[R-pkg-team] Bug#982375: dh-r: dh-update-R removes comment from d/control

[Andreas Tille]

Package: dh-r
Version: 20201129
Severity: normal

Hi,

dh-update-R silently removes lines like

   # Testsuite: autopkgtest-pkg-r

This kind of comments should remain in d/control.

Kind regards

     Andreas.
