The culprit is:

Package: nerolinux
Status: install ok installed
Priority: optional
Section: unknown
Maintainer: Nero AG
Architecture: i386
Version: 2.0.0.4-2
Depends: libc6 (>= 2.2.4-4), libglib1.2 (>= 1.2.0), libgtk1.2 (>= 1.2.10-4), 
xlibs (>= 4.1.0)
Description: NeroLINUX CD/DVD Burning Software
 Copyright: Nero AG
 
 NeroLINUX uses Nero 6.6's embedded API to bring Nero's powerful CD/DVD-writer
 functions to the Linux Desktop.

The line " \n" in the description is wrong, it should read " .\n".
I'm going to implement a workaround in debsecan, even though this
begins to resemble HTML parsing. 8-(

The question is a low-priority debconf question, and it was introduced
in version 0.3.2.  Unless you explicitly ran dpkg-reconfigure, you
shouldn't have seen it before.
