[Debian-med-packaging] Syntax Check for DEP-5 copyright files [Was: r7276 - in trunk/packages: abacas/trunk/debian acedb/trunk/debian bagphenotype/trunk/debian gamgi/trunk/debian libace-perl/trunk/debian]

Hi,

I became aware of bug #633779 and started fixing some copyright files
according to the

   grep-dctrl '' debian/copyright > /dev/null

check.  It is mostly blank lines where at least a '.' should be.  Please
verify your copyright files as long as lintian is not doing this for
you.

Kind regards

        Andreas.

   trunk/packages/bagphenotype/trunk/debian/copyright
   trunk/packages/gamgi/trunk/debian/copyright
   trunk/packages/libace-perl/trunk/debian/copyright
Log:
Made some copyright files which are claiming DEP5 compatibility save to pass
   grep-dctrl '' debian/copyright > /dev/null
without error.  There are a lot more instances of this problem.
