Bug#1502: Uniform lists in debian.control



Package: ltxtool ltxgraph term    ical  mtools   wu-ftpd
Version: 1.0-3   0.7b-1   2.3.5-5 1.9-1 2.0.7-12 2.4-13
Libc: libc.so.4.6.27
Kernel etc: Linux eb 1.2.10 #1 Tue Jun 13 18:37:28 EST 1995 i486
Reporter: repair 0.1
Subject: Formatting description in debian.control

All the above listed packages have a list of items in their description
in debian.control. In order to improve dselect and how it is presented
to the user it would be better to use a uniform way of listing these.

A list like this (MODERATE?):
- Item 1
- Item 2

Or a list like this (BEST?):
* Item 1
* Item 2

Or something like this (BEST?):
* First tool:  Short one line description of the first tool.
* Second tool: Short one line description of the second tool.
* Third tool:  Short one line description of the third tool.

Or a little more confusing list like this (WORSE?):
o Item 1.
o Item 2.

Whatever you think is the best, but let's agree on one way of doing
this.

Erick
