Package: dpkg-dev Version: 1.9.20 Severity: normal Appendix C in the Debian Policy Manual tells us:
C.2.2. `debian/control' ----------------------- This file contains version-independent details about the source package and about the binary packages it creates. It is a series of sets of control fields, each syntactically similar to a binary package control file. The sets are separated by one or more blank lines. The first set is information about the source package in general; each subsequent set describes one binary package that the source tree builds. However, putting more than one blank lines between sets will cause the following error in dpkg-gencontrol: dpkg-gencontrol: error: per-package paragraph 1 in control info file is missing Package line I was pointed out on debian-mentors that this bug was reported as bug #56056 previously, patched and closed. It looks like it came back. I don't know if the patch still applies, though. -- System Information Debian Release: 3.0 Architecture: i386 Kernel: Linux orion 2.2.20 #1 Sun Nov 4 15:44:23 EST 2001 i686 Locale: [EMAIL PROTECTED], [EMAIL PROTECTED] Versions of packages dpkg-dev depends on: ii binutils 2.12.90.0.1-1 The GNU assembler, linker and bina ii cpio 2.4.2-39 GNU cpio -- a program to manage ar ii make 3.79.1-13 The GNU version of the "make" util ii patch 2.5.4-10 Apply a diff file to an original ii perl [perl5] 5.6.1-7 Larry Wall's Practical Extraction ii perl-modules 5.6.1-7 Core Perl modules. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
