+             The dependency on the package containing the copyright
+             information and distribution license must be strong
+             (<tt>Depends</tt> or <tt>Pre-Depends</tt>).  This dependency
+             may be indirect through other packages (for example,
+             packages A and B may have symlinks pointing to package C
+             with A depending on B and B depending on C), but only if all
+             packages involved in the dependency chain are built from the
+             same source package.

I think this point rather belongs in 12.3 ("Additional documentation").

-         You should not use the copyright file as a general <file>README</file>
-         file.  If your package has such a file it should be
-         installed in <file>/usr/share/doc/<var>package</var>/README</file> or
-         <file>README.Debian</file> or some other appropriate place.</p>
+         You should not use the copyright file as a general
+         <file>README</file> file.  If your package has such a file it
+         should be installed in
+         <file>/usr/share/doc/<var>package</var>/README</file> or
+         <file>README.Debian</file> or some other appropriate place.
+       </p>

This hunk is a whitespace-only change; could be please avoid such changes?
