Thanks Justin for reviewing, I've incorporated all your suggestions.

I guess this package is only interesting for people who are familiar with control files and these people probably know that Ubuntu uses the same file format as Debian. The updated description: Description: Debian control data to XML converter This package contains the dctrl2xml tool that converts Debian control data into an XML representation. It can be used to convert data which is normally found in debian/control, .changes, .dsc, Packages, Sources, and similar files to XML. . For most fields dctrl2xml just uses the field name as element name and the field data as element content. For other fields, such as package interrelationship fields (Depends, Build-Depends, etc.) or the Files field in .changes or Sources files, dctrl2xml additionally parses their field data to represent it in a more fine-structured form.
