Package: lintian Version: 2.121.1+nmu1 Severity: normal X-Debbugs-Cc: martin-eric.rac...@iki.fi
The newer-standards-version tends to be printed by mistake, usually because someone upgraded their packaging according to the latest debian-policy before a new Lintian got uploaded to the repository. What Lintian should instead do is source the current Standards live from Masters, and only issue the warning if the declared version is newer than that. src:routine-update already has the code to perform this.
