Package: libdebian-installer
Version: 0.69

When using cdebootstrap to provide the rootfs at Mamona (an
OpenEmbedded-based distribution), cdebootstrap failed giving the
following message:
W: parser_rfc822: Iek! Don't find end of value!
E: Internal error: download

After looking at the libdebian-installer code, I found that the
problem is related with the READSIZE variable, as I got a package that
had more than 16384 characters at the recommends field.

I know that this is quite a huge line, but at OE we have quite many
packages that are split in a lot of different packages.

Applying the following patch fixed my problem:

[PATCH] parser_rfc822.c: doubling the READSIZE to support using it
with OpenEmbedded
