+Tag: unnecessary-source-date-epoch-assignment
+Severity: info
+Check: debian/rules
+Explanation: There is an assignment to a <code>SOURCE&lowbar;DATE&lowbar;EPOCH</code> variable in the
+ <code>debian/rules</code> file.
+ .
+ As of dpkg 1.18.8, this is no longer necessary as dpkg exports this
+ variable if it is not already set. However, you can also include
+ <code>/usr/share/dpkg/pkg-info.mk</code> or <code>/usr/share/dpkg/default.mk</code>
+ to ensure it is exported.
