 From your comment "(the deb file validator is giving the wrong  
advice since I added what it told me to)" _ I assume
you do have fink  (>= 0.27.99) installed _ else it couldn't have told  
you..
In that case I do remember some trouble of this sort (cf eg  
octave.info); validation of those fields might be rather
sensitive to spaces and the like (spaces in the beginning of the line  
a problem ?).
But as coded e.g. in octave.info it does pass validation with fink   
(>= 0.27.99)

Cheers !
