Package: gnome-terminal
Version: 2.22.1-1
Severity: minor
Hi,
Back in February there was a discussion on debian-devel about descriptions
of some packages that include lists which shouldn't be reformatted.
It's at:
http://lists.debian.org/debian-devel/2008/02/msg00695.html
If you look at your package description on:
http://packages.debian.org/unstable/gnome-terminal
then you can see the problem.
The list in the description gets reformatted.
You can prevent this by starting a line in the Description field with two
spaces as per:
http://www.debian.org/doc/debian-policy/ch-controlfields.html#s-f-Description
The lines in your package that could be fixed are:
- Access a UNIX shell in the GNOME environment. - Run any application that is designed to run on VT102, VT220, and xterm
terminals.
Thanks
