> 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)
