Bug#1017443: warning/error if changelog date too far in the past



Package: lintian
Version: 2.115.2
Severity: wishlist

Hi,

please consider implementing a lintian warning / error if the changelog
date is in the past more than a few days. This avoids accidental uploads
with forgotten dch --release.

This is not as easy as it sounds, since lintian is used as well on
packages that have not been freshly built. I understand if you come to
the conclusion that this is impossible to implement in Lintian.

Greetings
Marc
