Good idea. Anyone coming up with a patch (I could risk doing that but my perl-fu is somehow limited)? I bet Russ will include this in lintian if we provide a patch. We however need to also provide an explanation that lintian will give when people meet this condition. In short, we need to explain maintainers what should be done: - either contact the person listed in Last-Translator and suggest him|her to provide a "better" Language-Team field - replace Language-Team with the releavant Debian language team: this should be done only for debian/po/*.po *not* for upstream translations...and this is anyway not the best suggestion for maintainers to fiddle with this - empty the field (probably the best solution, imho)
