Package: python-debian Version: 0.1.21+nmu2 Hello,
while debugging an autopkgtest bug[1] I noticed that python-debian's
parsing of paragraphs ignores everything after a line comment. Simple
reproducer:
$ echo -e 'Build-Depends: foo,\n#comment\n bar' | python -c 'import sys,
debian.deb822; l = [p for p in
debian.deb822.Deb822.iter_paragraphs(sys.stdin)]; print(l)'
[{'Build-Depends': u'foo,'}]
This parses
---------
Build-Depends: foo,
#comment
bar
---------
but "bar" doesn't appear in the result. E. g. lintian has that in its
debian/control file.
Thanks for considering,
Martin
