Package: dpkg-dev
Version: 1.10.20
Severity: normal

dpkg-buildpackage griped with a warning about an unrecognized control
field when it built my package with "Essential: no" in the debian/control
file.  As soon as I removed the "Essential: no", the warning went away.

The exact warning message was: dpkg-source: warning: unknown information field in input data in general section of control info file

Changes: 
 dpkg (1.10.22) unstable; urgency=low
 .
   The DebConf4 Release.
 .
   This release is mostly intended to mop up the minor and trivial bug
   fixes in the list and clear out the documentation changes.  As such,
   it should be treated with even more suspicion than is normal.
 .
   * Use colouring to break cycles earlier to avoid long loops whilst
     installing or configuring packages.  Closes: #232445, #246857.
   * Don't try to configure packages that disappeared in the same
     run.  Closes: #202997.
   * Fix segfault when "gcc -dumpmachine" returns a non-matching triplet.
     Closes: #211850.
   * Remove restriction that package names be at least two characters long.
     Closes: #237734.
   * Fix dpkg-source (actually controllib.pl) to output the field name
     properly again.  Closes: #226931, #246595.
   * Make dpkg-scanpackages output Origin and Bugs fields with proper
     casing.  Closes: #154422.
   * Add support for DOS line-endings to md5sum.  Closes: #246103.
   * Fix start-stop-daemon segfault on Hurd.  Closes: #133640.
   * Allow dpkg-shlibdeps to run as non-root users.  Closes: #96881.
   * Correct various compiler warnings.  Closes: #229766.
 .
   * Architecture Support:
     - Added x86-64 (x86_64 / amd64).  Closes: #238483, #241938.
     - Added i?86-gnu (Hurd).  Closes: #216695, #236331.
     - Added i386-kfreebsd-gnu and i386-knetbsd-gnu.  Closes: #250176.
   * Packaging:
     - Create $(docdir) even when --without-sgml-doc is passed so the
       ChangeLog can be installed.  Closes: #137719.
     - Stop hardcoding the list of manual page languages in debian/rules,
       so we include Spanish, Russian and Brazilian Portugese.  Closes: #245994.
     - Quote LDFLAGS in debian/rules to allow multiple options.
       Closes: #230242.
   * Documentation:
     - Move dpkg-scanpackages and dpkg-scansources to section 1 as they
       are user tools.  Closes: #114946.
     - Correct hyphen characters in manpages.  Closes: #212284, #247086, #226800.
     - Remove obsolete references to the Debian Packaging Manual.
       Closes: #122910, #140695.
     - Correct 'n' and 'p' key descriptions in dselect help message.
       Closes: #120562.
     - Add --force-bad-verify to dpkg manpage.  Closes: #192812.
     - Correct dpkg manpage to refer to --force-remove-reinstreq instead of
       -non-existant --force-reinstreq option.  Closes: #232831.
     - Correct documentation of --compare-versions arguments.  Closes: #232317.
     - Correct usage of "et al" to "et al.".  Closes: #230751.
     - Add dpkg-reconfigure(8) to SEE ALSO section of dpkg(8).  Closes: #233282.

     - Correct documentation of update-alternatives --install.  Closes: #179648.
