Package: debian-policy
Version: 4.1.3.0
Severity: important

Hi,

There are several scripts, containing [#], are not valid shell scripts,
which are located in the following chapters:

§ 6.8
§ 9.1.2
§ 9.3.3.1
§ 10.9.1

The common problems are that three characters before ] are truncated,
and replaced by [#], probably due to the conversion script.

I am setting the severity to important because maintainers may just copy
and paste the script from Debian Policy, doubting if that's actually
valid.
