+Tag: out-of-date-standards-version
+Severity: info
+Check: fields/standards-version
+See-Also: https://www.debian.org/doc/debian-policy/upgrading-checklist.html
+Explanation: The source package refers to a Standards-Version older than the one
+ that was current at the time the package was created (according to the
+ timestamp of the latest <code>debian/changelog</code> entry). Please
+ consider updating the package to current Policy and setting this control
+ field appropriately.
+ .
+ If the package is already compliant with the current standards, you don't
+ have to re-upload the package just to adjust the Standards-Version
+ control field. However, please remember to update this field next time
+ you upload the package.
+ .
+ See <code>/usr/share/doc/debian-policy/upgrading-checklist.txt.gz</code> in
+ the debian-policy package for a summary of changes in newer versions of
+ Policy.
