That's fine; it's actually a problem in all of the debbugs versions, though. > so that the problem can be more easily reproduced/seen, attached is a > minimal Perl script that shows this problem. > > $ ./545895.pl > $VAR1 = "gstreamer0.10-plugins-good: 0.10.8-4.1 unistallable due to .mo \r"; Right, this is actually an issue in scripts/process; the real fix for it is going to be stuck behind me refactoring process entirely, but I'll whip up a quick fix for it temporarily. \r or \n should never be in the Subject: field of summary, so the BTS should never have to bother with them; it also should be folding multi-line subjects too, which it isn't doing properly. There are about 40 or so unarchived bugs with this issue; I'll try to go through and fix them all sometime in the near future.
