Next link: http://www.debian.org/doc/debian-policy/ch-binary.html#s-descriptions *** Every Debian package ***must have an extended description*** stored in the appropriate field of the control record. The technical information about the format of the Description field is in Description, Section 5.6.13. The description ***should describe the package*** (the program)... *** Empty description has not describe the package. IMHO its violate the policy. -- Regards, Yuri Kozlov -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
