Title:
  inconsistent-maintainer error not applicable to Ubuntu

Status in lintian package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  Building a package in focal now gives me the following lintian error:

  E: ppp changes: inconsistent-maintainer Marc Deslauriers
  <marc.deslauriers at ubuntu.com> (changes vs. source) Ubuntu Developers
  <ubuntu-devel-discuss at lists.ubuntu.com>

  This should not be an error in Ubuntu as the maintainer field is
  handled differently:
