Did you see the date ? 1997 ! I suggest you don't loose time to write a lintian test for checking a bug that used to be frequent 5 years ago ... *Nobody* is going to use a dpkg that doesn't handle epochs. Epochs have been implemented since may 1996 ... in 1997 it could happen to use a dpkg of more than a year old, but now 4 releases later and 5 years later, nobody is using a dpkg << 1.2.0.
