Package: lintian
Version: 2.115.3

I heard you like spell-checking, so I ran your spell-checker on your 
spell-checker:

    $ grep '^[^#]' /usr/share/lintian/data/spelling/corrections | cut -d '|' -f3 | sort -u | spellintian | grep -vF '(duplicate word)'
    ocurrence -> occurrence
    ocurrences -> occurrences
    prefered -> preferred
    transfered -> transferred
    transfering -> transferring

(Maybe worth adding something like the above to the test suite?)
