Control: reassign -1 devscripts
Hi,
The RTS parser can already cope with non-deb822 input. However, the
caller has to opt-in to it and wrap-and-sort never that that.
I am doing a patch for this to have wrap-and-sort cope with invalid
syntactical input. It will come with degradation of features - notably,
the package sorting will be disabled as otherwise we risk moving a
paragraph out of a templated section (and if that templated section is a
for-loop, you now get a completely different result).
To my knowledge, there is nothing for `python3-debian` to do at the
moment. Reassigning to devscripts for doing the patch.
Best regards,
Niels
