Package: deborphan
Version: 1.7.25
Severity: grave

Installing a package which control file contains "Standards-Version:" or
any other field that begins with "St" causes deborphan to think this
line would be the "Status:" line.

This parsing hack, which exists since many years, improves the
performance of deborphan, but in combination with the abortion if the
status line is not in a proper state it renders the package unusable in
many cases.

One package which has such a control file is the unofficial F-PROT
Antivirus Free Version.
