Dependency fields: Updated maint-guide contents, question on style



Hi,

In 4.1:

| The fields may restrict their applicability to particular versions of
| each named package.  These versions are listed in parentheses after each
| individual package name, and should contain a relation from the list
| below followed by the version number.  The relations allowed are:
| <literal>&lt;&lt;</literal>, <literal>&lt;=</literal>,
| <literal>=</literal>, <literal>&gt;=</literal>, and
| <literal>&gt;&gt;</literal> for strictly lower, lower or equal, exactly
| equal, greater or equal, and strictly greater, respectively.  For
| example,

In this text, I wonder the following part of text is a bit skewed.  What
is the subject of "should contain":

| These versions are listed in parentheses after each individual package
| name, and should contain a relation from the list below followed by the
| version number.  

I am changing this to:

The restriction for each individual package is listed in parentheses
after its name, and should contain a relation from the list below
followed by a version number value. 

I hope this is OK.
