Package: libsasl2-2
Version: 2.1.22.dfsg1-22
Architecture: armel
Source: cyrus-sasl2


Hi!

Here is a small problem with this package (Or I think it comes from the package)

# dpkg -l
dpkg-query: erreur d'analyse syntaxique, dans le fichier
« /var/lib/dpkg/status » près de la ligne 1760 paquet « libsasl2-2 »:
  le nom de champ « suse » doit être suivi de deux points (:)

In english it says that the field "suse" should be followed by ':'
but in fact there's a space missing at the beginning of the line.

In the Description:
   .
   Any of: ANONYMOUS, CRAM-MD5, DIGEST-MD5, GSSAPI (MIT or Heimdal
   Kerberos 5), NTLM, OTP, PLAIN, or LOGIN can be used. If you intend to
-suse this package on a server that provides SASL authentication, then
+ suse this package on a server that provides SASL authentication, then
   you must install some of the libsasl2-modules* packages.

Thanks.
Have fun
