partimage suffers from this, because the line between two of its paragraphs contains a single space rather than being zero-length; lintian's check currently requires a zero-length line. Since parsecdata() in /usr/lib/dpkg/controllib.pl strips off trailing spaces before splitting paragraphs, I've changed lintian to do the same. -- Colin Watson [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
