that you can find time to take another look at this issue.
The blocking issue for us (D-I team) at this point for switching from
XC-Package-Type: udeb to Package-Type: udeb is that it increases the size of

There's 278 udebs in the current main Packages file. Each Package-Type
field takes 19 bytes, so 5282 bytes of bloat. In comparison the
Description field takes 49416 bytes. If you are really concerned about
bloat, maybe you could trim those down instead.

Note that doing so now would _add_ the Package-Type header in control files,
which I do not think is desired.

The actual problem seems to be that XC-Package-Type is not included in %f.
Maybe because of the XC- prefix?
From a debugging session:
%f = (
'Architecture' = 'all'
'Depends' = 'cdebconf-udeb, di-utils (= 1.18)'
'Description' = 'Execute a shell'
'Installer-Menu-Item' = 95000

It's not included and has never been, because only the ones with B are.
But now it's explicit given that dpkg-gencontrol supports the
field. Package-Type should have been XB- from the beginning. That
information is pertinent to the binary package and not to the changes
