Bug#1177: seyon has bad control file
Package: seyon
Version: 2.14c
It is not possible to install Seyon (with any non-prehistoric version
of dpkg). This package should be withdrawn ASAP. It probably makes
the non-free/Packages file invalid, for starters.
dpkg: error processing ./nonfree-binary/seyon-2.14c.deb (--install):
parse error, in file `/var/lib/dpkg/tmp.ci/control' near line 5 package `seyon':
`Depends' field, syntax error after reference to package `xbase1'
