I think this needs further discussion, then. Quite obviously, the current setup goes against the expectations of many users. I routinely run lintian from within pbuilder and that switch isn't set (and I wonder if it should). Looks a lot like an Ubuntuism to me. I don't understand why lintian on Ubuntu complains and should continue to complain about the unstable release pocket. Please explain if there are valid reasons this must be so.
