I see no indication in Debian Policy that comments are permitted in control files. I'm happy to change Policy and then the lintian check if they truly are, but I'd need confirmation from everything significant that parses control files (which is more than just dpkg-buildpackage). My guess is that software is currently recognizing those as valid but unknown control fields. -- Russ Allbery ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) <http://www.eyrie.org/~eagle/> -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
