Hi Daniel,

No, it was me being dense.

I was thinking that because it is somewhat unrealistic for Lintian
to reliably work out where an *installed* XML file came from in the
source tree (dh_install isn't the only way to install files, after
all) then it would be difficult to reverse-map them back and do the
check.

However, this is not required if we simply check all such files.
Implemented in 0324556c2, pending upload.


Best wishes,
