---------------------------------------

             Summary: debian description can't have the following set of 
characters ${VAR}
                 Key: BIGTOP-558
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/BIGTOP-558
             Project: Bigtop
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Debian
    Affects Versions: 0.4.0
            Reporter: Roman Shaposhnik
            Assignee: Roman Shaposhnik
             Fix For: 0.4.0


Amazingly enough (at least according to my interpretation of 
http://www.debian.org/doc/debian-policy/ch-source.html#s-substvars) it is 
completely impossible to have the following 6 characters in Deb's package 
description:
{noformat}
 ${VAR}
{noformat}

Oozie is one package that wants it. At this point my only recourse is to change 
it into something else (even though it will be slightly less useful as far as 
Oozie is concerned)
