Package: lintian
Version: 2.3.4
Severity: normal

Lintian complains that my init scripts do not test whether
/etc/default/wide-dhcpv6-* are available.  Actually, they do but the lintian
test is too simple to catch that:

--- 8< ---
if [ ! -f /etc/default/wide-dhcpv6-relay ]; then
        log_failure_msg \
            "/etc/default/wide-dhcpv6-relay does not exist! - Aborting..."
        log_failure_msg \
            "Run 'dpkg-reconfigure wide-dhcpv6-relay' to solve the problem."
        exit 1
else
        . /etc/default/wide-dhcpv6-relay
fi
--- 8< ---

It would be nice if this test could be a little smarter since its severity is
serious.

Cheers,
