Package: dpkg
Version: 1.14.14
Severity: important

When trying to list all obsolete init.d scripts that are conffiles, I
ran into a problem with the output from dpkg-query.  The reason is
that there is no newline between the list of files between different
packages.

Here is an example to demonstrate the problem:

  minerva:/# dpkg-query -W -f='${Conffiles}' | grep /etc/init.d/init.d |grep 
obsolete|head -2
   /etc/init.d/loadcpufreq 5cf8c5572d789beaf18d79fc52f95665 obsolete
   /etc/fonts/conf.d/unhinted.conf 4070b0651a9e3e0d26a77d6cc6f7e575 obsolete 
/etc/init.d/fuse 0a6a4540ffd72926dbb9f12d9f1ad31d
  minerva:/#

Notice how there is no newline between 'obsolete' and
'/etc/init.d/fuse'.

Please change the output from dpkg-query to add a newline between
entries for different packages.

Happy hacking,
