If the problem is that .DS_store is in the upstream repository and
linitian subsequently complains about it, I think it's reasonable to

  1.  inform upstream about it and ask them to remove the file(s)
      from their repo;

  2a. ignore lintian for now;

  2b. or write a linitian-ignore rule that you don't forget to
      remove when upstream has the fix;

  3.  ensure through postinst that no such file is left on the
      systems after the install.
