Bug#693117: qa.debian.org: Homepage in binary package not displayed in PTS



reassign 693117 lintian
severity 693117 wishlist
retitle 693117 lintian: please check Homepage field in binary packages
thanks

Hi lintian maintainers,

Homepage fields in binary packages, while allowed by policy, cannot be
displayed in PTS because it works on source packages.

I think these packages could be tagged I: homepage-in-binary-package 
and note about it won't be displayed on PTS with a recommendation to 
move the Homepage to the source paragraph.

thanks in advance,
