Hi Mathieu,
first of all, thanks for working on that.
I am not a lintian developer, but I am the one of the first person to
have noticed the problem, I'll add some comments and questions below.
I think a variant of this should really go in before the next stable
debian release.
Thanks,
Antonio

Describe better the issue in the short commit message, like for
instance:
"Error when a package has a php script but does not depend on php-cli"
This is what Ondřej Surý thinks lintian should do.
And maybe add some more details in the long commit message, something
like
"Furthermore, when adding the missing dependency packages must not
depend on phpX-cli but rather on php-cli"
And maybe add a link to this bug report number.

Shouldn't this become "php-script-but-no-php-cli-dep" ?

Does this actually _forbid_ php7.0-cli dependencies?
I am asking because I don't know the meaning of the fields in this file.

What does this test do? Can we skip it if we do not want to allow
phpX-cli dependencies?

php-script-but-no-php-cli-dep
I mean, it should not mention phpX-cli anymore, but just php-cli.
And we should not allow php7.0-cli deps.
