 Hi!

 Bug #794688 reported by you has been fixed in the Git repository. You can
 see the changelog below, and you can check the diff of the fix at:

 https://anonscm.debian.org/cgit/dpkg/dpkg.git/diff/?id=629f067

The help text could still use a little improvement, I think.  Since the
--predep-package prints a single package, using plural is not really
correct, I think.  How about this change?

Actually, given #539133, I think I'll change the man page instead to
state that the option might print more than one package, for the time
the code is fixed, so that there are no surprises for its users.

Thanks,
Guillem
