RTFM: http://www.de.debian.org/doc/debian-policy/ch-controlfields.html#s-f-Description especially: The lines in the extended description can have these formats: [...] * Those starting with two or more spaces. These will be displayed verbatim. If the display cannot be panned horizontally, the displaying program will linewrap them "hard" (i.e., without taking account of word breaks). If it can they will be allowed to trail off to the right. None, one or two initial spaces may be deleted, but the number of spaces deleted from each line will be the same (so that you can have indenting work correctly, for example).
