The Lintian on tracker.debian.org complains that 4.7.0 is newer-standards-version.

Can you please upgrade it to the latest version?

Thanks!

Hi,

I think that tracker.d.o gets its lintian information from UDD (so the
data is the same as one available from
https://udd.debian.org/lintian/?email1=martin-eric.racine%40iki.fi&email2=&email3=&packages=&ignpackages=&format=html<_error=on<_warning=on&lintian_tag=#all
)

As you can see in the footer of that page, UDD runs lintian 2.117.0.
That's the latest lintian version.

So the real problem is that the lintian version in the archive doesn't
know about the debian-policy version in the archive...

Noted. This really needs to become a streamlined process i.e. whenever
a new policy is published, debian-policy and lintian get pushed into
Unstable at the same time, and Lintian immediately updated on all
applicable hosts. Otherwise, Lintian generates false positives on
newer-standards-version and also misses new things it should check to
match compliance with the new standard, all of which needlessly
complicates package maintainers' job.
