Package: lintian
Version: 2.5.52
Severity: normal

A recent build of libdolfin2017.1 (i.e. dolfin 2017.1.0-1 in main)
accidentally resulted in a dependency on a non-free package,
libparmetis4.0. Consequently the new package was rejected by
ftp-masters.

It would be a useful service if lintian could catch that kind of error.
