More likely, lintian was updated and some tests are too pedantic to handle 
well the new value of standard-version. I've updated the tests, not by 
increasing the standard-version values set in the test fixtures (aka the 
debian/control files used by the tests), but by changing the tests to expect a 
warning about standard-version. This way the tests won't break at the next 
policy update.

This is another error where UTF-8 data was not handled properly with YAML::XS. 
This is fixed in libconfig-model-backend-yaml-perl 2.133. I've not updated the 
versioned dependency on libconfig-model-dpkg-perl because libconfig-model-
backend-yaml-perl is only in unstable at version 2.133.

Thanks for the report.

All the best
