Hi! From the way you write you seem to want to work more on similar bugs and I want to point out to you some mistakes in your patch:

This is a corner-case: It's an actual email-header so someone who has "set edit_headers" might think about c&p that to an email. Hope this helps your understanding of the problem. Escaping of a hyphen is only there needed where it actually _is_ meant to be a literal dash, like in commandline and configuration options. Same goes btw. for quotes, though lintian doesn't check for those because it's almost impossible to be sure wether a quote is meant to be around an example or rather being part of the example. Hope that helps your understanding. :) Rhonda -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [email protected]
