Dear All,

As the subject goes, the below checks specific to the ARB are
implemented in latest lintian package uploaded to the app review
contributors PPA (which will be built shortly)

    - Check if the app runs out of /opt.
    - Check for python-runtime.d file.
    - Check for apport-crashdb-conf file.
    - Check for -extras prefix in lenses.
    - Check for -extras prefix in .desktop files.
    - Check for multiple changelog entries.
    - Check for conflicts, replaces and breaks field in d/control.


All are welcome to test the same out once the package builds in the
PPA and provide feedback.

Special Regards and Thanks to Niels Thykier for his everlasting
patience, reviewing code and answering my numerous doubts on lintian
:)

Wishing all a Happy new year ahead!

Regards,
