[Bug 782308] Re: Lintian should warn about if there is a -XubuntuY without a corresponding Debian entry

[lamby]

Is this still a useful report? If so, please could you file it in the
Debian (aka "upstream") bug tracker? :)

Title:
  Lintian should warn about if there is a -XubuntuY without a
  corresponding Debian entry

Status in lintian package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: lintian

  Lintian should warn on a source upload if there's a -XubuntuY version
  without a corresponding -X Debian version in the changelog.  This
  should catch cases where people mean to use -0ubuntuX.  This should be
  a warning only as we have some cases where Ubuntu has an epoch bump
  and this isn't possible.  I think this warning should also function
  with native Debian packages as well.
