Package: lintian-brush
Version: 0.145
Severity: normal

To reproduce:

gbp clone https://salsa.debian.org/games-team/steam-installer.git
cd steam-installer
git reset --hard debian/1%1.0.0.75+ds-1
lintian-brush

This version contains, among other things:

    Package: steam
    Section: contrib/oldlibs
    Description: Transitional package for Steam

Expected result:

The 'steam' transitional package stays in contrib/oldlibs, or if it
had been in a different section of a non-default archive area such as
contrib/games, lintian-brush would propose moving it to contrib/oldlibs.

Actual result:

lintian-brush proposes moving this transitional package from
contrib/oldlibs to oldlibs (i.e. main), which would be a Policy violation
because it has a non-main dependency.
