+Tag: invalid-escape-sequence-in-dep5-copyright
+Severity: warning
+Check: debian/copyright/dep5
+See-Also: https://www.debian.org/doc/packaging-manuals/copyright-format/1.0/
+Explanation: The only allowed escape sequences are "\*", "\?" and "\\" (without
+ quotes) to produce a literal star, question mark and backslash, respectively.
+ Without the escaping backslash, the star and question mark take the role of
+ globbing operators similar to shell globs which is why they have to be
+ escaped. No other escapable characters than "*", "?" and "\" exist.
