Citing from then #debian-ftp channel:

04:17:49 < raphael> dear ftp-masters, could you please make sure that NEW
      packages do _build_ the .swf files during the build process if they
      ship any? TIA
04:21:14 < Ganneff> would there be an easy way to check it?
04:24:59 < raphael> if they b-depend on haxe, mtasc, or swftools (if it
      gets uploaded again) they probably do
04:25:43 < dondelelcaro> probably can be a lintian check

So there seems to be three tools available.


Best Regards,
  Alexander
