Package: lintian
Version: 2.5.103

Dear lintian maintainers,

According to the policy [1], the Source fields should be used:
"""If the upstream source has been modified to remove non-free parts,
that should be explained in this field."""

That is what I do in the lazarus package. However, lintian complains
with the missing-explanation-for-repacked-upstream-tarball tag, because
it isn't in the Comments or Files-Excluded field.

Paul
