+Subject: [PATCH] lint: Reset all checks for each package
+
+Some check classes keep state during checking and this cause problems
+when checking several files with the same call.
+
+This patch resets all the checks for each package to check. This is a
+quick solution, maybe the best way to handle this is to reset the state
+for each check in with a common method in the AbstractCheck, a common
+way to handle and reset the state to avoid this problem in the future.
+
+Fix https://github.com/rpm-software-management/rpmlint/issues/1161
