+Tag: package-does-not-install-examples
+Severity: pedantic
+Check: examples
+Explanation: The original source tarball contains the specified examples
+ directory. However, no examples are installed in any binary packages.
+ .
+ Please use <code>dh&lowbar;installexamples</code> to install these to the most
+ relevant package, for example by adding the directory name followed
+ by a wildcard to a <code>debian/pkgname.examples</code> file.
+ .
+ Lintian looks for any directory called <code>examples</code> under
+ <code>/usr/share/doc</code> in all binary packages.

+Advocates: Scott Kitterman <debian@kitterman.com>
+Reason:
+ Some sources like python-tomlkit trigger this tag for tests because of files
+ in ./tests/examples/. They are not examples for tomlkit, however. They are
+ examples of TOML files used in the tests.
+ .
+ Overall, the check is probably better off not looking in test directories.
