Lintian tag information: debian-rules-contains-unnecessary-get-orig-source-target (type: information)

Description (from lintian-explain-tags)

This package's debian/rules file contains a get-orig-source target that
appears to be unnecessary. For example, the package might simply contain a
single call to uscan(1).

Such calls are not ideal; maintainers should be able to call uscan with
their own choice of options and they additionally encourage the
proliferation of boilerplate code across the archive.

Since Debian Policy 4.1.4, packages are encouraged to migrate to uscan and
a Files-Excluded header in the debian/copyright file.

Please refer to the uscan(1) manual page for details.
