Package: dpkg-dev Version: 1.19.7 Severity: normal File: /usr/share/man/man5/deb-control.5.gz
The deb-control manpage seemed like the right place to look to find out if Debian control files can have trailing commas in comma-separated fields (such as Depends). However, it didn't mention whether this was allowed. (I'm hoping that it is, as that would improve the quality of diffs.) -- Package-specific info: -- System Information: Debian Release: bullseye/sid APT prefers unstable-debug APT policy: (500, 'unstable-debug'), (500, 'unstable'), (1, 'experimental-debug'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 5.5.0-1-amd64 (SMP w/4 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=C.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=C.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8), LANGUAGE=C.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) Versions of packages dpkg-dev depends on: ii binutils 2.34-6 ii bzip2 1.0.8-2 ii libdpkg-perl 1.19.7 ii make 4.2.1-1.2 ii patch 2.7.6-6 ii perl 5.30.0-10 ii tar 1.30+dfsg-7 ii xz-utils 5.2.4-1+b1 Versions of packages dpkg-dev recommends: ii build-essential 12.8 ii clang-10 [c-compiler] 1:10.0.0-4 ii fakeroot 1.24-1 ii gcc [c-compiler] 4:9.2.1-3.1 ii gcc-9 [c-compiler] 9.3.0-10 ii gnupg 2.2.20-1 ii gpgv 2.2.20-1 pn libalgorithm-merge-perl <none> Versions of packages dpkg-dev suggests: pn debian-keyring <none> -- no debconf information
