Bug Description

It would be useful to have (non-fatal) lintian running after building, as the build logs would potentially serve as a reference for pointing out issues with a given package. (For example, the nss-has-executable-stack issue could have been seen more clearly, and we could scan build logs for common mistakes.)

Yes indeed, running lintian just before publishing the package binaries could be useful. So could the buildds have this as their last step, to run ilntian.
