Package: dpkg
Version: 1.14.24
Severity: wishlist
The format of dpkg's /var/lib/dpkg/status is similar to format that
Packages uses, with one change: 'Status:' line just after 'Package:'
line. However, there is an exception from this rule: when package version
has 'Essential: yes' line, it's written before the 'Status' line.
My wish is remove this exception and put 'Essential: yes' line after
'Status:' line as dpkg does for all other package entry lines.
