new test: sgml file placement



Package: lintian
Version: 1.20.8
Severity: wishlist

Note that as of new sgml-base's, /usr/lib/sgml is deprecated
and /usr/share/sgml is where all SGML related files should go.
It would be nice if lintian emitted a warning for packages 
still installing stuff (perhaps disregarding compatability symlinks)
in /usr/lib/sgml.  

Likewise, install-sgmlcatalog is deprecated.  It's still legit
to use 'install-sgmlcatalog --quiet --remove' to remove the old
deprecated catalog entries, however.

Also note that packages using /usr/share/sgml and the new
update-catalog need a versioned depends on sgml-base 1.0.7 or
better.
