Hi,

I recently split a dh-dkms package from the dkms binary package.
Please update lintian's suggestions for the respective B-D:

for 'dh --with dkms', there should be a B-D: dh-dkms (instead of
B-D: dkms)

for 'dh_dkms', there should be a B-D: dh-dkms (instead of B-D: dkms)
or (preferably) B-D: dh-sequence-dkms (lintian already knows about that).

And the I'd like to have all *-dkms binary packages to have
  Testsuite: autopkgtest-pkg-dkms
on their source package. Not sure how to model that in lintian.
Either on the source package: B-D: dh-dkms | B-D: dh-sequence-dkms
or on the binary package relationships: Depends: dkms
or on the binary package content: /usr/src/*/dkms.conf

Andreas
