Bug#820441: lintian: outdated-autotools-helper-file: accept recent versions of debhelper



Package: lintian
Version: 2.5.43
Severity: normal
Tags: patch

Hi,

Thanks a LOT for maintaining this wonderful development/QA tool!

What do you think about the attached patch that removes a false positive about
outdated config.{guess,sub} files that will actually be replaced by recent
versions of debhelper (9.20160114 and later)?

G'luck,
Peter
