Dear maintainer

$ lintian libupnp22_22.1.8-1_amd64.deb
E: libupnp22: embedded-library libupnp [usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libupnp.so.22.1.8]

libupnp22 is libupnp. The package should not be flagged by the
embedded-library check.

Cheers

PS: libupnp22 is currenty in NEW with an override for this error.
