indicates that ${python:Depends} was omitted from Depends: in debian/control.
