Lintian tag: package-does-not-use-debhelper-or-cdbs

Type: pedantic

Description (from lintian-explain-tags)

This package does not appear to use a build system helper such as
debhelper or cdbs.

It is recommended that packages use such tools as they avoid a large
number of common errors and tedious boilerplate as well as permit
distribution-wide changes to packages and reduce the "bus factor" &
barriers to entry from external contributors.

Please refer to the debhelper(7) manual page, the dh(1) manual page, and
https://build-common.alioth.debian.org/ for details.
