Package: lintian
Version: 2.117.0
Severity: normal
X-Debbugs-Cc: nbehrnd@yahoo.com

Dear Maintainers,

in preparation of an update of ruby-mdl to adhere the recently published Debian Policy (version 4.7.0), while checking my local `ruby- mdl_0.13.0-5_amd64.changes` file prior to the subsequent upload, I observe the checker considers version 4.6.2 as the most recent one.

For the particular package, the warning issued is not relevant; but for those providing e.g., binaries the picture might differ.[1] It were desireable if an update of the checker can consider the changes.

Thank you
