Reviewing the lintian4python run of the DPMT/PAPT packages at http://people.debian.org/~jwilk/tmp/lintian4python-20120317.log I notices a lot of python-module-but-no-python-depends errors listed for docs packages.

Right, all of these are likely false positives:

e: flufl.bounce source: python-module-but-no-python-depends 
python-flufl.bounce-docs
e: flufl.enum source: python-module-but-no-python-depends python-flufl.enum-docs
e: flufl.i18n source: python-module-but-no-python-depends python-flufl.i18n-docs
e: flufl.lock source: python-module-but-no-python-depends python-flufl.lock-docs
e: flufl.password source: python-module-but-no-python-depends 
python-flufl.password-docs
e: psycopg2 source: python-module-but-no-python-depends python-psycopg2-docs
e: pymilter source: python-module-but-no-python-depends python-milter-docs

I think -docs packages should be excluded from the check.

I already exclude packages ending with -dev, -dbg or -doc for this tag. I could exclude -docs too, or maybe exclude everything from section docs.

I wonder however why these packages use such unusual naming scheme:

$ zcat Packages.gz | grep-dctrl -F Package -e '^.*-doc$' -ns Package | wc -l
2415

$ zcat Packages.gz | grep-dctrl -F Package -e '^.*-docs$' -ns Package | wc -l
42
