Bug#466402: Description formatting could be improved

Package: libmath-nocarry-perl
Version: 1.11-1

The description for this package looks a little silly at:
http://packages.debian.org/sid/libmath-nocarry-perl
because you haven't used two spaces in the description before the:
	1234
	+ 5678
	------
	6802
bit.

If you do then it'll be rendered inside a <pre> and other tools will
similarly leave it alone.
