Package: dpkg
Severity: normal
X-Debbugs-Cc: debian-lint-maint@lists.debian
Control: affects -1 + src:lintian
Version: 1.23.5

Hi Guillem,

While trying to fix tests for lintian, I noticed that specifying the email as "username@localhost"
in Uploaders field does not cause the build to choke.

That means that dpkg is accepting malformed address here, as it should check also if TLD is present
or not.
