Gah! This is apt_pkg's fault: it strips off the leading '\n'. This means our goal of having the output match the input will in general be broken when you use apt_pkg. (Right now, the only place that's used by default is when you use iter_paragraphs.) A temporary workaround is to pass use_apt_pkg=False to the iter_paragraphs method. On large files, you'll probably notice a bit of a performance hit. I'll see what we can do to preserve this information with apt_pkg. -- John Wright <j...@debian.org> -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
