That is... not really a constructive attitude. If nothing else, please
at least carry a local patch instead of not updating -- pkglint has
been getting improved lately (for a change) and with any luck this
will continue.

(Also, what's the difference? As far as I can tell, when you run
pkglint it just spews notices at you, and while some of them are
tagged "error", any further consequences are up to the operator...)
