Lintian tag: no-versioned-debhelper-prerequisite

Type: warning

Description (from lintian-explain-tags)

The package either doesn't declare a versioned build dependency on
debhelper or does not declare a versioned build dependency on a new enough
version of debhelper to satisfy the declared compatibility level.

The required version of debhelper is not guaranteed to be satisfied in all
supported releases of Debian and therefore this may lead to a build
failure.

The recommended practice is to always declare an explicit versioned
dependency on debhelper equal to or greater than the compatibility level
used by the package, even if the versioned dependency isn't strictly
necessary. Having a versioned dependency also helps with backports to
older releases and correct builds on partially updated systems.

Packages not using an experimental or beta compatibility level may
alternatively Build-Depend on the debhelper-compat virtual package, for
example:

Build-Depends: debhelper-compat (= 13)

Note if you are using a compat level marked as experimental (such as
compat 12 in debhelper 11.4~) please explicitly override this tag.
