Embedded six.py in many packages: can someone add a lintian check?

[Thomas Goirand <zigo@debian.org>]

Hi,

It's looking like we have *many* instances of six.py in the archive:

# apt-file search /six.py | wc -l
53

(minus six itself, and because it's often reported twice, I believe
there's about 25 occurrences, I didn't take the time to manually count).

This is quite bad. I even discovered that it's looking like I have let
it slip in one of my packages as well.

To avoid that it grows out of proportion, can someone add a lintian
check for that? I'd be *very* happy to have this check for myself as
well, so that I don't miss it once more (it's quite easy to miss...).

Also, am I the only one that believe this is a bug, and that we should
do mass bug-filling?

Thoughts anyone?
Cheers,
