Unfortunately, Lintian cannot tell from an installation package
(*.deb) whether it was built from a native source package. Possible
solutions are:

1. Via policy, prescribe a constant basename for Debian changelogs,
regardless of "nativeness".
2. In installation packages, add information about nativeness to the
control files in DEBIAN/.

Kind regards
Felix Lechner
