Package: dpkg
Version: 1.20.11
Severity: normal

I had a filesystem corruption (had to run e2fsck -D for some reason, the
filesystem was otherwise intact, fresh install) that resulted in…

dpkg: unrecoverable fatal error, aborting:
 files list file for package 'libv4l-0:amd64' is missing final newline

… during an apt-get --purge dist-upgrade (which only updated firefox
and linux) or rather preventing it.

This was not spotted by dpkg --audit, which I had run after the fsck.
It probably can easily be added there?
