Package: disktype Severity: minor Tags: patch Hi!
As you can see in the Debian package page here: https://packages.debian.org/en/sid/disktype there are some dots showing at the end of each list. I think they were meant to be separating paragraphs. Please note that, as for Debian Policy [1] the "dot" works to divide paragraphs (it creates an empty line) only if it is preceded by a single space and there is no other character after it. In your case those dots are preceded by more than one space and they are shown verbatim in the description. Moreover they are unnecessary since they are inside a "verbatim" section. I suggest that you remove from the description those 6 lines with a dot (at the end of the first 6 lists) completely and you will get exactly the same formatting but without those lines with a dot showing. I attach a patch that does just that (or so I think); please let me know if I need to change its format. Thanks, beatrice
