(or is a newer spec available?) Yes, I think that's how you should interpret it. Actually, what I'd do is unfold the contents first, and then parse it. That's more consistent with the way that fields in Debian control files are specified. (In other words, I think this field is a whitespace-separated list per the definition in copyright-format 1.0, but it's sort of akin to a folded field in Debian Policy. Unfortunately, not exactly, since whitespace *is* significant if it's escaped.) That means that my suggestion is slightly wrong, and the places where it has [ ] for a space should actually be \s for any whitespace. -- Russ Allbery (r...@debian.org) <http://www.eyrie.org/~eagle/> -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
