Latest, the warning about quilt patches without any description.
Sure it is nice to have a description, but I don't need lintian to
tell it.
This is severity: minor, certainty: certain, which currently *barely*
makes the W threshold. I think a very good argument could be made
that this is actually severity: wishlist, which would downgrade it to
an I. I'm copying debian-lint-maint to see what the other Lintian
maintainers think.
As I mentioned to Sune on IRC last night, the quilt tag's severity was
copied from the equivalent dpatch tag (which was originally implemented as a
warning and then moved to minor/certain during the transition).
I've no problem with downgrading the severity, although we should make a
corresponding change to the dpatch tag at the same time, unless there's some
reason it's particularly worse for a dpatch to be missing a description.
