This is a bit odd.

On my own system:

  $ dpkg --contents ../xen-utils-common_4.8.3+comet2+shim4.10.0+comet3-1+deb9u4_all.deb |grep README.comet
  -rw-r--r-- root/root      2896 2018-02-07 16:56 ./usr/share/doc/xen-utils-common/README.comet

But the file being distributed by Debian is different.

This was a mistake.  I wasn't thinking clearly.

I think the file being distributed by Debian must have been built on
ARM.

Anyway, thanks for the report and I think you have indeed pointed to
the correct fix.

Ian.
