Package: lintian Version: 2.3.0 Severity: wishlist Dear lintian maintainers, I would like to suggest a lintian test, which checks if any versioned build dependencies exist where the versions are lower than the version in oldstable.
While this is technically not a problem, it's cruft which lintian could detect.
