[Bug 1233911] [NEW] FFe: Please update lintian to version 2.5.19

[Benjamin Drung]

Public bug reported:

lintian 2.5.19 brings a bunch of fixes and a few new tags. It has a big
test suite to avoid regressions. The changes can be found in
debian/changelog (it's a native package) of ubuntu.diff. One patch is
needed to pass all test (see debian.diff). The package builds with that
modification. I successfully installed it and used on a bunch of
packages without detecting an issue.

Upgrading lintian to version 2.5.19 requires updating lintian4python to
version      0.24.4.
