For example wrap-and-sort could format it nicely. Having some glue code for software-center would be nice. Third idea is to write a checker tool that compares debian/copyright with the file headers (licensecheck output). The Files field contains a space separated files list. What to do if the file name contains a space? How should this space escaped? -- Benjamin Drung Debian & Ubuntu Developer
