Package: lintian Version: 2.5.21 Severity: wishlist It would be super nice if lintian could somehow detect 'Recommends' pointing outside main:
Policy 2.2.1 states: > In addition, the packages in main > > must not require or recommend a package outside of main for > compilation or execution (thus, the package must not declare a "Pre- > Depends", "Depends", "Recommends", "Build-Depends", or "Build- > Depends-Indep" relationship on a non-main package), This was detected by a human: https://bugs.debian.org/820190
