Package: acerhkgui
Version: latest (squeeze, 2011-10-25)

Hi,

When I tried "apt-get dist-upgrade" today, dpkg was reporting some errors like 
"blank line in value of field 'Description' in var/lib/dpkg/status package 
`acerhkgui`"I'm not sure if the message was exactly written as I wrote it, 
because I couldn't finish the upgrade process (and thus couldn't install 
"reportbug" to submit the bug regularly), so I'm sorry about that.

However, I solved the bug by editting 2 files /var/lib/dpkg/status and 
/var/lib/dpkg/available, first finding the package "acerhkgui", then correcting 
its "Description" field which was like:

aaaaaaaaa
bbbbbbbbb

cccccccccc
dddddddd

eeeeeeee

and should be like this:

aaaaaaaaa
bbbbbbbbb
.
cccccccccc
dddddddd
.
eeeeeeee

Anyway, it was an easy fix, but I thought it would be nice to report that 
little bug :)

Cheers :)
