Thanks Michael,

Yes, I think the "Description" field in the package's information for
lexmark-08z-series-driver is malformatted and is causing the display to
be weird, which is indeed throwing off checkbox's package parser.

I'll mark the bug as Triaged as we now have the output that causes the
parser to error out, and we'd be able to handle this on checkbox's side.
Importance: Low as it affects an "unusual configuration" (it's the first
and only report of this kind we have).

I'm curious, though, on the source of this package, where did you get
it? I'd appreciate if you could point me to the source, also it would be
interesting to have the output of this command:

apt-cache show lexmark-08z-series-driver

This is to determine what is wrong with that package and perhaps inform
its maintainers that their control file is malformatted.

Thanks!
