--- Begin Message ---Package: lintian Severity: wishlist Hi, Vcswatch(*) is nice but it detects failure _after_ uploaded packages to repository. I hope if lintian could have same feature like below one. "Error: The Vcs URL git://git.debian.org/pkg-nlp-ja/mecab-naist-jdic.git is deprecated/defunct, git://anonscm.debian.org/pkg-nlp-ja/mecab-naist-jdic.git was tried instead. Please update the Vcs field in debian/control." Just checking Vcs-Git field and warn for using "git.debian.org" (and maybe svn.debian.org for Vcs-Svn as well). *) https://qa.debian.org/cgi-bin/vcswatch -- Regards, Hideki Yamane henrich @ debian.or.jp/org http://wiki.debian.org/HidekiYamane

Even if we wanted to permit accessing the internet (!) it would be a non-determinstic test as — of course — the internet can up or down & the idea of tests that are sometimes there and sometimes not.
