Field values are case-sensitive with only a very small number of exceptions (checksums for files I suspect are case-insensitive, for instance). I don't want to note that separately for each field, but I suppose we could say something along those lines in the general field syntax section. -- Russ Allbery (r...@debian.org) <http://www.eyrie.org/~eagle/> -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-policy-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
