Package: libconfig-model-dpkg-perl
Version: 2.100
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

while preparing a mass-commit removal of inactive pkg-perl
members from Uploaders, I found an issue reformatting
debian/control in libmoosex-types-iso8601-perl:

    $ cme modify dpkg-control -save
    cme: using Dpkg::Control model
    Reading package lists... Done
    Building dependency tree       
    Reading state information... Done
    Warning in 'source Standards-Version' value '3.9.6': Current standards 
version is '4.1.1'. Please read 
file:///usr/share/doc/debian-policy/upgrading-checklist.txt.gz to check what 
changes need to applied to your package to upgrade it from standard version 
'3.9.6' to '4.1.1'.
    
    Configuration item 'binary:"libmoosex-types-iso8601-perl" Synopsis' has a 
wrong value:
        Undefined mandatory value.
    $ echo $?
    2

If I remove the comments in debian/control, then it ends without
failing.

On the other side, if I run cme remove-uploader script then one
of the comments is moved to the end of the stanza while the other
stays where it was, resulting in comments that make no sense
because they should stick together.

I guess that dealing with comments in deb822 format is difficult
if you reorder the fields, thus I'm wondering if there's a way
to reformat debian/control without altering the ordering, just
reformatting the values.

Thanks for your work!
Alex
