No. I would also recommend that we reconsider doing this via lintian atm. While dh_missing is included in the sequence (in all compat levels), it is a noop (also in all compat levels) unless you specifically enable it. Technically, I suspect that dh_missing can use some more testing "in the field" before we start recommending it for archive-wide adoption like this. Finally, I would like to enable it via a compat level (probably compat 12) rather than have everybody sprinkle 3 lines of magical boilerplate code in their rules file. Especially since dh_missing is always a no-op for some specific cases. (FTR, I love the idea of getting extra quality checks in debhelper enabled by default. I just do not want to roll them out too early and preferably they should be as "simple" as possible for the consumers) Thanks, ~Niels
