+Tag: source-contains-prebuilt-windows-binary
+Severity: warning
+Check: files/source-missing
+Explanation: The source tarball contains a prebuilt binary for Microsoft Windows.
+ They are usually provided for the convenience of users. These files
+ usually just take up space in the tarball.
+ .
+ However, they may be a DFSG violation in that the corresponding source
+ and build system are not available.
+ .
+ Check if upstream also provides source-only tarballs that you can use as
+ the upstream distribution instead. If not, you may want to ask upstream
+ to provide source-only tarballs.
