Do Dpkg::Control::Hash provide the equivalent of flags discardCase and singleBlock for Parse::DebControl, or are those considered unimportant? As I recall, Copyright Format 1.0 is enabled by its identifying Format: line being the first line of the file, and my proposal is for Files-Excluded lines to be in that same section (and only there). Also, I seem to recall during the development of the format that it should be ok to add non-machine-readable chunks _after_ the machine-readable parts. That's why I found it quite compelling to me that those two flags existed in Parse::DebControl: You don't accidentally (although arguably quite rare) pickup unintended hints further down the file. - Jonas -- * Jonas Smedegaard - idealist & Internet-arkitekt * Tlf.: +45 40843136 Website: http://dr.jones.dk/ [x] quote me freely [ ] ask before reusing [ ] keep private
