Bug#578613: dpkg-cross: also seen on newer unstable dpkg (1.15.7)

[Hector Oron <hector.oron@gmail.com>]

severity important
thanks

Hello,

  I raise the severity of the bug, as dpkg 1.15.7 has just landed on
unstable and shows the bug as well,

ii  dpkg                                 1.15.7

$ LANG=C sudo dpkg-cross -a armel -b linux-libc-dev_2.6.32-11_armel.deb
Building linux-libc-dev-armel-cross_2.6.32-11_all.deb
dpkg-deb: parse error, in file
'/tmp/dpkg-cross.wvOuRldB/dst/DEBIAN/control' near line 10 package
'linux-libc-dev-armel-cross':
 duplicate value for `Provides' field
dpkg-cross: building package with dpkg-deb -b failed.
dpkg-cross: conversion of linux-libc-dev_2.6.32-11_armel.deb failed.


This is probably due to a parsing error while having two Provides:
fields written in the control file.
