Hi Dylan,
Thanks for working on improving lintian.
Some remarks about your patch:
* Code-wise the patch seems fine.
* The tag description / help should probably have reference that
explains what the upstream-metadata file is and how to write it.
* Re: tests. Instead of updating all tests, please add a small valid
upstream metadata file in right part of the
t/templates/tests/pedantic directory and use a pre_build hook in
the tests that must not have an upstream metadata file.
- t/tests/upstream-metadata-is-not-a-file/pre_build is probably a
good choice for an example as it seems related.
Thanks,
~Niels
