Hi,

I think that tracker.d.o gets its lintian information from UDD (so the
data is the same as one available from
https://udd.debian.org/lintian/?email1=martin-eric.racine%40iki.fi&email2=&email3=&packages=&ignpackages=&format=html&lt_error=on&lt_warning=on&lintian_tag=#all
)

As you can see in the footer of that page, UDD runs lintian 2.117.0.
That's the latest lintian version.

So the real problem is that the lintian version in the archive doesn't
know about the debian-policy version in the archive...
